Reply #4: actually... [View All]

[incontrovertible]

I don't want to give spoilers to those who haven't seen all of the episodes, but the bottom line to know is that Reality isn't what the characters think it is, and it certainly isn't anything - ANYTHING - that the viewer could imagine. I don't consider the missing Memory to be a lie, or a distortion. That would presume a premise of Reality that probably would not apply.

I can say that the story "exists" on MANY different levels, from the drawing board, through the plot, the stage, the television, and the viewer's mind.

It's really and truly a masterpiece.
