Apple TV’s Dark Matter gives the audience more mind-bending details about the characters and their realities in episode 4. It all started when Jason Dessen (Joel Edgerton) was kidnapped from his original reality and placed in a different reality. As he tries to figure out what is happening with him and the other Jason keeps living in his reality, the show gets tenser since the last episode saw him and Amanda getting inside the box to avoid getting caught by Leighton. Episode 4 focuses on Jason and Amanda’s attempts to escape the box and return to a reality that they find hospitable.
What Happens in the Corridor in Ep 4?
Once inside the box, Jason and Amanda eventually land in a corridor that is the gateway to multiple realities. This corridor is called the liminal space, and Jason and Amanda keep trying to figure out how to use it to land in different realities. They, of course, cannot figure it out, and they come across several ways their lives could have been turned out had they made different decisions. These experiences traumatize them in some instances because, in certain cases, the realities are not inhabitable. Also, Jason figures out in this episode that the realities playing out in front of them might represent what is going on inside their mind during that time, which means that they have been in control all the time.
