Mr. Robot S03E10 "eps3.9_shutdown-r" Recap


Santiago tries to take Darlene away. Dom catches him on the way out and questions his actions, leading to him knocking her out and taking her with Darlene. Elliot goes to an amusement park to talk to Mr. Robot and ask for his help in getting Darlene back. He admits that he missed Mr. Robot but had stopped talking to him because he was afraid of the part of himself that is Mr. Robot.

When Dom wakes, she tries to reason with Santiago but he will not be moved from his course. He brings the women to a barn that Irving arrives at, having brought Elliot along with him. Santiago says that Dom needs to be taken care of and Irving initially appears as if he'll kill Dom but kills Santiago instead, believing he has outlived his usefulness to the Dark Army. He informs Dom that she will now be the mole for the Dark Army and threatens her family to force her to comply.

Angela is visited by Price who confesses that he is her birth father. Whiterose is suffering from delusions and only got Angela involved in the destruction to spite him, leaving her devastated that there was no greater, higher purpose to all that is happened.

Whiterose's assistant Grant arrives at the farm, prepared to fill her order to kill the Aldersons, despite Elliot's Dark Army hack. Elliot is able to save Darlene and himself by coming up with a plan that will allow the plant to move to the Congo sooner. Whiterose watches everything from an online feed and has Grant kill himself, promising to reunite with him once the plan has been completed. Leon goes ahead and kills the other agents.

Dom is devastated to be the new mole and traumatised from the harrowing events she has been subjected to but gets Elliot access into the FBI server. Elliot discovers that Romero wasn't behind the encryption keys, but it was actually Mr. Robot that did so because it's what Elliot would eventually want. Elliot decides to work with Mr. Robot in order to go after the people actually responsible, that have now revealed their existence. Elliot sends out the data that will undo Five-Nine.

Darlene is walking to Elliot's apartment with a friend when she is confronted by Vera and her hired thugs.

Mr. Robot will return for season 4 on USA.

Mr. Robot S03E09 "eps3.8_stage3.torrent" Recap


Tyrell returns home and cries over the loss of his wife and child. Elliot wakes after being taken over by Mr. Robot and sees a message left behind that says 'they' own the FBI. Elliot believes the 'they' is referring to the Dark Army. The night before, Mr. Robot is shown to have visited Tyrell in his home and get into a fight when Mr. Robot taunts Tyrell with the memory of his dead wife. The fight is broken up by the arrival of Price who has come to announce that Tyrell will be the figurehead of the new CTO. Tyrell realises that the Dark Army are still using him as a puppet but that they have a weakness in the FBI.

When Elliot has woken and learned about the Dark Army being connected into the FBI, he goes over Trenton's email once more which informs him that Romero had kept a set of encryption keys of Five-Nine. These are necessary to reverse everything but they are now being kept in the FBI. Elliot wants to take on this job himself but Darlene tells him she needs to be the one to do it, as she is better connected.

Elliot goes off to force Irving to set a meeting for him with Whiterose while Darlene meets with Dom to try to get her badge information to break into the FBI. Elliot meets with Angela who is still delusional in her belief that Whiterose's plan that will undo everything. Elliot tells Angela that Whiterose exploited her vulnerability about their lost parents but Angela doesn't trust Elliot anymore. Some mystery men arrive and pick Angela up.

Darlene goes back to Dom's place and seduces her but gets caught trying to get access to her badge. Darlene relents and confesses to the FBI, also saying she knows the Dark Army owns them. Santiago hears this and calls Irving in a panic.

Irving and Leon facilitate a meeting between Elliot and Zhang's assistant as Elliot has made the claim that there is a Stage 3. The men scan Elliot's laptop which gives him access to the Dark Army.

Whiterose is angered to learn that it will take a month to move the plant to Congo. She moves ahead with permitting Elliot to die.

Mr. Robot S03E08 "eps3.7_dont-delete-me.ko" Recap


Elliot flashes back to his father dying before having a confrontation with Darlene in which he says that all of the antics he has used to try to stop Mr. Robot, from drugs to therapy, have ben unsuccessful. The world is now falling apart and Elliot blames himself for this. He wants to be alone now to try to figure things out. He begins to settle his affairs by giving away his dog to his neighbour, disposing of his Mr. Robot jacket, and going to Trenton and Mobley's families to pay his respects. He also buys a lethal amount of morphine pills, with a bit of difficulty since the drug dealer is suspicious of his motives for doing so.

Elliot intends to commit suicide and goes to Coney Island beach to do so. But before he can take the pills, he is interrupted by Mohammad, Trenton's younger brother, whom Elliot needs to look after since he followed Elliot there and doesn't know how to get back on his own nor does he know how to.  Elliot tries to bring Mohammad back home but his parents aren't there, having left him alone while going out. Mohammad convinces Elliot to take him to the movies but Mohammad runs off to a mosque when it was still playing. When Elliot arrives at the mosque, the two argue and Elliot admits to wishing he was dead. The two come to an understanding and Elliot returns Mohammad to his home and promises to take him to the movies again. Mohammad gifts Elliot with a lollipop since Elliot had said earlier that he was sick.

Elliot pays a visit to Mobley's brother once again and blackmails him into giving him the funeral he deserves with threats related to illegal ongoings with his law firm. He also requires that he be invited to the funeral and decides to not commit suicide. He then visits Angela's apartment and speaks to her through the door though she remains unresponsive. He brings up a "wishing game" they would play together when they were kids and declares how it has given him the will to live.

Elliot returns home, having retrieved his hoodie, and reinstalls his computer. It's then that he notices an old email Trenton had sent before her death in which she states there may be a way to undo the hack.

Mr. Robot S03E07 "eps3.6_fredrick+tanya.chk" Recap


Elliot seeks refuge by visiting Krista, his therapist. She has the opportunity to speak with Mr. Robot and their conversation leads her to uncover that Elliot may be involved in the ongoing attacks. Mr. Robot shares that only one location was supposed to be taken out and his ideas have been twisted into something beyond what he designed.

Darlene is alarmed when Angela asks if the people that died in the attack will be okay and come back. She steps out of the apartment to pick up some of her things and recollect herself.

Tyrell stay quiet while in custody of law enforcement. He identifies the leaders of fsociety that are planning another attack within 24 hours and the suspects are revealed to the public. Agent Santiago pays him a visit and turns off the cameras. He then informs Tyrell of Joanna's death and that Tyrell's son is currently in foster care. He threatens Tyrell that his son will become another statistic if he dares to go off the plan.

Irving makes Mr. Robot realise that the revolution he had planned was only able to happen because the elite allowed it. Now Price is ruined and Zhang insists on punishing him for disobeying orders and failing to control Angela and the lawsuit. Zhang will select a replacement and move the Washington Township plant to the Congo.

Leon kills Mobley's friend and forces Mobley and Trenton to help him bury the body in the desert. When they return from the desert, they are met by some Dark Army agents and Zhang's assistant. They show Mobley and Trenton code for a planned attack on air traffic and order them to shoot themselves in the heads. Dom observes the raid that leads to the official discovery of the bodies and the planted evidence that connects fsociety to Iran. Dom is shocked and begins to believe that the Whitehorse, the true mastermind of it all, will get away with everything.

Mr. Robot S03E06 "eps3.5_kill-process.inc" Recap


Elliot demands Angela give him answers about her involvement in Stage 2 but she refuses to give him anything. Through snippets of his memories Elliot is able to realise that Tyrell's location is the Red Wheelbarrow restaurant and heads out. He calls Darlene on the way and gives her the location to pass along to the FBI. Darlene is being ordered to convince Elliot to turn himself in but she only apologises to him for all that she's done.

The FBI agents go to their superior to ask for approval to go check the restaurant. However, the information gets back to the group and Tyrell must leave if he's not going to be caught. But Irving tells Tyrell that his plans to escape to Kyiv with his family aren't going to work out as he had originally planned. Irving passes along some instruction to Tyrell and orders him to burn those instructions afterward.

Elliot goes to the Stage 2 building and tries to stop the plan from proceeding but is repeatedly attacked by Mr. Robot who causes Elliot to self-harm and break equipment that would allow him to stop the plan.

Dom goes to the Red Wheelbarrow despite not getting permission to do so. She encounters a fire set by Tyrell in a back passageway but is unable to catch Tyrell before he escapes through a tunnel.

Darlene visits Angela and confronts her about her involvement in Stage 2. She threatens to report Angela to the FBI but Angela is unphased, saying that nobody will be hurt in the process.

Dom sees Tyrell run outside and get arrested in public while screaming out to stop the attack. Elliot believes he has finally stopped Stage 2 from moving forward and ponders what Whiterose's true plan is but his train of thought is interrupted by reports coming in of a series of explosions at the 71 other E Corp facilities that held the paper records that he redirected. Thousands are killed in the explosions and Elliot realises that he is to blame for the escalated scale of Stage 2.

Mr. Robot S03E05 "eps3.4_runtime-error.r00" Recap


Elliot has no memory of the past four days but heads into work on the day of the UN vote. He comes to learn that he has been fired from his job when he's unable to get into his company account (Angela had made the call to orchestrate Elliot's firing to keep him from interfering with their plans). He also discovers that Stage 2 is set to happen that day and his fail-safe was the only thing that prevented the Dark Army from blowing up a building.

Elliot attempts to shut down Stage 2 but has to run around the building to get away from security. He is eventually caught without being able to use the building's system to shut down Stage 2 so he tries to call in a bomb threat while by a large crowd on anti E-Corp protesters are loudly chanting outside. Darlene arrives at the protest and admits to Elliot that she has been working with the FBI and Angela is in cahoots with Mr. Robot. This allows Elliot to finally regain memories from the past four days.

The protesters escalate the situation to the point that they rush past the police barricade and run into the building. They spray-paint some walls and begin destroying computers. Workers are fearful for their safety, including Angela. She gets a call from Irving, who reveals that the riot is just a cover so that Elliot can copy important data from an HSM in a secure room which is necessary for Stage 2 to happen. Angela must fulfill this task and get Elliot what he needs. Angela is making her way through the building and hears that the UN has agreed to the annexation. A security guard is suspicious of her motives so she calls out to the protesters who then attack the guard and give her opportunity to get away. They continue to chase her but she manages to get herself into the room where she must retrieve the data for Elliot.

A woman enters the room Angela is working in and becomes suspicious of her but a protester breaks in and the woman maces him before running back out. Angela is disoriented by exposure to the chemicals but still gets into the back room and begins entering the coding instructed to her and getting the necessary data. She dons a hoodie and a mask and heads out into the chaos. Angela calls Irving and explains how she did the assignment instead of Elliot because she couldn't find him in the commotion and passes along the name of the woman that made her while she was working. She is then instructed to pass the retrieved data on to another Dark Army agent. The agent gives her a bag of food in exchange, leaving her shaken. She is then approached by Elliot in the midst of the sirens blasting, asking her if there is anything she wants to tell him.

Mr. Robot S03E04 "eps3.3_metadata.par2" Recap


Elliot shows up at Darlene's apartment and the two need to talk about their recent falling out. She wants to leave but he is insistent that she answer his questions about hacking her. She doesn't deny hacking him but refuses to let Mr. Robot hurt her again. Darlene gets Elliot to trust her enough to admit that Stage 2 was never called off. Elliot doesn't want Mr. Robot to have control over his life and wreaking havoc on others. Elliot admits that he wants to be the one to see where all of this will lead, which is why he hasn't turned them in to the authorities.

Elliot has grown suspicious that it's predominantly night time that Mr. Robot emerges to work on the larger plans so he asks Darlene to hide in Shayla's vacant apartment that night and follow him if he should go out. She does so and spots Mr. Robot meeting with Angela and heading down into a subway station together and loses them shortly after when they leave in a taxi.

Tyrell is outraged when he finds that Elliot has caused delays to some shipping records. Angela proposes they can move the paper records over the weekend, as only three days are left before Stage 2 will happen so time is of the essence. Tyrell and Mr. Robot get into a fight since Tyrell wants to take over the operation since he sees Mr. Robot as a liability. Mr. Robot grabs Tyrell by the throat and threatens him but Mr. Robot begins to glitch and Elliot emerges as himself. Once Elliot sees Tyrell and the room they're in, Angela tranquilises Elliot.

Angela tells Phillip Price to fire Elliot. She won't tell him that the reason is to keep him from interfering with the plans she has with Tyrell and the others but he agrees when she promises to owe him a favour. She also asks for discretion on the matter.

Tyrell wants to escape to Ukraine with his family after Stage 2 happens. Dom is able to track down the source of the new fsociety video and suspects it of being from the Dark Army.

Darlene meets with agents and agrees to follow up a new lead without wearing a wire. She also tells Elliot to get vengeance if anything should happen to her.

Mr. Robot S03E03 "eps3.2_legacy.so" Recap


Returning to the night of the hack, Mr. Robot takes over Elliot and tries to shoot Tyrell. The gun jams and Tyrell interprets this as a sign that they're destined to work together. He makes an impassioned speech on the matter and convinces Mr. Robot that he needs Tyrell for Stage 2. They are interrupted by Irving showing up with the Dark Army. Irving tells them that Gideon told the FBI that Tyrell shut down the honeypot and is now the prime suspect of the hack. They take him to a cabin so he can hide out and avoid being arrested.

Zhang orders his subordinates to frame Iran for being the origin of fsociety and also makes moves to help Trump get elected. Zhang has plans for virtually everyone, including Tyrell and Elliot.

Tyrell is ordered to have a psych evaluation and he breaks down in it but still claims he will always be loyal to Elliot. He is given secure access to engineer Stage 2 and Cisco's firmware, all the while fosciety will keep him hidden at the cabin and monitor what he does. Tyrell continues to work diligently but becomes increasingly disheartened and finally snaps when he reads reports about Joanna moving on romantically. He grabs a backpack, dons a hat and sunglasses, and goes for a walk. He is spotted by a local police officer and arrested. Tyrell breaks his thumb to try to get free from his handcuffs but by theme he gets his hand out of one side, an FBI Agent Santiago shoots the officer in the head, having been planted by the Dark Army. He is Dom's superior and reprimands him for allowing Tyrell to get away. He had to kill the officer to ensure no one else knows where Tyrell is.

Irving is able to calm Tyrell down by assuring him that he will be able to get his family back once this stage of the place is finished. Irving continues to monitor Elliot through Leon, while Tyrell is later brought to a hotel run by the Dark Army. Tyrell is looking forward to finally being able to see Elliot again. After their reunion goes wrong and he is forced to shoot Elliot, Angels tells him about how Elliot has a split personality. Elliot has surgery to remove the bullet and mend his wounds and afterwards, Mr. Robot emerges and smiles at Tyrell for sticking to the plan they had agreed upon.

Mr. Robot S03E02 "eps3.1_undo.gz" Recap


Elliot has started up his new job at E Corp and gradually begins to work his way up the power ladder. He uses his hacking prowess to expose lower executives that misbehave and even gets a middle manager to begin digitising their extensive paper records which will give him greater opportunity to search their company's infrastructure. He also moves much of it away from the Stage 2 building.

Scott Knowles is arrested for Sharon's murder while Tyrell's wife Joanna goes on television to give an interview declaring that she will always love Tyrell, who has been released and pardoned from his former charges of murder. While she is being driven home, someone releases another fsociety video to the public.

Dom and the FBI are shown to be interrogating Darlene that results in her giving in and admitting that Elliot had made a call to Tyrell while in prison. While Joanna is being driven home, her driver/security Mr. Sutherland has to pull over and deal with a distraught Derek who is ranting about how she lied to him and claimed that she loved him but instead went on television professing her love and loyalty to Tyrell. Derek attacks the car before it can drive away and shoots Joanna dead. Mr. Sutherland in turn shoots Derek dead while Joanna's baby cries with its mother's blood splattered across its face.

Darlene asks Elliot if she can stay at his place, having been shaken by her run-in with the FBI. Elliot reluctantly agrees but later is confronted by Mr. Robot and Darlene is severely frightened by the encounter and storms out of the apartment.

Philip Price is making power moves to push a plan for ECoin but has yet to get China on board. Zhang wants a UN vote. Price threatens him with plans involving China annexing Congo, but Zhang responds by revealing how he has power over Angela. Zhang is determined that Stage 2 will move forward on the day of the vote regardless of the outcome of the vote, as a punishment against Price.

Elliot finally agrees to let Mr. Robot come out during a therapy session, as he wants to make more changes to rid himself of this influence after what happened with Darlene. Mr. Robot tells Krista that he and Elliot were compromised. He accuses her of trying to destroy him and not understanding anything about what he is working towards. He refuses to talk to her any further and Elliot returns, none the wiser about what Mr. Robot was talking about when claiming they were compromised.

Lenny returns the sick dog to Elliot. Perhaps a canine companion will be good for Elliot's well-being. Only time will tell.

Elliot is able to figure out that Darlene has bugged his computer and consequently goes back to Darlene's FBI safe house even though he is aware that they are watching it.

Mr. Robot S03E01 "eps3.0_power-saver-mode.h" Recap


After Tyrell shoots Elliot in the abdomen due to the contingency plan Mr. Robot installed, ordering Tyrell to stop him if he tried to go against their plans, Tyrell is frantic in trying to save him. He calls Irving, a used car salesman that also is an agent for the Dark Army. Irving helps to clean up the situation and gets Angela's name given to him by a higher-up. Zhang is shown to be giving orders and expresses his intent that Elliot will die once he has completed his work for the Dark Army.

Elliot wakes a week after his shooting and finds he is in Angela's apartment. She tells him the electricity is out and has been so for the last week. She says the people Elliot is working with brought him to her apartment and didn't recognise any of them except for Tyrell. She was on her way to turn herself in to the FBI but was stopped by the Dark Army. Elliot wants to tell the police about what has happened but she pleads with him not to, saying if he does so she'll be killed. Elliot sets off to trace what has happened and to stop their plans.

Elliot returns to the firmware hack building but finds that it's empty. He is then reunited with Darlene and she demands answers from him about his disappearance and tells him that Cisco is dead. Elliot lies to her, claiming Tyrell wasn't involved in the plan, but shares other information with her about the back door into E Corp. The internet has been down for the last week so they will need to go to an underground hacker tournament to be able to get online so Elliot can close the backdoor. Though he is able to shut the backdoor, he and Darlene are spotted at the tournament by some Dark Army agents who force them out of the building before he can complete the rest of his work. They are helped by Irving, who arrives in a cab and offers them access to his laptop while he drives them to shake off the FBI tail that's been following them since they left the apartment. Irving calls in a false report on the car and the trio are able to stop for some food and have a discussion. Elliot calls off Stage 2, and Irving seemingly agrees to his demands. Elliot expresses guilt to Darlene about what his attempted revolution has caused, only worsening the problems he had hoped to fix.

Continuing to be consumed by his guilt, Elliot asks Angela to get him a job at E Corp so he can make things right. He also asks her to keep an eye on him and let him know if he slips back into being Mr. Robot, adding that she is the one that can tell since she knows him better than anyone else does. Elliot feels that Angela is the only person he can trust so she agrees to do so. But late that night, Mr. Robot emerges once again and Angela speaks to him and agrees to work with him to move forward with Stage 2. She brings him to Irving and Tyrell and reveals her intent to manipulate Elliot just as Mr. Robot does so that a new path can be laid to complete Stage 2. She is a firm believer in Whiterose's plan to destroy all that E Corp has ever done so that a new world can emerge.

Archer S6E9 - "Pocket Listing" Recap


Slater is tasked with giving the group their latest assignment which involves an elaborate set-up for them to swindle the Durhani royal family. They need to steal the hand prints and retinal scans of the prince while he is going on a tour of places to potentially live in the city. Cheryl is posing as a realtor who will show him her mansion with the intent that he'll possibly buy it. Archer, Pam, and Lana are posing as butlers/maids. Archer is determined to have sex with the queen but Pam questions the state of Archer's relationship with Lana, which seems to still be up in the air. Archer is appalled to realise that Pam may very well be his best friend.

Lana is told about Archer's plan to make her jealous by Cyril, who was hoping she'd turn to him to make him jealous but instead, Lana plans to just bang the prince instead. Gillette is supposed to be on site to handle things. Ray sprays the guards with a chemical that makes them need to use the bathroom immediately while Cheryl is showing the Queen and Prince around the garden. Slater is running the show and repeatedly tranqs Krieger because he has deemed him a nuisance.

Archer is in position for the next phase of the mission but Lana is nowhere to be found, though she's supposed to be with him. Cyril tells Archer of Lana's plans to bang the prince and he takes off in a rage to try to stop her. When Lana meets the prince, he immediately becomes aroused. The Queen is set to take an elevator ride with Pam while Lana will take the prince on a more scenic route. Archer tranqs Slater and tries to find Lana while Ray must fight off a monstrous man-eating plant.

Slater and Krieger wake and find their surveillance feeds in a state of disarray. Lana is well on her way to seducing the prince but Archer tranqs the prince, making him unable to proceed with the intercourse. Slater arrives, preparing to collect the hand prints and retinal scans of the prince but Archer tranqs him and gets into an argument with Lana over the state of their unresolved feelings but then the two begin to hookup. But before they can get anything going, the queen walks in in a rage and is tranqed too, but not before she calls for the guards who come running. Slater wakes and is enraged by the disarrayed state of the mission.

But Archer and Lana stay behind in a different secret room so they can hook up. Seriously.

Mallory is furious because now the Durhani ambassador will be recalled after he gives a damning speech at the UN. The group places the blame on Slater for making an overly-complicated hand and then Archer makes an insensitive joke about Ray losing his hand yet again.

Archer airs on Thursdays on FX at 10PM.

Archer S6E8 - "The Kanes" Recap


Lana and Archer take a trip to Berkeley so Lana's parents can meet their granddaughter. Lana stresses to Archer that he needs to make a better impression than the first time he met them, when showed up to dinner drunk as can be. Also, her parents are operating under the impression that Lana is studying to get her PhD (as is Archer), having no idea that their daughter is actually a spy. Lana tells Archer she'll kill him if he tells them.

Archer goes in the hot tub but is made uncomfortable when Lana's parents come in entirely naked and force Archer to be naked too. He makes things very awkward when he thinks that Lana's parents are propositioning him for a threesome when they were actually planning on sharing a secret. Things are interrupted when Lana's microbiologist father's research is stolen by a group of masked gunmen. Archer shoots after them and is able to shoot the driver which causes them to crash. Lana's parents demand to know why Archer has a gun but there's little time to talk as Archer, Lana, and Lana's father must chase the rest of the gunmen through the streets of San Francisco.

As this is going on, Krieger, Pam, Cheryl, Cyril, and Krieger's virtual girlfriend run out of gas in a rough neighbourhood while on their way to the league bowling night. Pam must then tow the car singlehandedly while no one else will help, though they certainly pretend to. Pam pushes the group to get rid of all the bowling balls so the car will be lighter and easier to tow. Cheryl does so but they end up hitting a car full of gang members. Pam recognises one of the gang members from their time in a fight club together and patches things up by promising that Krieger will fix the car while she takes him out to a titty-bar.

Lana's father reveals that his research was intended to be a new renewable fuel source out of algae which could reproduce infinitely and the only by-product would be water. It was potentially worth millions or even billions of dollars. As the chase carries on, Lana is forced to admit to her father that she is a spy. Lana's father is disappointed in Lana for not pursuing a career in science and that she could never tell her parents how she felt because of her fear of letting them down. Her father assures her that he and her mother will always love her even when she makes stupid decisions like having a baby with Archer.

Archer is preparing to ram the car full of gunmen but before doing so, he presses Lana's father to say what the secret was that he was planning on saying and it turns out it was that they wanted to invite Archer to the Kane family reunion. As the shootout was going on, they learn that the group of gunmen was a CIA-team led by Christian Slater, who says that the research is a threat to national security since it will flare up further conflict in the Middle East if no one needs their oil anymore. He then tells Lana's father to check his bank account, in which a large deposit has been sent and when he learns that this will be a monthly deposit for the rest of the life, he is more than happy to surrender his life's work. On the plane ride home, Lana apologises to Archer by hurting his feelings and not inviting him to the family reunion and Archer apologises for trying to have a three-way with her parents.

Archer airs on Thursdays on FX at 10PM.
