It's an analogy. The soft pastel colors represent the idealistic world that has been created thanks to the ratings emulating a perfect society. If you see the other scenes, when she talked to the truck driver or in the jail, colors are not pastel anymore. It's because the vibrant gray colors represent the reality.
It's ironic how she's being punished for shouting and acting out, when the attendant was being furiously passive aggressive which most people would say is much worse.
Call the supervisor for her incompetence. Seriously, in a world and society like that, leverage yourself into getting her fired for her human side showing, completely unacceptable the way she smiled with menace, what a tool.
Guys, it’s pretty obvious this is the one customer she did that to since her rank must be high for that kind of job.

Respect to Airport Security Guy in this scene. He straight up killed it with the whole “please remove yourself from the airport *immediately*” line, while grinning like that.
It was all a blessing in disguise for her. She was so fake and wrapped up in material goals, she ended up being really rude to those who genuinely cared for her (her brother) while craving the approval of a fake school friend who had slept with her boyfriend behind her back. There are a lot of people depressingly like this, everything they do is centred around making a social media post.
@@Sponsi_PL Yes, she was fake. That's literally the plot of the ENTIRE episode is how she pretends to be something she's not the ENTIRE episode to get friends/scores/everyone to like her only to realize none of her so called friends actually cared about her. She was being fake, as was most others in the episode. Her brother was genuine (and had a low score for it) as was the truck driver. People with lower scores were the ones who were real people, whereas the high scoring people were fake.
I don't understand why she couldn't have just stepped out for like 5 mins and helped some people with their luggage or something. She was a 4.18. It would have taken no time at all to boost her rating and then she'd be on the plane.
Or she could post some more pictures on social media to get her rating up. Theres lots of things she couldve done but the plot needed her to "nosedive"
So, apparently in this universe, If you nice to everyone = Low Ratings If you fake to everyone = High Ratings If you're yelling = Double Damage Man, I'd rather die than live in this universe
This episode probably hit the most close to home for me out of any black mirror episode. I think toxic positivity may very well be the most agonising aspect of my daily existence. I find the denial of the normal range of human emotion to make the general difficulty of life substantially more challenging to tolerate. It’s like stubbing my toe on something and being shamed for screaming out in pain over it, but multiplying that over every individual hardship life throws at me.
Wecome to reality! Thats how stupid people live today. Stupid likes and unlikes from social media! Stupid generations brainwashed by multibillion rich people.
This scene scares the life out of me... Image China's Social Credit System coming to play in the West? There be more homeless on the streets and turning the west into a third world shit hole because people will be be owned or turned into a NPC.
I think this episode is a good example of how small mistakes or tiny mishaps can snowball and that even good people can fall from grace. To anyone whose had a really bad day that's escalated to a bad years it's probably relatable. This kind of culture doesn't seem very forgiving of imperfections and mistakes.
Kayla N I think the ending was perfect. She didnt have to pretend for anyone anymore as she was aa low as she could be. She was finally free to shout whatever profanities she wished.
I understand your POV, but at the moment in the party when it all crumbled down, I was wanting that to be the moment that she unleashes on the friend about how she really felt about the system. She didn't show balls until jail...and for me I didn't care by then.
Kayla N She talks about the system's reality, shocks ALL of them. That's what the viewer (even me) is expecting, right? For me, it's cliché, and if really happened, none of them would care anyways, they just wanted 4,8+ rating. Well, I liked the ending, it jumped off the expectad, and transitioned well how the protagonist fell from "Oh hello give me 5 stars" to "Fuck the dumb system, Im out and free.". But again that's just my opinion, I think it's interessing talk about two point of views
I think in a society like that, nobody can argue against it. They expect you to just smile and cooperate, because y'know, need dem points. Pretty messed up
Votes on RUclips will act the same way in the social credit system. Because it’s You in a test TUBE, being examined, judged, and censored by ghost banning so only the brainwashed will have a vote, and the majority opinion
This show is amazing. It’s so surreal of how technology is possible going to take advantage of how we act, talk, see, and go with our lives. This episode was AMAZING Bryce Dallas Howard is an AMAZING actress who played her part so well like that was Emmy award WORTHY
Honestly it's getting that way. I've had girls turn down dates after they saw my social media profiles and thought I didn't have "enough" social media followers and comments on my posts.
@@joeburreaux7953 lol where's the proof that that's the reason you were rejected? I HIGHLY doubt it. More like your social media showed non-catfish pictures of what you really look like and they didn't measure up to your curated dating profile pictures, OR they spotted some other red flag (no mutual friends so they didn't feel safe meeting up with you, lack of basic info to confirm age, job, etc). One of the two. Sorry bud but in real life people dont care as much about this shit. This isn't anywhere near a black mirror episode.
The way people in the queue are taking the authoritarians side and sneering at her, never able to see how they could be in her place one day. Two years ago I wouldn't have believed it. Now it's Feb 2022, post Covid and the way I have seen people treat others, even fellow family members, I certainly can believe it, in fact I would expect it. People worry about us ending up in some dystopian world without realising we are already in it.
Right, society went exactly back to they way it was but it's only now authoritarian because of "covid", and not like decades of rampant capitalism... When exactly are the vaccines supposed to kick in and start killing people again? I forget. You people genuinely can't handle being wrong and it's so funny 😂
MasterIrukaPlays If you think he's awesome, you're missing the point of the episode. the airport doesn't notify the women that the flight has been cancelled beforehand, and doesn't offer anything other than a sorry, go fuck yourself, in polite pretense when the customer's flight has been cancelled last minute. that lady is going to miss a wedding she is the maid of honor for. Not only this, but they won't give her a seat on another flight, even though in real life, this would be expected of the airport staff. The airport staff member is being unreasonably pretentious and hostile to the point in which the lady cannot keep up the act anymore and starts to get reasonably frustrated, but because everyone in this dystopian society is fake, her expression of frustration offends them and they rate her down for being honest. The security officer marks her down for intimidation and profanity, even though the flight attendant refused to allow the woman to speak to a supervisor. Which means she doesn't even have the correct rating to get home in a proper car. So basically in other words, the woman booked a flight and got scammed out of her flight. In real life, such disgraceful behavior from a company or a member of customer service would result in a lawsuit. But in this episode, because of the dystopian setting, bureaucracy prevails over pragmatism and shows that human beings in this society are too narcissistic and pretentious to help one another. Her flight could have been fixed, if rating was simply rounded up in emergency situations, but in this episode, people rate eachother down out of spite, and rate each other up for pretentious reasons. The security guard isn't awesome, he is a physical extension of the dystopian setting this episode was based on.
Crazy how an airline can just cancel her flight without notice or offering alternatives - and then just be like "I'm sorry. And also if you complaint then we'll downrank you"
IDC This is like privilege. She avoided her coworker when he needed her help because she was concerned about her image. Understandably, none of the other people who looked like him in this episode had any empathy for her because people like her don't help people like them in their time of need.
Man, Michaela Coel is an awesome actress. She’s so overly polite and uptight here, and you see her characters in Chewing Gum and I May Destroy You and they are so out there. She’s so talented. 😁
its coming. Agenda 2030 will bring Social Credit Score System (you don't want any Government mandated Flu shot? you will not be able to Fly) Cashless society and ID2020 is just a few of the goodies coming with Agenda 2030
I thought socialism was about getting rid of class society The exception is that in the Chinese system you're rated by the authorities, not ordinary citizens.
“Due to your ranking....” ugh this is so relatable as a mortgage professional. I sound like a broken record always saying “due to your credit score...”
I love how people expect you to be polite even when they are screwing you over. The entire conversation becomes about you being impolite and nobody cares that you got screwed over.
Pretty much exactly how abuse and gaslighting works. The abuser just makes your life a hell and you're not allowed to question any of it. Otherwise you become "ungrateful" and "rude".
This episode is so close to my heart, the way it takes a dig at social media and standings is amusing and scary. I wish I could watch the episode for the first time all over again, it was an impeccable journey.
This episode still stays with me to this day, sometimes I remember scenes from this episode while having a certain real life situation and thinking, how would this develop if we had this system?
The scene was meant to have a hint of comedy to it with the flight attendant being so fake nice and smiling threatening security Guard. People are usually really nice or really rude, not this odd middle agro, so why are people in the comments so mad?
One thing concerns me. When Lacie is at the desk she is 4.183. When she swears the three people behind rank her down. However when security docks her one full ranking point she becomes 3.183. So it means that the three people did not have any effect. Any thoughts on this?
I know you posted this two months ago but I'd like to throw my two cents in. I'm curious that perhaps as a rating system there are probably different ranks of 'civilians' ranking? Businesses and authorities rating might weigh more then other people's?
I noticed that too. My only thought is that it was a mistake on the producers' part. Any downvote would at least knock it down a few hundredths of a point.
Stephen Banks lol this was posted ages ago but it kind of reminds of how police and security are in this world. They are automatically higher than everyone else with police brutality and the little punishments they get. Sentences are much higher for assaulting an officer compared to assaulting another person. It kinda reflects how much power they have.
That was the whole point for security though... I’m guessing in their world any physical/verbal aggression is highly frowned upon so they just hit you where it hurt - your status (for control)
What I love about this episode is that all these seemingly terrible things that happen to the lead in such quick succession ultimately leads to her freedom from THE one terrible thing which is the rating system.
This is so scary tbh, its kinda happening right now. You are labeled as a bad person just for not walking around with a smile and being nice to everyone. How about we let people do what they want as long as it's not hurting others physically?
Literally. The World Health Organization is trying to implement biometric I.D. and most countries signed off on it, if something isn't done every citizen will be tracked and monitored and this wouldn't be far off! 😱 Please share to family and friends close to you if you think they'll care, cause I for one do not like the idea! I'm sure you wouldn't either but it's not wide spread knowledge.
This reminds me back in early days in college: I was pretending to be something I am not, pretending to like things I actually hate, and when I failed a whole semester, I realized that didn't take me anywhere, I quit college, erased my Facebook friends and adopted a Tyler Durden personality. And things started to look better
Kyle Campbell Dude, this is so interesting. In in that kind of place right now and I just feel like quiting and launching myself to some crazy experiences for the sake of living.
It just science-fiction but you can relate perfectly. You know, today we already have a generation so eager for "the like". And social networks (like YT) that ban you for stupid reasons just like an opinion that are not allowed by current political correctness.
The thing I loved about this episode was the ending with her and the random guy each in their own jail cells giving each other a piece of their minds until they collapse in laughter and relief. Demonstrating that only in prison could you be real and not have to worry about what you said ect ect.
I liked this episode. It describes how I feel on a daily basis. Every time I look up, I see so much “be nice” “only be kind” “never have a bad day” “never say something rude whether you meant it or not” “don’t feel negative ever.” “Don’t ever have a bad day.” “Don’t ever be human.” “Don’t get annoyed.” “Don’t get frustrated.” “Always smile.” “Fake your true feelings to protect others feelings.” “Wear a ‘mask’ every single day.” It’s so annoying and exhausting how people think that’s what you’re supposed to do as a human. You are not. I loved this episode.
Scary to think that this is happening right now due to all of people has a cellphone and connection in social. Media. We all have bad days and melt downs and cannot help but to outburst sometimes in public. Then someone just record us and post it to internet.
I agree, were all human after all. But some meltdowns truly do show ones heart, and some things people say are just too vile. BUT I don't think this system would ever work, this wouldn't make someone a better person
Michaela Coel's show Chewing Gum is pretty funny. She has a great screen presence. She also wrote the episodes AND the music for the show. (See if you can spot her in The Last Jedi too!)
In some ways this isn't really fantasy. I grew up being pressured to smile at all times and never show impatience. It left me very jaded as an adult. My grandfather was a pastor, and had to be upbeat with everyone, but when he got home he became very sour with his family.
The part where she’s like “I’ve called security” but there was no visible movement along with her passive aggressive tone is fucking hilarious man😂😂😂😂😂
She cud have got some points, gone and praised the toilet attendant or something and come back in 5 mins then got on the 4.2. Yeah i know just frustrated!
People think this can’t happen. It’s already happening in China. If a person’s social score is too low, he or she won’t be able to leave the country or get a certain apartment.
The irony is that all the RUclips comments say how horrible this is to do to somebody and yet we are guilty of doing exactly this when we comment on a video showing somebody in a bad light, we don’t understand the context and whether that person is right or wrong their reaction no matter how strong has a whole string of context none of us no anything about. It takes a lot for me to reach boiling point but I certainly have had several of those moments in my life, I couldn’t imagine being judged and rated for those moments where I was simply being a human being dealing with hardship by displaying emotions.
Remember that controversy a few years ago when a woman was arguing with some black kids over a bike, and the internet piled on her, made her out to be a racist and a karen, she lost her job, and it actually turned out she paid for the bike and the black kids really were trying to steal her money?
@IAmTheStig32 Exactly, there are so many videos I see that have been shot and edited in a way to purposely put somebody in a bad light when it’s actually the one recording who is the perpetrator. You see it all the time with recordings of road rage or any video saying “see what this Karen tried to do” when often the women (even though she could’ve dealt with it better) likely had a very good reason to say something but of course idiots on the internet don’t have the capacity to think for themselves so they just pile on the abuse.
The scary part about this show is just how accurate some episodes are to real life. This one being the scariest and closest to what we're seeing now. I mean hell one country already has a social credit score and we basically have a faux one at this point.
This scene hurts so much. She’s showing signs of being human and being judged so harshly for it.

- you can accidentally vote for someone who has completely opposite tastes as yours (even if there doesn't seem to be much room for differences of tastes in this universe anyway) and ruin the credibility of a social profile you have worked on all your life
- and the simple fact that even if you explained why you did it, it's showing empathy, and it's made clear that empathy is tacitely forbidden in this universe, appearances matter more.

It was all a blessing in disguise for her.
She was so fake and wrapped up in material goals, she ended up being really rude to those who genuinely cared for her (her brother) while craving the approval of a fake school friend who had slept with her boyfriend behind her back.
There are a lot of people depressingly like this, everything they do is centred around making a social media post.
SHE was fake? SHE?
@@Sponsi_PL Yes, she was fake. That's literally the plot of the ENTIRE episode is how she pretends to be something she's not the ENTIRE episode to get friends/scores/everyone to like her only to realize none of her so called friends actually cared about her. She was being fake, as was most others in the episode. Her brother was genuine (and had a low score for it) as was the truck driver. People with lower scores were the ones who were real people, whereas the high scoring people were fake.
She ended up in jail lol
@@traviswonders
And most of all, she was fake to herself (if that phrasing makes any sense)
@@traviswonders I haven't seen that episode but according to what you're saying I'm the 'realest' person on earth.
I don't understand why she couldn't have just stepped out for like 5 mins and helped some people with their luggage or something. She was a 4.18. It would have taken no time at all to boost her rating and then she'd be on the plane.
She might have got downvotes for being a kiss ass lol
Vincent Alexander Everyone was a kiss ass in that episode
true.
Or she could post some more pictures on social media to get her rating up. Theres lots of things she couldve done but the plot needed her to "nosedive"
It's because she is run out of time and logically if you in her position you can't think more calmly
That flight reception is so annoying
That's how this scene was so great!
She's pretty funny in Chewing Gum
That's the point. She's nasty nice on purpose.

So, apparently in this universe,

This episode probably hit the most close to home for me out of any black mirror episode. I think toxic positivity may very well be the most agonising aspect of my daily existence. I find the denial of the normal range of human emotion to make the general difficulty of life substantially more challenging to tolerate. It’s like stubbing my toe on something and being shamed for screaming out in pain over it, but multiplying that over every individual hardship life throws at me.
yes agreed
Beautifully said.

I think this episode is a good example of how small mistakes or tiny mishaps can snowball and that even good people can fall from grace. To anyone whose had a really bad day that's escalated to a bad years it's probably relatable. This kind of culture doesn't seem very forgiving of imperfections and mistakes.
That's my whole life. I must've said something when I was 7, I can't remember, and I was robbed of my life completely.

Thought this episode was underrated. One of my favorites of Season 3.
Cate M. If the ending wasn't so anticlimactic it would've been perfection.
Underrated? It's one of the only episodes to be nominated for multiple awards, and most people seem to consider it to be one of their favorites.
Kayla N I think the ending was perfect. She didnt have to pretend for anyone anymore as she was aa low as she could be. She was finally free to shout whatever profanities she wished.
I understand your POV, but at the moment in the party when it all crumbled down, I was wanting that to be the moment that she unleashes on the friend about how she really felt about the system. She didn't show balls until jail...and for me I didn't care by then.
Kayla N She talks about the system's reality, shocks ALL of them. That's what the viewer (even me) is expecting, right? For me, it's cliché, and if really happened, none of them would care anyways, they just wanted 4,8+ rating. Well, I liked the ending, it jumped off the expectad, and transitioned well how the protagonist fell from "Oh hello give me 5 stars" to "Fuck the dumb system, Im out and free.". But again that's just my opinion, I think it's interessing talk about two point of views
Ok but like why did they just cancel the flight and not do anything about it lol
Sam Asher I think it was because she wasn't at 4.2 anymore
It was poor customer service

The way people in the queue are taking the authoritarians side and sneering at her, never able to see how they could be in her place one day. Two years ago I wouldn't have believed it. Now it's Feb 2022, post Covid and the way I have seen people treat others, even fellow family members, I certainly can believe it, in fact I would expect it. People worry about us ending up in some dystopian world without realising we are already in it.
Right, society went exactly back to they way it was but it's only now authoritarian because of "covid", and not like decades of rampant capitalism... When exactly are the vaccines supposed to kick in and start killing people again? I forget.

Airport security guy was fucking awesome.
That's the same guy she wouldn't help early in the episode. Kharmas a bitch
Derrek Hamilton no it's not
doesn't he looks like bayek of siwa from assassin's creed origins?
MasterIrukaPlays
If you think he's awesome, you're missing the point of the episode.
the airport doesn't notify the women that the flight has been cancelled beforehand, and doesn't offer anything other than a sorry, go fuck yourself, in polite pretense when the customer's flight has been cancelled last minute.
that lady is going to miss a wedding she is the maid of honor for. Not only this, but they won't give her a seat on another flight, even though in real life, this would be expected of the airport staff.
The airport staff member is being unreasonably pretentious and hostile to the point in which the lady cannot keep up the act anymore and starts to get reasonably frustrated, but because everyone in this dystopian society is fake, her expression of frustration offends them and they rate her down for being honest.
The security officer marks her down for intimidation and profanity, even though the flight attendant refused to allow the woman to speak to a supervisor. Which means she doesn't even have the correct rating to get home in a proper car.
So basically in other words, the woman booked a flight and got scammed out of her flight.
In real life, such disgraceful behavior from a company or a member of customer service would result in a lawsuit. But in this episode, because of the dystopian setting, bureaucracy prevails over pragmatism and shows that human beings in this society are too narcissistic and pretentious to help one another.
Her flight could have been fixed, if rating was simply rounded up in emergency situations, but in this episode, people rate eachother down out of spite, and rate each other up for pretentious reasons.
The security guard isn't awesome, he is a physical extension of the dystopian setting this episode was based on.
Primal i just thought he was funny but ok
Yo the shade at the end lol
Crazy how an airline can just cancel her flight without notice or offering alternatives - and then just be like "I'm sorry. And also if you complaint then we'll downrank you"

One thing concerns me. When Lacie is at the desk she is 4.183. When she swears the three people behind rank her down. However when security docks her one full ranking point she becomes 3.183. So it means that the three people did not have any effect. Any thoughts on this?
I know you posted this two months ago but I'd like to throw my two cents in. I'm curious that perhaps as a rating system there are probably different ranks of 'civilians' ranking? Businesses and authorities rating might weigh more then other people's?
I noticed that too. My only thought is that it was a mistake on the producers' part. Any downvote would at least knock it down a few hundredths of a point.
yeah i saw this again today and noticed that for the first time
Stephen Banks lol this was posted ages ago but it kind of reminds of how police and security are in this world. They are automatically higher than everyone else with police brutality and the little punishments they get. Sentences are much higher for assaulting an officer compared to assaulting another person. It kinda reflects how much power they have.
That was the whole point for security though... I’m guessing in their world any physical/verbal aggression is highly frowned upon so they just hit you where it hurt - your status (for control)
Black Mirror is just one of a kind best series. They should continue the series for as long as possible

RPG Horror Freak good point from a logical perspective but she needed to "nosedive" in her rating for the sake of the plot, hence the episode title

Demonstrating that only in prison could you be real and not have to worry about what you said ect ect.
I liked this episode. It describes how I feel on a daily basis. Every time I look up, I see so much “be nice” “only be kind” “never have a bad day” “never say something rude whether you meant it or not” “don’t feel negative ever.” “Don’t ever have a bad day.” “Don’t ever be human.” “Don’t get annoyed.” “Don’t get frustrated.” “Always smile.” “Fake your true feelings to protect others feelings.” “Wear a ‘mask’ every single day.” It’s so annoying and exhausting how people think that’s what you’re supposed to do as a human. You are not. I loved this episode.

In some ways this isn't really fantasy. I grew up being pressured to smile at all times and never show impatience. It left me very jaded as an adult. My grandfather was a pastor, and had to be upbeat with everyone, but when he got home he became very sour with his family.
The part where she’s like “I’ve called security” but there was no visible movement along with her passive aggressive tone is fucking hilarious man😂😂😂😂😂
She cud have got some points, gone and praised the toilet attendant or something and come back in 5 mins then got on the 4.2. Yeah i know just frustrated!
She couldn't call a supervisor but called security with the _quickness_
People think this can’t happen. It’s already happening in China. If a person’s social score is too low, he or she won’t be able to leave the country or get a certain apartment.
The irony is that all the RUclips comments say how horrible this is to do to somebody and yet we are guilty of doing exactly this when we comment on a video showing somebody in a bad light, we don’t understand the context and whether that person is right or wrong their reaction no matter how strong has a whole string of context none of us no anything about. It takes a lot for me to reach boiling point but I certainly have had several of those moments in my life, I couldn’t imagine being judged and rated for those moments where I was simply being a human being dealing with hardship by displaying emotions.
Remember that controversy a few years ago when a woman was arguing with some black kids over a bike, and the internet piled on her, made her out to be a racist and a karen, she lost her job, and it actually turned out she paid for the bike and the black kids really were trying to steal her money?
@IAmTheStig32 Exactly, there are so many videos I see that have been shot and edited in a way to purposely put somebody in a bad light when it’s actually the one recording who is the perpetrator. You see it all the time with recordings of road rage or any video saying “see what this Karen tried to do” when often the women (even though she could’ve dealt with it better) likely had a very good reason to say something but of course idiots on the internet don’t have the capacity to think for themselves so they just pile on the abuse.
I really liked the tone and humor in this episode. Very satirical.
The scary part about this show is just how accurate some episodes are to real life. This one being the scariest and closest to what we're seeing now. I mean hell one country already has a social credit score and we basically have a faux one at this point.
It's called predictive programming. They show us what's coming.
