The key idea of Faith of our Fathers is left out of the plot summary edit
The key idea (or at least, one of them) in this story is that the shared hallucination of a coherent "Party leader" is misleading, and that when one stops taking drugs (or takes anti-hallucinogenics) each person will perceive the leader differently; to one is a monster, to the other a robot, etc. The anti-intuitive idea is that the "real" Leader is coherent, when that's the hallucination, and in "reality" the Leader looks different to each observer. Typical Philip Dick! Though I don't know if it's ok to write this spoiler in the plot summary? The andf (talk) 18:02, 22 September 2022 (UTC)
- I say we should add it. A plot summary should include how the plot ends. The IMDb can worry about spoilers.TheBaron0530 (talk) 21:54, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
