What else would she prolong her life for? She already had love. She lived with her daughter for 39 years, and with her husband for 49. But she did achieve happiness at some point. We could argue whether Kelly had a happy life. natural disaster, the end of humanity, the end of Earth, or the bankruptcy of the company). Yeah, you can probably "live" much longer there, but eventually the TCKR system will get shut down, for a reason or the other (e.g. You can't escape it, not even in San Junipero. If you've had happiness in life, you should accept your death. Secondly, I agreed with Kelly (and Kelly's husband) about everything. Perhaps the consciousness is linked to something physical? A remain of the body? I don't know, but if they were merely copying it it would be strange to have little boxes/storages for every soul. That might also be why we see a machine inserting something in that big storage at the end. So my take is that, thanks to some futuristic technology, people can actually be uploaded and transferred, instead of copied, to San Junipero. It wouldn't make much sense for people to die in the actual world only to have a copy there, then. If their avatar in San Junipero were just a copy, it would be disconnected from the original individual. (I'd like to stress that this is only my interpretation!).įirst of all, I don't think their consciousness merely got copied. It looks like my interpretation of this episode is quite different from most ones I've read here. To me, that would be the perfect soundtrack for this episode! (I’m only 23, just an old soul lol) I haven’t seen any other posts about this comparison, but I just can’t see why not! Remember the “You too?” Scene with Yorkie and Wes?Kelly reminds me of the song “Little Red Corvette” if you know what it’s about then you’ll see what I mean.

In Purple Reign, Prince isn’t too concerned with Apollonia’s feeling and runs around town making her chase him and she feels crazy doing so. Well that may be far fetched and coincidental, but there’s more. There’s also an 80’s vibe to the club they are attending. Well last night while watching San Junipero with my husband he pointed something out to me that I’d never noticed before! When Kelly is introduced to us she is wearing a flashy all purple outfit with her hair high and swooped, just like Prince. So, I’m sure that someone here has seen Purple Reign starring the singer Prince.
