#Oz Watches: ZeroZeroZero

[theosb0rnway]

All of my random thoughts after rewatching ZeroZeroZero Episode 7: Family

First off, episode 7 wins the award for both my favorite and least favorite episode in the whole season.

Now I only watch the parts of the show which feature the Lynwood family, so I'm definitely not aware of the entire plot of the show, just what happens with them in this episode.

I actually own a shirt very similar to Chris's yellow flannel and after watching the episode I had a GOOD long cry with that shirt.

Chris and Amina were the cutest together and they deserved WAY more screen time than the 4 or 5 minutes that they got. I counted how many seconds they were silent for in the car after both saying they were single and... 20 SECONDS. WOW.

I COULD SEE DIRECTLY THROUGH CHRIS'S MAN BUN IN THE DINNER SCENE. Straight through the bun. This is TOTALLY not the reason why I grew my hair out recently- Not at alllllll-

Chris dances like a weirdo and I love him for it. He dances like I do and I appreciate finally getting a scene where he looks happy.

I don't know why Emma in makeup and a dress slightly freaks me out, but it does. Also, when you pronounce Thanksgiving, the emphasis is on the GIVING, NOT the THANKS--

I love how Chris looks so handsome in his fancy shirt and vest and pants AND THEN HE WEARS SANDALS ON THE BOTTOM. WHY.

I love Amina's outfits and this girl deserved way better than what she got. I love Amina.

Chris going crazy in Amina's apartment just makes me annoyed because boy, you don't even live there, stop trashing everything!

I can hardly get through the last five minutes of this episode without sobbing and breaking down. I usually avoid the last five minutes just so I don't have to see Stefano's stupid fucking face killing my boy. As someone who has watched almost every Dane DeHaan film, show, and short film in existence, watching a Dane character die never gets easier, and Chris is a prime example of a Dane who did NOT deserve his fate.

The fact that he lied to Stefano's face, took him to an empty warehouse, and refused to give him any information shows just how brave he was in the end. If he had any fear of death, I don't know, but from the way he talked, he didn't seem like he did, especially with his disease creeping up on him slowly. Chris deserved better, but in the end, he was still a good man and a hero for protecting his sister and the legacy of the company.

Because I'm nice, I'll end off with my funniest thoughts of the episode: My opinion on Chris's outfits and style.

Chris's tie dye shorts are SO COOL and if I wasn't emo and sticking to a darker color scheme, I would totally try to find some knock off ones.

I also own an outfit extremely similar to the one he wears when he walks in the hotel room with Emma and Yasser.

This boy has great style, but his sandals hurt my eyes and he needs to find some other footwear. PLEASE.

As someone who has hair his length, but usually wears it as bangs, I demand to know how his hair looks so smooth and not full of gel and stays out of his face. I need his secret hair care routine, I really do-

Also, buns run in the family, Emma does a nice one in the first episode. That man bun owns my heart and I will never stop watching this episode just to see Chris's man bun. NEVER.

Alright, that's all of my huge thoughts on episode 7, I'll be diving into some clothing symbolism and other episode reviews in the future!

Highlights of my ZeroZeroZero Reactions

So over my break, I got to watch all 8 episodes of 000 quite a lot and it's definitely becoming my new obsession. I thought I could take a minute to go over my highlights that I can remember from watching every episode, including when I got drunk on New Year's Eve/Day and watched most of the series.

Disclaimer: I only watch the scenes that feature Chris Lynwood (because he's hot) or the Lynwood family, so my views of the show are valid, but incomplete.

Regular Watches

Episode 1: So I watched this with my mother once because she likes watching Dane with me and she HATED it. I however, loved it.

Edward gives me a very strange feeling and I felt very wary of him in this episode, I couldn't really pinpoint my opinions about him beyond that.

As someone who has gone to my local casino many times when I was younger and bet like... 5 dollars on horses, it's SUPER cool to see that in a show! I know exactly how Edward and Chris felt, but I usually made my own bets and never bet on the same horse as my parents unless it was the main favorite to win.

I love the use of Chris's hearing aid and his ability to lip read. SO cool.

CHRIS SMOKING WEED IN THE CHAIR WITH HIS BOXERS ON SHOWING OFF HIS LEGS HAD ME DEAD. I actually took SO many pictures of that moment-

Chris and Emma are the sweetest siblings and I know it's an opinion, but I think people who say they have no chemistry are DEAD wrong. I love Emma pranking Chris with his hearing aid, that moment is probably my favorite in the entire series and they deserved more happy moments together.

What Emma says to Edward in the car is exactly how I feel, and it starts the terrible chain of lies Emma gets involved with about Chris being with the shipment. This scene made me solidify my more negative feelings towards Edward. His death caught me completely off guard.

Episode 2:

The 5 seconds that they show ladybugs resting in flowers makes me laugh every time.

Y'all, Emma Lynwood gets VERY comfortable laying with corpses in this show. It's crazy. I love that they both lay there and talk though, it's a very bittersweet moment. Especially Chris putting on the watch, that always makes me tear up.

So does his funeral speech, I cry every time. That speech is so depressing but it really makes me think and tune in to my own emotions as well.

Stefano hitting Emma actually makes me scream. I hate that Italian bitch so much you all have no idea.

Emma turning the tables on him made me clap the first time I watched, I love that scene in Da Mimmo's.

I WANT MORE SCENES OF CHRIS GARDENING

Chris's music taste is... interesting, and his clothing taste is immaculate. I love his outfits.

Episode 3:

I only watched this once, a long time ago, so I'm going to skip this one for now.

Episode 4:

Chris looks so hot in that vest I'm DYING

It's interesting to me to see that angry side of Chris because 4 was actually the last episode I ever watched- it was fascinating to see how he was slowly losing control and how his disease kinda started making decisions for him.

The poolside scene makes me smile every time and I can now fully quote Emma quoting Edward-

But it also makes me cry because of Mother Lynwood and how relatable the experience the kids had was. Knowing it might be the last time you ever see a beloved relative.

....... I actually couldn't speak after Chris slapped Emma, I was angry for the entire day after that argument. I'm okay now, but still mildly angry at both of them, Emma for lying and Chris for slapping her.

Episode 5:

God this episode was LONG.

LIZARD, THERE WAS A LIZARD

Chris definitely uses his hearing aid to his advantage and I know he used to take it out all the time if he got tired of listening to Emma or Edward.

It's so sad hearing Chris talk about not wanting to have kids and it really made me think about how many people have to think the same things to themselves, not wanting their kids to suffer or see them suffer.

Poor Omar, man.

Episode 6: Barely any Lynwood scenes, so I'm skipping again.

Episode 7:

This episode is a fucking roller coaster.

I ship Chris and Amina SO HARD it's not even funny. They're so cute together and they need way more screen time.

Chris's man bun is see-through. That is all.

Emma's party/dinner outfit actually terrifies me for no reason.

I LOVE CHRIS AND AMINA DANCING THEY'RE SO CUTE AHHHHHHHHHHH

Reporter: "Oz, what are your thoughts on the last 10 minutes of Episode 7?"

Me: "..... NO COMMENT- *goes and cries myself to sleep with my Dane DeHaan pillow*

Episode 8:

DING DONG THE BITCH IS DEAD, THANK YOU DON MINU

DEAD STEFANO

But also, Emma Lynwood just not dropping her business facade. That's impressive.

Drunk Watch

Episode 1:

...... I called Edward a pussy-

I also called him a horse boy because there's so many horse things in his room.

I kept staring at Chris in boxers and bad jokes ensued.

I laughed extra hard at my favorite scene between Chris and Emma

I found some symbolism in Emma's outfits because of course I did.

I watched the last scene between Emma and Edward and I had completely forgot about it so it was just me going "Yes, Emma!" for 3 minutes-

Episode 4:

I watched Chris in his vest and ranted about how many freckles he has.

I had to watch Chris asking for weed because of course I did.

I pretended to be Edward when Emma was quoting him and I cried again during the poolside scene

That is all-

Episode 7:

This was my best one because I watched the most scenes from it.

I called Chris a stalker for watching Amina through the window-

I corrected Emma's pronunciation of "Thanksgiving"

THE EMPHASIS IS ON THE "GIVING"

Chris's man bun had all my attention that night

Emma still scares me, but drunk, she terrified me in her dress

"Oh my God IS THAT GUY NEXT TO HER ON THE COUCH STEFANO- oh, nevermind."

I danced in my livingroom as Chris and Amina danced and I had so much fun

I criticized Chris's choice of footwear AGAIN

My little sibling @collector-of-muses-and-others knows how much I hate Chris's sandals

"YOU'RE ON A DATE AND YOU FUCKING WEAR THOSE- OH MY GOD"

I took a 5 minute break to eat 2 spoonfuls of pomegranates because yeah I drank coffee and had pomegranates as a 1 am snack.

Then I watched Chris and Amina kiss and went to bed shortly after-

Oh and let us not forget

MY WIFI CUT OUT AT ONE POINT TOO so I had to fix it drunk.

Fun times!!
