I also think her knowledge her life was temporary due to the memories allowed her to go with the flow the guarantee of death regardless of her decision meant she could make whatever decision she wanted and the decisions Constance made were all to get answers. One moment Con was all business and another she didn't care. We never saw the Con that regained her sense of self through pushing onward and realising that she can both grieve one individual and love another the clone wasn't that person and to me I valued her wishy-washyness that caused such a tumultuous plot.

They can't get enough of the death-defying stunts he has parlayed into a social media spectacle.īut after Chance's latest "refresh," he awakens to accusations that he's killed Lee Conway, a stranger Chance has never met. Chance was revived-and his grieving parents met his existence with anger, neglect, and aversion.
