It isn't until that moment that he pushes her through the door and is looking at her and realizing he has no feelings for this person. And then Helly calls his name. And then it's like, "Oh my God, if we just stay here, maybe we can be together another ten minutes?" Who knows? I don't think they're thinking more than ten seconds into the future. But it was going into the unknown and never existing again, or going with Helly.

it's so sad that the innies think the outies have all this life and freedom that has been denied to them and meanwhile mark is a depressed alcoholic who lives only in dim lighting, helena cuts eggs in pieces so small the fork shouldn't be able to lift them to her mouth, dylan and gretchen's marriage is desintegrating, all irving has is black coffee and black paint and the black hole of vengeance that wants to swallow him whole... it's just so fucking sad they have the physical means to reach for and grasp all the happiness denied to the innies and they still can't. they're too damaged to. they've drawn a chalk circle of hell around themselves and they never step out of it. the innies' lust for life is the only thing that will help them break the cycle. we can't, we can't, i'm ready, we can't, i'm ready, i'm ready, i'm ready.
this completes the capitalism critique tbh. growing up you have no autonomy, and you yearn for the freedom capitalism promises you- with your own money, you can make your own life! and then you’re an adult, and you are a slave to the system until you die- too chained to responsibility, or too tired after working, or too damaged from normalized violence, to truly enjoy adult life. freedom is an illusion, a promise that will never be delivered
the characters are damaged by the system- it took marks wife, it wore down dylan, it isolated and traumatized irv, it constricted helena. until they could be shaped to be what the system wanted them to be
the innies are an expression of the human urge to love and create and explore and live that is denied to us over and over- until the system breaks us or we realize we’re never truly getting that opportunity. that they were always lying to us
