‘Pluribus’ Episode 4—‘Please, Carol,’ Explained

The post ‘Pluribus’ Episode 4-‘Please, Carol,’ Explained appeared com. Carol (Rhea Seehorn) and Zosia (Karolina Wydra) in episode 4 of Vince Gilligan’s ‘Pluribus’ AppleTV Episode 4 of Pluribus might be the most brutal moment for Carol (Rhea Seehorn) that we’ve seen yet, as she probes the knowledge of the hivemind, and hears an uncomfortable truth. What Happens In ‘Pluribus’ Episode 4? The episode begins by introducing Manousos (Carlos-Manuel Vesga), the immune man from Paraguay who has isolated himself away from the hivemind, the one who Carol yelled at over the phone in the previous episode. Manousos is deeply unsettled by Earth’s new overlords, maybe even more than Carol, to the point where he is locked inside his house listening to the radio and surviving on dog food, refusing to engage with them. It’s a miserable life, and when he answers the phone and hears Carol’s stuttering attempt to speak Spanish, he hangs up, assuming it’s the hivemind playing tricks. When Carol calls back and loses her temper, he’s struck by a realization-the hivemind can’t get mad. That was a real human. No doubt, Carol and Manousos are going to find a way to connect and bond over their shared hatred of the new world order, but for now, Carol is experimenting. In episode 3, Carol realized that the hivemind will give her literally anything she asks for-even a nuclear bomb, having handed her a hand grenade after misunderstanding her sarcasm. The grenade injured Zosia (Karolina Wydra), the body that has been assigned to chaperone Carol. Zosia was specifically chosen as an appealing figure for Carol, and despite knowing that Zosia has no real individuality, Carol can’t help but feel affection for her. Carol wants o know if the melding of all humans into a hivemind can be reversed, but Zosia grows uncomfortable and refuses to answer. Carol reckons that.
