If this is a hologram I want to talk to the fucking programmer, I've got a few complaints and suggestions for improvement.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

So how did Sue get past the frying pan that is the horizon? That part seemed particularly hand-wavy i.e. it seemed as though we went from it could be interpreted like this to it is like this for the purposes of explanation.

I only watched to 25 minutes. He hadn't said anything about holograms yet and I got bored.
