11. Anonymous Videos
Some of Mr. Robot's craziest moments come in the form of the threatening videos that hacktivist group fsociety send to various corporations and companies across the course of the season. Clearly inspired by, and perhaps even a homage to, Anonymous' famous real life videos, these clips comprise a mysterious figure wearing a tuxedo, top hat, cane and moustachioed mask (while it's clearly supposed to be the Monopoly man, the face is elongated so that it evokes the trademark Anonymous Guy Fawkes mask) issuing mission statements regarding the aims of the group and making demands of its victims. The voices are, as you might expect, heavily distorted to further conceal the identity of the person behind the mask. At the conclusion of each clip, the group's symbol (again, a sketch of the mask in reference to Anonymous' logo) flashes up onscreen. It has become one of the show's most iconic images. These clips are truly surreal, lending the show an otherworldly edge, despite being based on the real world actions of an actual hacktivist group.
