Russian Doll Season 1 Episode 7 Recap

In the previous episode of Netflix’s Russian Doll, Alan remembered that he had killed himself. In Russian Doll season 1 episode 7, Nadia unlocked a key principal of the loops.

Fourth Dimension

Alan faced the reality of his first death. However, Nadia explained that she had seen him at the deli that night. She had thought about helping him but messed with some Wall Street guys instead. If Nadia had helped him, Alan wouldn’t have killed himself, and a cab wouldn’t have hit Nadia.

Because of this, Alan argued it had to do with morality. Nadia believed it was like a bug in code, where deaths were crashes. She explained it had to do with time and relativity. She showed him how a seemingly rotten orange was still ripe inside. Linear time still existed. They thought rewriting their first interaction could set things right.
