Episode Summary & Review

Summary

Elliot friends Ray, who he hopes can help delete Mr. Robot; Dom makes a major discovery; and Darlene questions whether the FBI or Dark Army is the bigger threat.

Our Take

A slow burn that mostly works because Dom’s trip to China finally gives the FBI investigation some real momentum. The Ray material is watchable but feels like stalling until the final scene hints at something darker. Darlene’s paranoia is well played even if it covers familiar ground. Not a standout hour, but the ending earns it.
