The show is weird and laughabled. It’s about enslaving yourself, but you don’t have to remember it, advertised as separating work and home life. All the innies know how to speak and know the words to all objects and things in their awakening, but their personal memories are gone. That’s not how memories work.
If you had a split personality, and couldn’t remember what the other personality did, but you heard they were not happy and wanted to leave, you probably would want to know why and figure it, instead of forcing yourself to work in possibly shit conditions.
Some scenes only make me laugh, like when that dude was upset that his wife cheated on his outerself with his innerself.
Cold harbor is about creating a personality that never questions or thinks. The awakening in the very beginning is not like the awakening in the cold harbor room.
It’s a nicely presented show overall, but has nonsensical parts that pull me out.
Also, the pausing in between people talking ruins the flow of conversations, seemingly to drag out a scene.
That can indeed be how memories work (to a certain extent). There are many different types of memory loss. Retrograde amnesia, for example, will often involve retaining a lot of physical skills and lots of knowledge, but no real memories of the past.
The show is, of course, making up fake brain science, but the memory/skill aspect isn’t the magic part.
The hardest part to believe is that a technology could bypass the conditioned response from some of the traumas they inflict upon some innies, Gemma in particular.
Those get encoded in very deep and old parts of the brain, and can even impact the fascia of the body if it is sustained for long periods. An example of that is the armoring of a chronically stressed person that shows in posture and and limited range of motion.
