EPISODE 14: "Rewatch Revelations Four - Please, Carol"

Welcome back to E Pluribus Unum, the podcast where we deep dive into the hive mind. Someone said please. Eight billion people, in fact. And the way they said it will haunt you differently the second time around.

This is Rewatch Revelations Four, where we revisit Episode 4: "Please, Carol" with post-finale eyes. We finally meet Manos in the flesh, and his cold open is hiding more than you think -- from a fictional dog food brand with real border-crossing origins to storage unit numbers that keep our prime number theory alive.

We break down: A Shakespeare reference that reframes Carol's entire relationship with her own writing, a conversion therapy backstory that explains everything about her resistance, and six things Carol said on camera that she will never admit sober. Plus: The insect theory expands in ways we didn't expect, the color vocabulary gets complicated, and we ask whether the joined are crying because they're sad -- or because they're performing.

Larry might deserve an Emmy. Carol might deserve a hug. And the title earns every syllable of its weight.

New episodes drop weekly during hiatus.
