And also the fact that they were never two men in the game...might have something to say, with why they maybe wouldn't have worked in real life?. Wasn't one of them a woman in the game anyways? I feel like they definitely got their sexuality tested and got them confused. It might have been different if they actually played men, both of them..in the game.
Yep, Danny played the man, Karl was the women. I was actually expecting Danny to experiment with being the woman after he asked Karl what it was like, and he seemed really curious, but then they did nothing else with that. It really did feel like the episode just introduced the idea of two hetro (?) friends having virtual sex and trying to figure out if they were also attracted in real life, and then..... that was the entire plot. I can’t believe that they needed 1 hour and 1 minute to tell that story, whereas White Christmas managed to pack in sooo much more with just an extra ten minutes running time
White Christmas really was a great one, it’s one of my all-time favourites, alongside White Bear, Shut Up And Dance, and USS Callister, so I guess it’s mostly the really bleak episodes that make the biggest impression on me! I really loved how both White Bear and Shut Up And Dance turned the tables at the end, making you question if these protagonists that you had previously been rooting for really deserve that kind of punishment and suffering, if anyone does. White Christmas too really confronts you with that when it gives you the most extreme number of days possible for him to have to keep on living through again and again in his own version in Hell
