    Summary

    There will come a time when we see through a glass clearly.

    After a lengthy upgrade session, the robots take time off to relax.
    It'll be the last time for a while, after all. They wouldn't want to miss anything.

    Summary

    Thomas and Guy-Manuel wear helmets, which is to say they put on masks. For lots of different reasons: shyness, the desire for anonymity, the belief in artistic merit over the cult of personality, the potential of elevating performance.

    Thomas does it because he wants to be someone else. Guy-Manuel does it because he doesn’t want to be himself. They sound like the same thing, but they’re really not.

    Put another way: there’s a reason Thomas’s helmet has a face, and Guy-Manuel’s doesn’t.
