Am I the only one that was disappointed in the whole romantic/sex scene?

Not being horny-brained, but I wanted to see how the collective reacted to pleasure/stimulation. Did everyone in the auditorium just start getting their freak on? Was there an accident when someone else got overwhelmed at the intense sensation? The whole thing just went by in a snap then it was over.Carol confirmed neurodivergent. The giant antenna is going to be a central plot point. What happened to the Las Vegas creep?

During the massage scene Zosia explained that the individual feels sensation but the hive only gets information. A plurb that gets hurt will feel pain while the hive only learns of the event. This would explain why Zosia can drink and be drugged without the whole hive feeling it too. So when they have sex, only Zosia actually feels it. The whole world knows their business though.This doesn't explain why strong negative emotions hurt the whole hive though. I guess the show is treating psychic pain or negativity as separate from the physical, so it gets distributed among the plurbs.

Right, I obviously saw that part, but feeling the "sensation" from a massage is a LONG way off from an orgasm. The pain part is what I was trying to connect, but in the other direction obviously. Even if the whole world can't "feel" it, you'd think it would at least give everyone a smile, you know?It kind of made me wonder if the fact that they still bother with clothes at all is a show production issue rather than a rational decision of the hive mind.
Well I have to imagine they still feel sensations like cold and hot. They obviously feel discomfort as everyone going to sleep was taking their shoes off.
