In an attempt to parse DontWorryDarling’s half-baked interior logic and sparse character motivations, roxana_hadadi has compiled a list of lingering questions

But in the finale, when Alice has made her way to the portal to the outside world, Shelley turns on Frank and stabs him with a butcher knife, telling him, “You stupid, stupid man. It’s my turn now.” Given what else Shelley does in the film, this moment feels almost like a villain reveal: as if Shelley, like Bunny, were actively involved in maintaining the simulation the whole time and intends to step into Frank’s power role now that it’s clear he can’t keep the compound safe. Nothing else happens with Shelley, though, so that line of dialogue and what “my turn” means for her remain infuriatingly vague.
That’s the entirety of my question. Would incels really be into Styles’s Jack flipping, twirling, and tap-dancing all across that stage? That seems incongruous.
