Darlene:
In that earlier episode where Elliot goes through his 'detox' hallucinations, Elliot sees a little girl at the apartment where he'd gone to get some morphine/heroin. That little girl, might be Elliot's sister Darlene as a youngster. If so that serves to indicate a family connection between Elliot and Darlene. So...if Darlene isn't in his cd family album, she's in that detox delusion.
What if, in that detox hallucination, Elliot is re-living an event that actually occurred. There was a shooting. Someone took a bullet in the gut. Perhaps that is where a tragedy did occur in Elliot's childhood. A drug deal gone bad, someone in Elliot's family dies there and then.
The scene with Angela and Darlene at the ballet class. In that episode it was revealed that they had known each other for a long time,.... since childhood.
In one of the later episodes we see Darlene with an unidentified man, evidently successful because of view of NYC from his luxurious penthouse.
It appears they've shared the bed overnight. Out on the penthouse balcony their conversation indicates knowledge of F-society and its impending operation.
After he leaves the penthouse, presumably for work, we see Darlene taking above said gentleman's pistol from his safe. She has to figure out his password to get into the safe, but she already knows it because she has known the guy and how he thinks. From the safe she gets his gun and then later toward the end of the episode, she hands the gun to Elliot at the Cony Island F-society headquarters.
Mr. Robot.(Slater). We now associate Mr. Robot as Elliot's dead father. But all bets are off. Sam Esmail (series creator) is making up the rules of this drama and he's not above misleading us all.
Mr. Robot might be real,if...... Elliot himself is a delusion. What if Elliot isn't Elliot. Whoever he might be, he just dreamed up this identity in order to obscure his real self.... He could be an E-corp insider.
What if Mr. Robot is real and assumes his son Elliot's identity as he would be had Elliot the child lived long enough to grow up....?
The moment I think some part of this series seems solid, it becomes possible to work around it with another flight of paranoid fantasy.
Tyrell: what if Elliot is really the product of Tyrell's psychotic imagination?
Did Tyrell really murder Sharron Knowles? Or is that another figment.
To us Tyrell seems real because he and his wife and baby are living in that brownstone. This we think cements his existence. Yet Mr. Robot's meeting with Tyrell in that limo could indicate that the meeting occurred with Elliot and Tyrell....or......if Tyrell is actually another paranoid figment of Elliot's imagination. Or was it Elliot talking to Elliot?
Or, if Elliot is really just an invention in someone else's deluded mind, that person just plays these invented characters out in his very creative yet troubled mind .... while he resides in a padded room wearing his customary straight jacket. (which is where I might end up should I continue to dwell on this enigmatic hacker series.)
All bets are off. What's real is hard to nail down because Esmail the series creator doesn't want to give us very much substance.
