《Dark Matter Season 1》Episode 2 Synopsis

Episode 2

Jason is sitting quietly in a country pub. Ironically, the Animals' classic song "We Gotta Get Out of This Place" is playing, which coincides with Jason's current predicament.However, the bartender was clearly not impressed by the strange guest, and as things took a turn for the worse, Jason was eventually forced to leave the bar.

Confused, Jason headed to the emergency room, convinced that something was wrong with him.That morning, Jason, wearing a mask, parted ways with Daniela and began trying to adapt to a new kitchen and lifestyle.He turned around to get a cup of coffee to calm down, but it was clear that this Jason had his own troubles.

After some examination, Jason learned that his CT scan results were normal.However, there was some unknown substance in his body, which was a psychoactive compound.This finally solves the mystery of why he was injected in the first episode.

What confused Jason even more was that he discovered that there was no person named Daniela Dessen in this world.After some investigation, Jason discovered that Daniela had never been married, but was a high-profile artist who was having her own solo exhibition.In order not to be discovered by Amanda and others, Jason managed to obtain the address of the exhibition and sneaked out quietly disguised as a doctor.

At the same time, Layton and Amanda were looking for Jason, but he unexpectedly showed up at the gallery opening.Surprisingly, Daniela's artwork features Jason as a theme.When their eyes met in the crowd, Jason stepped forward and hugged Daniela without hesitation.She was surprised by this because she had never heard the name Charlie, or even Ryan appearing here.Apparently, Lane was behind Jason's creation of Speed, the company that played a key role in Jason's capture in the previous episode.

As night fell, after the gallery exhibition ended, Jason sat around with Ryan and Daniela and discussed the hypothetical differences in his life.At this time, Jason suddenly appeared in another time and space and started a profound conversation with her about choices.

“Our choices shape the world,” Jason said to Daniella, and it was clear that the choice he regretted most was not being with her.This reveal not only explains everything that happened to the other Jason, but ties the events together into a complete story.

Although Jason frankly shared his real-life experience and everything he encountered, Ryan thought it was just a ridiculous delusion and eventually left angrily.When Jason tried to prove to him that he had achieved great success in that world, Ryan angrily cursed him.

Early the next morning, Jason called Amanda's phone and told her that he was in poor condition and was preparing to go to a mental hospital for treatment.After telling her the address, he watched her leave... and then quietly sneaked into the house with Daniela.

Everything seems to be changing quietly, including the photo of the waterfall, which seems to have become the biggest breakthrough here.We even get to see two different versions of Jason react very differently when faced with the photo, which definitely adds more complexity to the story.

At the same time, in another time and space, Jason, wearing a mask, arrived late for his lecture and behaved completely differently than usual.He successfully attracted the children's attention and began his lesson.Even though he's getting used to this new way of life, the advice he gives Charlie about women is very different from the way Jason encouraged him at the beginning of the last chapter.

This radically different attitude is just one of many new quirks that Daniela and others are discovering.Amazingly, even if he misused his toothbrush that night, it didn't arouse anyone's suspicion.

Wearing a mask, Jason called Ryan the next morning and told him that he had crossed a line and would not accept the job.After hanging up the phone, Jason's destination turns out to be a mysterious storage facility that contains the mask he used against the other Jason, along with a bunch of other trinkets and tools.

As the story develops, our vision switches back and forth between two time and spaces.Our Jason begins to understand what Jason is doing while wearing the mask.It's him who created that mysterious box that can travel between realities, the one we saw at the beginning of the first episode.The masked Jason was so frustrated with his choices that he jumped into our Jason universe and essentially hijacked his life.

As night falls, Daniela sits down with our Jason to discuss their relationship—or, more accurately, a relationship in another world.The atmosphere becomes increasingly ambiguous when the topic touches on sex.It's like two strangers discovering each other, but unfortunately, the doorbell rings at the most critical moment.

When Jason opened the door, everything descended into chaos.Amanda's goons show up at the door and she walks in without hesitation, shooting Daniela and using a stun gun to knock Jason to the ground, knocking him into a coma.
