The End result of Elliot and Angela's Relationship
I remembered when I first watched Mr.Robot, seeing how Angela died in the first episode of the final season. I remember it being so jarring, a mixed cocktail emotions of heartbreak, anger and dissatisfaction. Emphasis on heartbreak. Not only was Angela not able to seek redemption in the way she imagined it, but she died shortly after realizing everything with WhiteRose was a facade, and her and Elliot never got closure on a lot of things. Their last interaction was based on mistrust and misunderstandings. It pains me that they both viewed each other in this light for what was their last time together.
I remember thinking it wasn't fair, surely they DESERVED some kind of closure, right? But then it hit me. This was such a realistic portrayal of real life. Sometimes, we never get closure with others in our life. Whether with a friend, family or lover. Life has a fucked up way of abruptly taking people out of our life due to circumstances... never getting to say 'I'm sorry' or 'I love you' for the last time.
Angela was truly a tragic hero/character. If alternate realities do exist as WhiteRose strongly believed... I hope there is one where her and Elliot are reunited again. Happy together as they were once as children.
