The license plate dqf-8093 on the stolen minivan was used in Rescue Me (2004) and Person of Interest (2011).

Keith David was also in Requiem for a Dream (2000), a movie with heavy heroin usage. In this episode, during Elliot (Rami Malek)'s opiate withdrawal induced hallucinations, Keith David plays the voice of Elliot's beta fish, qwerty.

Origin of the Title:

  • In computing, a daemon is a computer program that runs in the background rather than being operated by the user. The term was coined by Mac users at MIT to describe software, generally known in Mac parlance as system extensions, that keep the OS running smoothly.
  • The extension: .mp4 is a audio/video file format, commonly used for video files. It has replaced .avi as the most common format for illegal audio/video files.

A 1995 movie Hackers (1995) plays on the motel television. The movie follows the exploits of a group of gifted high school hackers and their involvement in a corporate extortion conspiracy which mirrors Elliot (Rami Malek) and fsociety actions in the show.

Romero (Ron Cephas Jones) breaks the fourth wall when he says "right now some writer's working hard on a TV show that'll mess up this generation's idea of hacker culture" referring to the show.

The voice of Elliot (Rami Malek)'s fish Qwerty is actor Keith David.

Mobley (Azhar Khan) mentions a 1982 movie TRON (1982). The movie tells the story of a computer programmer who is transported inside the software world of a mainframe computer where he interacts with programs in his attempt to escape.

1981 video game Donkey Kong is heard at fsociety base.

During his hallucinations Elliot (Rami Malek) sees Error 404 Not Found error message in the place where a house moments ago was standing. 404 error message is an H*TP standard response code indicating that the client was able to communicate with a given server, but the server could not find what was requested, referring to the house that Elliot was looking for.

Just before Elliot (Rami Malek) has his withdrawal hallucinations, the movie Hackers (1995) is being shown on the television in the motel. Jonny Lee Miller is one of the leads in Hackers (1995), and who is perhaps best known for his role as Sick Boy in Trainspotting (1996), a movie which not only similarly depicts withdrawal hallucinations, but centers around the the drug heroin, which is the drug Elliot takes in his first hallucination.

The episode opens with Elliot's plan to take down the analog records. The group then finds out that there are copies being made, so they will have to execute the plan within the next couple days. Unfortunately, Elliot's withdrawal kicks in, making him useless.

In the end, they have to get Elliot one more fix so he can function for the operation. This results in what was easily the episode's best scene. Elliot goes into this junkie house to get some drugs. The whole scene was done as one shot. It was truly intense, especially the ending.

This results in Elliot having hallucinations. The hallucinations lasted the next QUARTER of the episode. Don't get me wrong, they were fairly well done. Hallucinations can be truly boring and pretentious if done wrong. Luckily, they found a good balance of surrealism, symbolism, and hilarity. I loved the voice of the talking fish. But the segment just lasted too darn long.

This took time away from other elements that really needed more time. For example, Darlene and Trenton's meeting with the army of darkness. We didn't get to see what happened in the meeting, and we really needed to. Maybe they'll return to it later in the season, but even so, it was handled in a confusing way.

In the end, despite a few stumbles, it was still a pretty good entry into the series. And that one-shot sequence was AWESOME!!!

This has to be the most bizarre, but most engaging episode yet!. I was left questioning myself "what's happening" as there were so many clues that i had yet to find.

A large theme portrayed in this episode was reality, as i was left considering what scenes were real and what wasn't. Furthermore another theme was Demons, which also left me gripped wanting to find more as you go deeper into Elliot's mind.

The episode was evenly paced, and had some create music adding to the tension of this episode; which left me hanging on the edge of my seat. Angela and the F-society's character development was great, each character had their part and you slowly begin to get an insight into their lives.

We are still left to wonder if Mr.Robot is real, or whether half the time Elliot is tripping. But the overall surrealism of this episode is great. can't wait for the next one!

The reaction for this episode was generally mixed to negative, but I think it is better than people are saying. Yes, there are a pretty good amount of hallucination sequences, but I think they work for the most part. I say "for the most part," because there is a weird sequence involving Angela and Elliot that didn't make sense to the story and I thought was generally pointless. However all of the others were either poignant, relevant, or just entertaining to watch.

If that was the only problem I may have given it a nine, but sadly it was not. There was a really big event that was hinted at throughout the episode that ended up never happening. Instead it was replaced by the hallucination sequences, which kind of made me mad because I felt like the show accomplished nothing.

However, unlike the last episode, they actually did the character development thing right this time. I got a sense of who these people are without them beating me across the face with it. The consistent strong performances of the ensemble cast help with this, along with amazing direction. Mr. Robot has the best direction of a show since Fargo. Overall this episode is good, but I am looking forward to an increase in quality in the next couple ones.

I give Season One, Episode Four of Mr. Robot a seven out of ten.

This show is blowing me away. Quintessentially one of the grittiest shows that I've ever seen on TV, and I've been around for a long time. And this specific episode. I'm thinking that those who rated this episode didn't really understand it, not the subtly of it. Low 8s? Why? My guess is that most individuals who rated it haven't really experienced much in the way of life, or contrarily, have spent too much of their lives focused on a LED screen a foot away from their faces.

But that's OK. I 'get' where the writers are coming from. The tapestry they weave with their story-lines is...brilliant. Minor flaws with the computer engineering plot-line, but taken as a whole, I can overlook those to appreciate the bigger picture. Great stuff. The Game Of Thrones use to be at the top of my list - it just got bumped down a notch by Mr Robot.

This must be the most trippy episode in the season, if not in recent TV series so far. It's a mixed bag of impressive pacing and awkward presentation. The plan to physically hack Stone Mountain is progressing in highly fast pace, but Elliot suffers from personal bump as his addiction finally takes a toll on his mind and body.

The first half is superbly made, the build-up for heist aspect is interesting. It's certainly complex, yet the narration is clear enough for the viewer to understand and invest on. Shortly after, the merry band of hackers split into groups as Evil Corp deploys more security measure that has to be breached simultaneously.

Elliot is on the venturing group, but this is far from a happy road trip. Along the way he undergoes severe withdrawal effects, which ultimately leads him into old habits and extremely vague hallucination. The show spends a lot of time on this vivid imagination, down to talking fish and such.

It has good one continuous shot and presumably a few metaphors, but this dreamy sequence is unfortunately too unclear, or it tries to be too meta for its own good. Furthermore, it drags on for quite a bit as well as borderline creepy philosophy. It's simply an odd spectacle. For the other group, their subplot isn't really flushed out. The role they are given is pretty crucial, however there's lack of clarity on their scene, which perhaps is stored for later episode.

I appreciate the good cinematography for the continuous shot or the outdoor visual, and the episode does buildup tension. However, half of it is incredibly fuzzy. Mr. Robot tends to give such enigmatic narrative, yet it's always accessible. This time, it's a tad too vague to be relatable for casual viewing.

Sure, this episode was a departure from "normal" television, one hallucination after another, but it was also unpleasant to watch. Maybe I am no that curious about morphine withdrawal, maybe I simply enjoy a story that builds on itself. All I know is I kept pausing it to check how much longer I had to endure this mess, all the while deciding whether or not to quit watching the show altogether. I really wonder where all the buzz regarding this show comes from. Is there a small army of USA Network employees paid by the review to hype this mess? There are so many other better shows yet this one reigns in 9+ ratings? There may be a REAL Evil Corp, all those people behind the great reviews conspiring to waste our time watching this horrible excuse for entertainment.

Absolute crap, this series tries to be clever and panders to people of a Brian Griffin mentality of wow that's so clever when really it's just a load of rubbish.

The whole show seems to just rip off other things, e.g. his demon is the same as Dexter's dark passenger, his trophy case of cds is the same as Dexters blood slides and so and so on.

None of what happened in her developed the storyline and none of it left you thinking I want to know more. All I could think is when will this finish, get on with it, where are you going with this and I really can't be bothered with this show anymore.

The show had so much promise but it tries to be too clever, trying to catch you in with an internal narrative of who's controlling who, what's real and what's not real. The problem is I just don't care what's real anymore and I don't have any connection to any of the characters.

Rubbish, avoid if you haven't watched and save yourself 45 minutes of your life.

I watched season 1, episode 1 and thought "Hey, this is pretty good." Elliot was an interesting lead character, a neurotic computer programmer with a drug problem. He is also a hacker tackling cyber criminals from individual sex offenders up to world corporations run by the elite few. It also tapped into the disaffection with modern day life, false heroes, politicians, and technology out of control. 'Fuck society' was our anti-hero's mantra.

Three episodes later. Each got progressively worse. Episode 4 was a pile of crap. Few of the support characters are believable. The hacker group Elliot joined dedicated to freeing the world are boring and predictable. The most predictable thing was the politically correct casting, a black one, a hot one, a Muslim one, a fat geeky one, and a Hollywood "star" Christian Slater). The main plot has become more and more ludicrous. To spice it up we have lots more drugs, some straight sex, some gay sex, an unexpected lesbian kiss and gratuitous violence in the shape of paying a tramp to beat him up. Also the worse cold turkey sequence I've ever seen. After a really promising first episode I felt let down.

I will not be watching any more Mr Robot.
