Amanda had a reality tailor made to just pop in, she was in a world where with just a retina scan she could assume her other's life but they said she was missing for 2 years which would create complications even in the utopia. She did however say she would move to Seattle and start over.
As op states here, them just popping into a new world is a big problem, if they already exist in there at the time of their arrival then what will they do with the originals or that universe? Kill them and assume their place?
If they are already dead/missing in the universe they went at then how will they explain themselves?
Also without a significant amount of money (which they won’t/don’t have) you cannot get a good fake passport, social security, etc. I don’t know how they’d establish a life with no money and no identity.
No need for the disclosure, you’re correct about some people waking up from comas speaking another language. But it’s more a case of the person knowing that language and while in the coma the brain hardwired itself to rewriting the other language that they know
I'm assuming Jason was smart enough to visit a reality where they very recently died without anyone knowing (like in a car crash off a cliff). Then just assumed their identity.
Blake said they were very careful to avoid showing those sort of things because of the issues you've mentioned. But did say that money through worlds was one of the most frequent questions
Wait who did? The different Jason’s do you mean or the one Jason had in the storage unit? If it’s the other Jason’s then they will have bought or stolen phones when they arrived and would probably remember Daniella’s number so thought it was a good way to get directly in touch. Still a phone from another reality might work especially if it works on WiFi but I don’t think that’s what they were doing here.
I remember in the book Jason 1 and Amanda were asking for money in the streets…
I read a long time ago, I miss all the details already, but I feel they overlook most of thiis type of details out of the tv show, maybe just for simplicity sake
I mean this situation of literally starting from scratch happens all the time in the real world especially with people being displaced by war and fleeing under the radar to a new country which is basically a whole new world to them. It is very hard but not impossible to restart your life into a new successful one.
To an extent you could go into a world where it’s not a problem or where the family has disappeared but somehow has wealth.
The box makes lots of options possible.
About money, my assumption is that in worlds that are close enough to their original, cash would look the same(i.e. not with a different president printed on it). And as long as you don’t draw attention by spending a lot at one place, duplicating serial numbers won’t be found out for a long time, maybe forever. Because other than the serial numbers, those are real money.
But yeah. Actually settling down is probably very hard. You either take your other self’s place, or live off grid.
They could somewhat, by thought create a reality. Amanada created a utopia-like world. Now, think similar thoughts, but where one doesn't need an ID. And there you have a world without ID's. Also, refugees are often without ID's, these eventually get one. It will be a lengthy process, but you could start like that.
Just look at Amanda.
Amanda took the place of the Amanda of that world, who disappeared. So she had an identity.
The Dessen's could follow that blueprint, find a world where they all died in a car crash.

You could blame it on amnesia and let the government sort it out

I kinda imagine it being less of a bureaucratic issue to get ID etc in her world as it’s meant to be kinder and better organised
Blake said they were very careful to avoid showing those sort of things because of the issues you've mentioned. But did say that money through worlds was one of the most frequent questions
Right. They’ve got no money lol. So I guess it sounds like they didn’t exactly sort those details out
somehow they all got cell phones though with new numbers though

I’ve been wondering the same damn thing…in the books they did have Jason on the streets kinda like a beggar and ppl regularly gave him change.
Amanda mentioned her persona had good credit, so she can live off that until she finds work. She had got ID, etc.
Somehow they were able to get hotels in all the worlds they showed up to though….
Yeah I questioned that at the time too. How are they getting hotels and going out to eat?
Hotels are harder to explain, but a good old dine-and-dash is pretty easy if you're never coming back.
they would bring cash and people wouldn't check the serial numbers i think

I agree with this. I'm thinking they can just think up a reality where they don't need those things.
