If the sequel happens in a timeline where Stefan got arrested what if we get a scene of Colin visiting him in prison

Right, I have read literally nothing about the upcoming series so based on this plus the other trailer here's what I think each episode's about
COMMON PEOPLE Chris O'Dowd and Rashida Jones play a couple. Rashida's character is a teacher who has some kind of life threatening medical situation eg brain haemorrhage. In order to pay for the expensive treatment she needs, she agrees to some kind of commercial sponsorship for her medical procedure. This results in her spouting ad slogans involuntarily. The adverts take over her life more and more, until her personality is completely rewritten. Chris O'Dowd's character watches the woman he loves slip away from him completely. Also Lisa Gilroy is there!!!
BÊTE NOIRE Main character works some kind of creative/tech-y office job. One day a mysterious Blonde Lady arrives saying "Do you remember me?" and claiming to be an old schoolmate. Of course MC remembers Blonde Lady! Except. Turns out Blonde Lady has some kind of memory-altering/reality-rewriting powers. MC's life starts to slowly unravel as Blonde Lady takes over - a sort of high tech Single White Female? I'm sorry I didn't recognise the actors in this apart from Doc Brown...
EULOGY Paul Giamatti is a recently bereaved widower who uses Black Mirror cookie technology to revisit the memories of his dead wife. Something goes wrong, obviously. Somehow the memories don't quite match up with what Paul Giamatti is expecting? Key lines from this ep are "She's in there but I can't see her" and "We're getting quite a following" but I can't quite pull it all together. (I'm getting Playtest vibes, though?)
HOTEL REVERIE Awkwafina creates some advanced VR/AI tech where you can experience being the star of your own improvised movie (I'm put in mind of the TNG holodeck). Issa Rae tries it out and enters some film noir worlds where she meets AI Emma Corrin. Issa and Emma fall for each other and the ep grapples with questions like: What is the nature of consciousness and sapience? Can an AI ever truly be "alive"? Will Black Mirror give us another lesbian love story with a(n arguably) happy ending?
PLAYTHING Colin Ritter lives on in what is either a sequel to your canonical Bandersnatch playthrough, or a sideways slip to a reality where he didn't jump off a balcony. Is Stefan Butler still in prison? Will he mentioned at all? Don't worry about that, Colin has a NEW socially awkward young programmer to mentor. New Programmer creates a game full of fuzzy yellow creatures (I'm sure their name has been mentioned but I've forgotten it already). Peter Capaldi is also there as some kind of transhumanist zealot? Peter Capaldi and New Programmer start communicating with the fuzzy yellow things and enact their sinister will, which probably involves killing and chopping up a bunch of people. And there's telekinesis. And Asim Chaudry is back too!
USS CALLISTER: INTO INFINITY USS Callister sequel! Cristin Milioti leads her crew of replicated co-workers in the sprawling galaxy of the Infinity public servers. Whizzy space stuff happens, it's all very Star Trek (2009), and then in the Real World Cristin Milioti tells Jimmi Simpson about Jesse Plemons' cloning and also for some reason the USS Callister is targeted by the game's millions of RL players? Can't be bothered to think too deeply about this one tbh, just gonna see what happens.
New Black Mirror to briefly fill the void left by Stage/Fright...
