USA's 'Mr. Robot' Ep 8 Spoilers: Twitter Reacts Christian Slater, Rami Malek's Elliot Twist!

The highly anticipated hacker drama, Mr. Robot, continues on USA Network. In last night's Episode 8, Twitter had so much to say as hacker Elliot (Rami Malek) made a shocking connection to anarchist Mr. Robot (Christian Slater), that Angela (Portia Doubleday) doesn't even know about.

In our previous recap, while Elliot confessed to his therapist (Gloria Rueben) that he needs to hack to escape loneliness, Evil Corp's SVP of Technology Tyrell Wellick continued his plan to climb up the corporate ladder. After being passed up for promotion, Tyrell and his wife sought revenge against the man who took the high status from him. While Tyrell seduced his way and had an affair with the executive's wife, he ended up strangling her to death. Angela discovered her attempts to hit Evil Corp will also hurt everyone at AllSafe.

In our recent recap, after discovering Angela was in trouble, Elliot had to hack into his Gideon's email and remove the honeypot for the Dark Army. Realizing the revolution is happening, Elliot kissed Darlene, which freaked her out. After hacking himself, discovering photos in a CD, Elliot discovered Darlene is his sister and Mr. Robot is his father.

In an interview with Vanity Fair, Malek revealed his acting process with his psychiatrist, "I never wanted to let her down. She talked to me so often about shows that really take a few too many liberties in their depiction of illness-mental illness-and their depictions of psychologists and psychiatrists as well. I really made an effort, as did [show-runner] Sam [Esmail] and the writers, to just try to tell that relationship as authentically as possible. Or as appropriately. And that's the standard we set for the entire show."

Check out what Twitter had to say about Elliot's shocking revelation:
