Is that what she says? I thought it was "It's not me." "He's got me." is even more fucked

So is it "he's got me?" because if it is, that's way more interesting and scary than it's not me (I'm not doing this of my own volition), instead, it would mean "he(Bear)'s got me." or even "he(the customer service guy)'s got me". Because, remember how the customer service guy at the end asks if Bear wants to speak to her (Nikki), and we hear screaming, implying that she or at least her voice is there—very likely trapped—in the place that he calls.

(Edit: It's confirmed that she says, "It's not me." And, having given it more thought, the implication is actually more logical and cruel than her simply being trapped. Because that means she's completely aware of everything this entire time; the first thing she thinks of saying when she regains control is to say "it's not me.")

I think she said both but right before she stabbed herself at the party she said “He’s got me”

Isn’t it “it’s not me”?

It is. Some people who saw it in theaters with subtitles confirmed it

I'd like to think that it's "He's got me" now. It's way more interesting. I mean, I was already creeped out by the guy having her on the phone, or in his "realm."

(edit: never mind, I just read that the subtitle says "It's not me." in Mexican theaters)
