Did Squid Game Stock Diapers? Which Character Was Done Dirtiest? And More Lingering Final-Season Qs!
The following contains full spoilers for the third/final season of , now streaming on Netflix. (.) More from TVLine Leanne Morgan Netflix Sitcom From EP Chuck Lorre Will Drop All 16 Episodes This Month - Watch Trailer The Yes, Chef! Season 1 Winner Is... The Bear: Carmy, Sydney and Richie Bare Their Souls in an Intense Season Finale - But Is It a Series Finale? When it comes to Netflix's original Squid Game, it's all over but the (baby) crying. The Netflix megahit's third and final, six-episode season dropped on June 27, and with it came the bittersweet conclusion to Gi-hun aka Player 456's (Emmy winner Lee Jung-jae) mostly death-defying odyssey. Season 3 subjected the players who'd survived Season 2 to games of Hide & Seek and Jump Rope; featured the Korean thriller's first newborn competitor; saw both detective Jun-ho (Wi Ha-jun) and undercover guard No-eul (Park Gyu-young) succeed in their missions; and closed things out with an Academy Award winner's rousing cameo. Days after my binge, though, more than a dozen questions remain, as detailed below. Review my at-times tongue-in-cheek ruminating, and weigh in with your own burning Qs…. That hilt looks like the kind you see on a toy sword you get at an amusement park! Was it any surprise that one broke upon being lightly dropped? It was pretty cool when Gi-hun/Player 456 nearly chased cowardly Dae-ho/Player 388 into a center chasm hidden behind a door. But… that was the extent of the 'traps.' Seems like you coulda had a hungry alligator inside one of the anterooms, or something. What, did he only pack 12 hits inside the cross that he, Nam-gyu/Player 125 and Min-su/Player 124 all partook of? Or, were there two layers? Because that stash seemed to last forever. This one really bothered me, how Dae-ho/Player 388 re-appeared across the atrium, on a lower level, some seven seconds after Gi-hun spared his life. (It'd be one thing if the players were intimately familiar with the maze-like layout and stairwells, but…) It was absolutely devastating when Hyun-ju/Player 120 was accidentally-ish stabbed to death by a kill-y Myung-gi. But say what you will about the witchy shaman aka Seon-nyeo/Player 044, her getting offed by a PTSD-ing Min-su/Player 125 was pretty random, too. Or, in recruiting Ji-hun/Player 222 — assuming they knew she was (quite) pregnant — did they proactively prep a sleek, Squid Game-y bottle with warmer, plus a bassinet? Were there also diapers and/or a 'tracksuit' onesie we didn't see? After Jump Rope, the survivors returned to a dorm that had been stripped of its stacked beds/staircases, and winnowed down to just seven beds. That room got broken down, its contents moved to where, in just a little over 20 minutes…? Privately meeting after Jump Rope and the formal dinner, the Front Man offered Gi-hun a knife with which to kill the other players in their sleep, explaining that the final game could not be played with just two people (Gi-hun and the baby). Should that detail have been shared with everyone entering the Jump Rope round, or would it have made the game play strategy especially ruthless? Sure, it's inherently hard to get to, but Jun-ho was able to just sidle up to the interior dock and walk through an unlocked door to access the ladder going upstairs? When the Sky Squid Game playfield was first revealed to Gi-hun et al, did you suspect players would have to make a running leap to each of the next platforms? Of all the places on the final, circular platform that Gi-hun and Myung-gi could have toppled off, how great was it that an exposed piece of rebar was there for Gi-hun to grab onto? And that he spotted it/acted quickly enough to indeed grab onto it? Gi-hun sure was counting on the little lady not squirming out of her swaddling and wriggling a few inches away! If a language barrier and/or a desire for social satire/commentary was to blame for Squid Game Seasons 1 and 3 giving us the infamously cartoonish, painfully boorish VIPs, might those who back a Stateside edition be one half of a smidgen more nuanced? And will they be mostly foreign, if the Korean series largely cast its VIPs with Americans? And can we assume that In-ho supplied her with a clearly marked PIN code for the debit card, assuming she wouldn't think to enter 0456? And, um, where does one sign up to get slapped by Cate…? Those are lingering questions about Season 3.

Daydream launches as the world's first AI fashion shopping agent
The world's first AI-powered, chat-based shopping agent built exclusively for fashion was launched on Wednesday. Dubbed 'Daydream', the platform introduces a fashion-forward "chat to shop" experience that delivers personalized, conversational shopping that responds like a trusted personal shopper. Founded by e-commerce veteran Julie Bornstein, former CEO of The Yes and an alum of Nordstrom and Stitch Fix, Daydream combines advanced natural language understanding and multimodal AI, allowing users to search using everyday conversation, upload images, and receive tailored recommendations. Daydream launches with more than 200 retail and brand partners, representing over 8,000 global fashion brands and nearly 2 million products. Shoppers can discover pieces from high-end labels like Khaite, Markarian, and Casablanca; popular names like Nike, Alo Yoga, and Mejuri; and cult favourites such as Dôen, LoveShackFancy, and Cult Mia. The catalog spans both women's and men's fashion across a wide range of styles and price points. "Online shopping today is completely overwhelming and time consuming. Traditional search falls short in fashion because it doesn't understand the nuances of personal taste," said Bornstein. "By leveraging large language models and combining them with a deep understanding of the fashion space, we're building the online shopping platform of the future. Daydream lets people use real language to discover exactly what they're looking for across more than 2 million products from top fashion brands – and this is just the beginning. Our vision is for Daydream to become the smartest destination of fashion information, advice and products online. We've brought together an exceptional team using technology to help people shop in entirely new ways.' Daydream's founding team includes co-founder and chief brands officer Lisa Yamner Green, chief product officer Dan Cary, and chief strategy officer Richard Kim. Together, they bring experience from tech and fashion heavyweights like Google, Amazon, Pinterest, Meta, Farfetch, and Microsoft. The company raised $50 million in seed funding from top investors including Forerunner Ventures, Index Ventures, Google Ventures, and True Ventures. Model and entrepreneur Karlie Kloss is also among the company's backers.
