In the next episode of the Golden Globe award-winning drama-thriller television series "Mr. Robot," Elliot (Rami Malek) is determined to erase all traces of his existence online to become a virtual ghost.
As revealed by the brief synopsis from Den of Geek, the troubled hacker will try to get ghosted in the upcoming installment titled "eps3.7_dont-delete-me.ko." The promo shows a seemingly frustrated Elliot avoiding any interaction with computers as he lays low, always seen wearing a black hoodie in public to steer clear of people who might be able to identify him.
Elliot is then seen with his sister Darlene (Carly Chaikin) whom he has not talked to in three weeks. She expresses her concern for Elliot and asks him about the attacks assuring him it was not his fault. He responds by saying "Even if it was him, it was me." They are apparently referring to Elliot's split identity, Mr. Robot (Christian Slater) who is partly responsible for the attacks which killed numerous people.
Elliot then proceeds to drill holes in all his hard disks and burns them in a microwave to burn and corrupt all the information inside the drives. He is obviously determined to disappear from the internet to become a virtual ghost, but the fact that E Corp is able to get away with the bombings still bothers him. "E Corp is going to be just fine because I wanted this," he tells Darlene.
In the previous episode, the Black Army staged the suicides of computer hackers Trenton (Sunita Mani) and Mobley (Azhar Khan) framing them as the masterminds of the bombings. After finding their dead bodies, the FBI ruled that it was them who orchestrated the attacks and closed the case because of overwhelming evidence.
"Mr. Robot" season 3 episode 8 will air on Wednesday, Nov. 29 at 11 p.m. EST on the USA Network.
