The episode proved divisive on its discussion page
* AssPull: To some viewers, David [[MoralEventHorizon murdering Cliff's family]] in the end seemed uncharacteristically cruel of him considering the episode mostly depicted him as a realistically flawed man consumed by grief rather than a psychopath in the making, not to mention [[AmbiguouslyEvil how terrible of a human being he'd have to be deep down]] to do all of this despite being a family man himself. Those who share this opinion tend to agree the episode only ended [[DownerEnding the way it did]] because it's ''Black Mirror''.

But instead, [[AntiClimaxBoss the cult is arrested shortly after the murders]] and David is instead sent on a downward spiral concluding with him murdering Cliff's family.

** While Cliff isn’t a great person, Imagine being in his position. Your friend and coworker ended up losing his family and unable to even go back to Earth, so you give him a chance to go back to Earth, and he starts abusing that gratitude to try and hook up with your wife, and when you start to work on your relationship, your friends murders your family, and you are now stuck with your families killer, unable to kill him or do anything as vengeance.
** David himself. He was forced to witness a hippie cult butcher his family and was unable to attend their funeral because he was moored in space and unable to return home for four years. Not only that, but with his replica destroyed, the only way he could be temporarily relieved of boredom and loneliness is by using Cliff's replica... That said, none of this justifies his actions, particularly at the end of the episode.
