    I think Mark was trying to protect everyone and his heart is truly good. Steven was created to protect himself in times on emotional distress. Jake came about on Mark’s excursions as a mercenary because he truly didn’t have the heart to kill anyone until Konshu arrive, making Jake the one with all the blood on his hands
    This is why the scales balanced for Mark. He’s the one true identity. His alters were all a means to an end because of the situations he got placed in.

    • @sad_doggo2504
      @sad_doggo2504 2 роки тому +1

      Which do you consider to be the real you, your conscious, or subconscious mind? Alters aren't formed out of an external material and then amputated. They come from an individual's own (formerly unified) thoughts, feelings and experiences. Marc couldn't possibly be the 'true identity' because that would seem to imply that he, on his own, is still whole and unfractured while it's those OTHER alters that are damaged and in need of fixing.
      But... how can they split off from the whole without leaving that whole fractured and in need of repair? This makes no sense.

      I saw that too in the beginning after Marc and Steven scream. The man that’s speaking to “Dr. Harrow” is speaking with a NY based accent and he has a scar on the bridge of his nose. Whereas, Steven and Marc don’t have that same scar. Also, at the end of episode 2 when Marc/Steven show up in Egypt in that motel room, he’s drinking wine and in the reflection it appears to be Steven but I think it’s actually both and Jake is in control for Konshu since he’s the more ruthless killer. Also the scene of Marc, Steven drinking from the flask might be Jake as well.

    I believe he’s snarling because of Harrow’s method of transportation; a bus. Not a taxi cab. 🚕 His face is also banged up like he’s been brawling. Taking hits and dealing them without the healing factor of Khonshu’s powers. Just an everyday man who disapproves of bus rides to work. Also speaking with a slight New York accent…

    The initial reaction that Jake killed their mother is a good example of the harm done by the film industry overutilizing the violent/evil alter trope. There IS overall a lot of positive representation of DID in this series (and I freaking love it for that), but people still have it ingrained in their minds that someone with this disorder HAS to have a 'Beast' or 'Gollum' or 'Jake' somewhere in the recesses of their mind, just waiting to be let out and wreak havoc.

    You both mentioned stand ins and how good the visuals are for the show and particularly this episode. Oscar has commented in a few interviews that his brother helped film some of these scenes. Im sure there were a combination of tools used to visually tell this story of duality. But I guess his brother has a similar physique that they could leverage to film some of this as well.
    And as for Jake showing up. I think he’s around. The cab in the background of the scene with Marc and Steven outside the house at his mothers shiva. And in Harrow’s office…when “Marc” appeared with the broken, bloody nose. I think that was Jake. And I think the person who grabbed that glass pyramid was Jake too. jmo.
