Worth the risk for a life of leisure?


Just finished this show and I've been wondering about something. If you do undergo the procedure, do you know for sure if you are going to be the outie, or is it 50/50. It's just not worth the risk. Being an innie is like being in hell surely and not worth the risk.

Hope they don't mess this up in season 2.

That's not how it works.

It's not that you BECOME something else - it's just that your memory becomes 'locationally restricted' - you are not able to remember certain things when you are in one location, you are not able to remember other things when you are in another. A silly premise, but that's the way it goes.

You are still BOTH 'innie' and 'outie', it's just that your access to your memories changes selectively.

Don't be so confused, it's an easy premise.
