At 1:31 there was mention of mosquito larvae. @mosquito_chaser has paused it to look something up.
Mosquito details are important in this household.

Balloon Man looks like a dollar store version of Will Smith from Wild Wild West. Cass thinks he and Girl Sam will likely fuck. I think she's right.

Faster-than-light communication with IO is assumed. And faster-than-light travel, too if they're going to Andromeda (for no good reason bc the Milky Way is huge). *sigh*

Twist: Dad's dead, Sam's psycho, and now Balloon Man has decided to evacuate Psycho Sam to IO against her will. It's for her own good. (She is pouting about this, but she's been pouting her way through the entire movie so why stop now.)

Cassie doesn't think IO is real, which would solve the FTL communication, and make sense with her being psycho and all.

Update: I was right about the one bee. She's a virgin queen. Metaphor alert!

Psycho Sam is stopping to see an art exhibit with an hour to go before balloons away. In a better paced script I can imagine this moment being beautiful and weighted and tense, but as it is it is slooooooow.
