With the help of her boyfriend, Jason, she then unlocks M's phone and discovers that he left her six voice memos, hinting at much larger mysteries surrounding his life and death, and starting with specific instructions to go to his bank and open a safe deposit box.

  • Episode One: RED/ROOT/396
    Mar 23 2023
    At the bank, Jen discovers that her brother left her the key to a car that she never knew he owned. He also left her some odd numbers that she discovers are GPS coordinates for an address in the town of Rockford, Illinois, a place she has never been - but where she and her brother were told that their mother (now deceased) was born. So she decides to take her brother's car and drive to the address. Along the way, she listens to the first of his six recordings, in which he goes into his obsession for certain "Solfeggio" frequencies and their corresponding chakras. Jen thinks this is another manifestation of his madness but she dives in, believing this may help her better understand him and why he took his life. After driving for a day and arriving at the address in Rockford, Jen finds an abandoned house that she believes may have been where her mother was born. She enters the house and finds a dead body. After calling the police, she speaks with a neighbor who knew the home's previous owner, a man named Frank who Jen believes may have in reality been her brother M. But when she continues listening to his voice memo, her brother reveals that he had a twin, Frank, that he never told her about.

Free was too much money.

Much like the main character I was duped into following this rancid trail of breadcrumbs to the end expecting there to be some kind of of greater meaning or punchline, but no. A few interesting concepts toyed with and then mashed together into a paste with lame conspiracy theories and a drug trip that reads like it was written by a 15 year old youth pastor to try and fill the gaping plot holes.

Couldn't finish the first episode

The story seemed incredibly promising and intriguing but I just couldn't get past the spit sloshing sounds from the main character.
