As DarthLocke4 has described, MatsyaNyaya, which literally translates to "Law of Fishes" in Sanskrit, is more commonly considered in Indian history to be "Big fish eating little fish". Some might consider this to be what is happening in the West today with the big corporations eating everyone smaller (think bookstores, Apple, ...). Not a good time to be a small fish :)
Maybe the big bad of the series will take down Elias? Or of course Elias could be "co-opting" smaller baddies into his syndicate and tightening his grip on the city?
I guess by this episode Elias could be dead for all I know! XD
Very much looking forward to the upcoming Elias episodes and maybe some more myth arc about Finch and The Machine!
pronouncing it exactly how they have spelled it, that is exactly how we say it in Kannada... Don't know if that means anything for the episode though... Hollywood tends to have a lot of misconceptions while portraying anything Indian...
a more apt way to describe it would be law of the jungle...it's a concept where in a state of total lawlessness, the big fish will eat the little fish...
It's an interesting reference to say the least! -Especially considering we have pretty basic one word or small phrase basic English titles so far...
I also find it interesting (as a BR fan) because Alcatraz characters may secondarily relate to this...Elias is the Greek version of Biblical-Hebrew Elijah which is E. B. Tiller's first name, and also the Lucy Banerjee/Lucille Sengupta's last names also relate/stem from to Ancient Bangladesh...and Alcatraz also presents political dynamics.
NOTE: Name-calling, personal attacks, spamming, excessive self-promotion, condescending pomposity, general assiness, racism, sexism, any-other-ism, homophobia, acrophobia, and destructive (versus constructive) criticism will get you BANNED from the party.
Interesting title...
