9/10
A strong first episode for a comeback
17 June 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Contrary to what some others say, I personally really enjoy this first ep. I thought it was very imaginative, very intriguing, very funny too. The deepfake, AI, the signing terms and condition, the licensing face etc all very relevant and even more now in the current society.

The only down side i can think of is a slight lack of that Black Mirror-ness that we have from previous episode. I don't know what it is, maybe the weird high-tech eye implant or memory implant or something else. However, since this is the very ep coming back, I give it the benefit of the doubt and won't press on that.

Overall, a very good and thought-provoking episode.
