History Recap / BlackMirrorShutUpAndDance

** The hackers announce that whoever wins the final fight to the death will get the robbery money as the prize,[[spoiler: not forgiveness.]]

* ExactWords: The hackers never said anything about letting anyone go by the time the fun and games were over; they just made it clear they were going to leak the information if the didn't comply.

*** At one point, Hector is incredulous that the only thing Kenny did wrong to get blackmailed was masturbating to porn, even quipping that "everyone does that". This hints early on that Kenny's freaking out for some entirely different reason -- the embarrassment and social fallout of a mere jerk-off video being leaked would be bad, but hardly anything to steal or kill over.
*** If Kenny was just a victim of blackmail for being recorded masturbating, it's more likely that he'd be pitied for what happened, and while the footage would be humiliating, the police would sympathise and even try to help him. However, Kenny was actually masturbating to pictures of children and even if Kenny wanted to report the hackers to the police, he'd be sentenced to prison for his crimes and [[ConvictedByPublicOpinion exposed to the public for his pedophilia]].

** This especially applies to Hector whose only crime was cheating on his wife, and he seems to legitimately love her and his children, only planning it as a one-night-stand. Had he just refused to go along with the blackmailers' demands and instead come clean to his family immediately rather than having them learn the truth from the hacker group, he may have been able to salvage his marriage. Instead, he ends up as accomplice for bank robbery and even if he manages to avoid those charges, he certainly is losing his family as his wife's reaction in the climax implies.

* FromBadToWorse: Kenny assumes that he'll only have to do one task for the blackmailers, as the other victims had to do. [[MovingTheGoalposts He goes from delivering a cake to robbing a bank, driving to the middle of nowhere, and then fighting a stranger to the death.]] The blackmailers then out him anyway and send him a trollface, and he's promptly arrested.

* TheGhost: The members of the hacker group are never seen, though there is a suspicious man whom the camera focuses in on at one point who could be one.

* ColorMotif: Yellow frequently appears in the episode in association with Kenny; he has a yellow phone screen, his home and the hotel have a yellow interior decoration, he wears yellow-tinted sunglasses while robbing a bank, not to mention the yellow puddle of urine. The color actually references Kenny's cowardice, as he did everything in the episode to save himself from being exposed as a pedophile.

*** The most subtle one comes from the color of Kenny's sunglasses, as yellow is the color of cowardice. While it would just be coincidental or [[KickTheDog seen as an insult from the hackers]] for making him do these things, the reveal that Kenny was selfishly trying to protect himself from being exposed as a pedophile makes the symbolism more accurate. For robbing a bank, pointing a gun at the bank teller (who could have been killed if the gun was real), and later killing a man, the hackers are ultimately calling Kenny [[DirtyCoward a coward for choosing to hurt people instead of turning himself in]].

* RuleOfSymbolism: While robbing a bank, Kenny wears a pair of yellow sunglasses and he pisses himself in fear. The color yellow is associated with cowardice, which at first appears to be nothing more than a coincidence or an insult from the hackers. In reality, Kenny was selfishly trying to save himself from being exposed as a pedophile and everything was done out of fear of punishment.
