Constellation Episode 7 Recap / Review & Theories | EXPLAINED 

Love this show, but it makes my head hurt. 😂 The relationship btwn Jo and Alice is so heartbreaking and also heartwarming. I want Swedish speaking Alice and Jo to reunite! Alice even asked Alice if she could have her back…😢

there's nothing about either of the Alice's (or any character for that matter) that would make them "original" vs. "other". both are equally real and "original". the proper terms are blue and red alice (after the color of their car)

Yeah, this episode blew my mind again. I love how the two realities are bleeding into each other.

I loved this episode my mind was blown my heart was ripped out of my chest too. I was screaming at my monitor for Jo to go back to her original reality some how and just bring other alice and give her CPR there. I wanted so bad for there to be 2 magnuses and 2 alices and 1 Jo bumping into eachother T_T. I think next episode we're gonna learn about Irena and Irene's past and how they are both the Valya alive and as a ghost that haunts alice

Dan was sick this week. Will be back for the finale. How did you like this episode?

The Alice’s switched at the same moment Bud and Henry did. Blue Alice’s death triggered both switches. One second Red Alice is telling Jo in the mirror that she’s cold, sleepy and scared, then she’s standing there showing Jo the necklace. The Alice showing Jo the necklace is the body of Red Alice with Blue Alice’s consciousness. Watch the weird way she says “but I’m your Alice”.. I think she calls her momma because she realizes they switched and she wants Jo to want her. But when Jo tells her to go to her dad she walks away knowing that she’s letting Red Alice have her mamma back and is accepting that her “mommy” is dead. Jo resurrects Blue Alice’s body with Red Alice’s consciousness. Also, watch the hospital scene again, in her dream Alice acts scared of Valya, like she’s never seen her before. Blue Alice said she’s seen her many times, they’ve spoken and she even made a drawling of her. Valya also asked Alice if she wants to see her “Mamma” then says “come with me, and I’ll take you to your mamma” both times saying “mamma”, not mommy. When Alice wakes up, she doesn’t ask about mommy or mamma, she just says “where is she” and “we have to get her back”…

I watch several breakdown channels for different perspectives. First, most do refer to the Alices as Blue Alice & Red Alice. The same goes for Jo. What I learned from you is that it’s red Alice experiencing the Valya - inviting Alice to go with her to where her mother is. The cosmonaut’s desiccated appearance doesn’t invoke trust. I thought blue Alice was having a dream in her hospital bed because, when she awoke, her first question was “where is she?” Magnus told her Irena Lysenko took Jo to a place where she can be helped. Hopefully Irena/Irene want only a good outcome. Red & Blue Alices are “2 sides of the same coin”sharing the same inner messages. When I saw Jo injured in episode 6, I decided that she was actually in a coma, due to her breathing. Paul failed to accurately convey to ground command that he heard her breathing. He was afraid. Could it be that this entire series is comatose Jo’s dream, since her space mission was 2 years before the next one? Maybe she actually returned to earth with Paul, in a comatose state🤔 A far fetched idea I know, but possible. What is real?

About the namne Valya... Valya is the russian diminutive (nickname) for Valentina. There's a short scene in episode 3 in which Henry calls Irena "Valya" which makes no sense, as the diminutive for Irena is Ira. Valentina is also the first name of the real first soviet female astronaut, Valentina Tereshkova, who is an obvious model for Irena's character. How all of this is connected, I've no idea.

I think during the conversation that Jo had with Alice about the CAL, there was a jump that we didn’t realize. Jo jusr said how she didn’t know about the CAL or what it does, but then her next sentence, she knows. Very similar to how she doesn’t know how to play a piano, then all of a sudden she does.

at end of it all, all Jo's (1 thru 10+) will have to unite to save the day

Thanks for the commentary. I agree with, and like, everything you say.

I agree that Jo would be back in her reality by the end of the season. She will be the alone cosmonaut mentioned early in the season.

I think so many of us are taking such a deep dive into this show that we’re missing simple clues and details - The Valya is Jo. Let’s call them “Supernatural Jo.” Anyone else with me?

I really enjoy the show but I think it would get stale if we had another season playing in the same topics and circumstances. The other big question for me is the timeline. One time line is in 2021 and the other is on 2023....why are the timelines 2 years apart? I've only seen this addressed on one other video

Inside dream Alice, Henry/Bud are in another timeline in the other reality.

The cabin as the liminal space seems most likely, although Bud on the ship and Bud in his crap apartment don’t seem to be the same Bud and that bothers me. BTW not a space shuttle, this is Apollo so it’s Saturn 5 powered and they returned in a capsule. 1977 according to an earlier episode.

Alice, original Alice, other Alice, so confusing, why don't you just call them Blue and Red Alice like everyone else?

The cal does exist where paul is... They said in the debrief...they shut it down 12 years ago... however..the show sucks .. we wont get answers until season 3.. seems to be yhe new trend these days... A whole season of confusion...

This was one of the worst, most annoying, terribly written, directed, and edited hour of television I have ever seen. People didn't act like a human should. Example, woman's daughter runs off in a snowstorm. Mother literally sits on snow ground, for 10 secs, yelling after her. Not getting up and running after her. WTF? Also, house on fire.... woman walks slowly down a hallway, like nothing dangerous is happening. This kind of crap was happening the entire episode.... so idiotic. Then you have the tape recorder back and forth... which makes no sense, in any context. I have never stopped watching a show so close before the end until now.. Jesus it was terrible.
