I would like if the episode would be focused on their relationship so we could jump back to the present after, otherwise it will be too rushed.

PROBABLY, since Fuaiz is so young people naturally have a hard time seeing him morally corrupt, his babyface also doesn't help 😭

I’ve noticed that many people tend to view Tonkla as an innocent victim, which is a valid interpretation, but I see it differently. In some ways, he might even be more troubling than Korn. After all, Tonkla is the one who’s actually taken a life with his own hands—something we haven’t seen from Korn.

Tonkla’s behavior is also quite dark; he treats Win as a mere object for comfort, not as a person. He’s far from innocent, and at 26, the age difference between him and Korn is minimal—just 2 or 3 years—so there’s no significant power dynamic based on age. Their relationship is complex and dark on both sides.

Moreover, Tonkla engages in drug use and other questionable activities behind Korn’s back, so it’s not as if Korn is leading him down a dark path. Tonkla is already there.

Given all this, I find it a tiny bit funny 😭 that people debate who’s better for Tonkla between Korn and Win, when perhaps the real issue is that Tonkla may not be good for either of them as well.

All three have some fucked up behaviors.

I think that Korn’s greed for the company has totally taken over his life. What started as a way to gain power so he could be with Tonkla has spiraled into an obsession. Over time, his desire for more power has completely overshadowed his original intentions, hence why he was ready to give up on tonkla at the end

Korn is an incredibly complex character; it’s often difficult to discern when he’s being genuine and when he’s putting on an act. His true intentions are so hard to tell but I like to believe he cares for his brother

My left asscheek is hoping your boob is right but please put jes as pete LMAO.

A season 2 would be nice but bible said everything will wrap in the 8 episodes so I do not think that is a plan they have yet

Probably how they met in the first timeline

I don't understand why that choice was made in the first place. The story is complex enough to be explored for a longer duration. I really don't get it 😭

While I'm eager to see their story unfold in the original timeline and learn how they first met, I hope they don't drag it out until the final episode. I'd really like us to get to the present sooner! 😭

Just a quick note: your theory is great, but it might be better to keep it under wraps for someone who hasn’t started the show yet. Even with a spoiler tag, the user will naturally open it because it's under their comment and they were only asking if the show is worth watching, not for detailed theories which are full of spoilers.

That's a good point 🤔 this show is wrecking my brains

It depends on your preference. It’s a dark mystery that requires you to really engage your mind if you want to fully understand it but it's definitely worth it if you are into that.

I'm also thinking that targeting the mom would cause the dad to suffer, which is likely what she wants—to make him experience the pain of losing his family, just like she did.

I thought about this too, it suggests balance is inevitable, no matter the choices made. It operates on the idea that every action has consequences that mirror the intent and weight of it. To me it’s like a cosmic scale balancing the outcomes of one timeline with another. The principle essentially asserts that no matter how we try to alter the course of events, the universe demands a sort of equilibrium, where gains in one area may lead to losses in another.

He either dies or his heart starts beating again and he wakes up

Oh god, I hadn't thought of that, but I really hope it doesn't turn out that way 😭. I do believe Korn loves Tonkla, but his need for validation from his father seems even stronger.

I've been analyzing the relationship between Korn and Great for a while now, and there's a lot to unpack. From the very first episode, it was clear that their bond was incredibly strong. At first, I thought Korn might just be putting on an act, pretending to be the caring brother, but by the time I reached episode five, it became evident that his love for Great is genuine. Korn acts as a protective barrier between Great and the darker aspects of their family life, and I don't think we fully appreciate the extent of his sacrifice to keep Great safe from all of this. When Korn tells Great, "You don't have to do it, just live comfortably," he's expressing his willingness to shoulder all the burdens and pain to ensure that Great can live a peaceful life, all while keeping his own hands clean from the family’s bloodshed.

Korn's role in the family is complex. He clearly craves his father's affection, and there's likely some jealousy towards Great due to the favoritism their parents show. However, despite these feelings, his love and protective instincts towards Great overpower any resentment.

Also the way they were raised seems to have been very different. Korn was clearly groomed to be the one who could get his hands dirty, allowing Great to remain untouched by the family's darker dealings. It’s apparent that their parents are prepared to sacrifice Korn, not just because they trust him more (which they undoubtedly do), but also because they want him to bear the weight of the family's sins.

Some viewers argue that Great betrayed his brother for selfish reasons, but I see it differently. Great is 21 now, and he's trying to correct the mistakes of the past. In the first timeline, I highly doubt that Great intentionally betrayed him. We see Tyme stealing from Great, something he wouldn't do if Great were still on his side, which suggests that he might have been forced into a difficult position. If Great does betray Korn in the second timeline, it's likely because something went wrong when he was aligned with Korn, or perhaps he's trying to make the morally right choice this time around, a choice he failed to make in the first timeline.

Their brotherly connection is deep and nuanced, and I hope it won't be completely shattered as the series progresses. There's a delicate balance between love, sacrifice, and the harsh realities of their family dynamics that makes their bond both beautiful and tragic.

He isn't in a coma but he's in cardiac arrest. His brain is surviving for four minutes after his heart has stopped, during which he relives his past life and tries to correct his mistakes.

I just noticed that the poster has Tyme and Great upside down, which subtly hints at a parallel second timeline, something that was right in front of us before episode 1 even aired. Now I'm really intrigued to see whether they'll incorporate a supernatural twist to merge the timelines or if they'll take a more scientific approach and suggest everything was just in Great's mind. I can't even decide which direction I'd prefer.

I understand now. I realized I was too heated when I made that comment about b****, which is why I didn’t reply to them. They just bring out some bad reactions in me, so I’ll admit that. But yeah, arguing with them is pretty useless, as you said.

I think the timing of your comment made it seem like you agreed with the fandom being crazy because of their opinions, and that’s why I misinterpreted it and chose to block you before. I’m glad that wasn’t the case because I really enjoy the comments you make about the show. Either way, you made some very good points about the sexualization of the actors and everything else, and I appreciate you taking the time to explain what I misread in your comment.
