Okay.

And I do want to say a kind word about the design.

We briefly talked about the mid-century modern nature of this cul-de-sac.

I love that.

I love the lusciousness of that.

There is a kind of a more of a nursing unit.

Kate alluded to the fact that Sam was an engineer.

And partly because of that, the show also has a real fondness for analog technology.

And I liked the fact that this combination of mid-century modern, it's like retro, but also has a certain amount of super modern technology.

There's sort of super modern surveillance technology that these people are subjected to.

I really liked that mix of retro and kind of super contemporary.

Because some of the TVs and stuff that Sam moves in look like they would belong in these mid-century modern homes.

And I really liked that.

I thought that was very clever.

And so that kind of echo of time...

I found more appealing than a straight-up period piece like Stranger Things is, right?

Than kind of the constant, like, remember this song?

Remember these clothes?

Remember this kind of backpack?

Like, this to me is a little richer in how that kind of out-of-time quality, which of course is relevant to the fact that these are people who, you know, were born in perhaps the 1950s or whatever.
