It’s no debate that the Lost Sister episode is easily the worst episode in the series, and it complicates the lore so much farther, so I’ve been trying to figure it out.
So the main thing that ppl say is “How is Kali alive if 001 killed everyone?” It’s likely that he just wiped out the telekinesis kids first and hadn’t gotten to the entire lab before El sent him to the upside down.
The rainbow room is what confuses me the most. First off, the room that we see in S4 isn’t the rainbow room. When we see the rainbow room in S2, it’s a smaller room with a rainbow painted on/near the entrance to the room, and is, again, NOT the S4 room. The most confusing part is when we see Kali and El as kids in the rainbow room. Why were they together? It seems clear that they separate the kids based on their abilities, so had they just not figured out what Kali and El’s powers were? And why was Kali in normal clothes and not a hospital gown? And her head wasn’t her head shaved?
And there was the entire line where Kali was like “one day I went to the rainbow room and you weren’t there” or something like that. When was that? When 001 killed all those kids or when El escaped? And she had her head shaved and abilities figured out by then, so what was the point of the rainbow room?! For Kali and El to socialize? It doesn’t make sense
Moving past that, why hasn’t Kali helped out at all since she was discovered? I get maybe her powers wouldn’t be the most useful in a fight against Vecna or the mind flayer but she definitely could help against the government.
There also has to be other escaped kids, so how has no one tried to find them.
Anyways idk if anyone read this far lol but that episode is genuinely confusing
