– The stuffed lion next to Rose's bed is because “The lion is a symbol of Christ and of course the Knights Templar.” – When Walter/Roman Armitage is seen out running at night it is because he is training. He believes that with his new body, he could beat Jesse Owens' time.
Peele uses the symbolism of Chris falling into the couch into what seems like an infinite space, called the Sunken Place, a metaphor for the history of slavery.
The film was made to show the audience what racially motivated anxiety of being a black person feels like . It shows what goes through the mind a black person in an interracial relationship meeting their significant other for the first time.

How did Rod know Rose was lying?
Rose finally answers Rod on Chris's phone, and, as a panicking Rod interrogates her to see if she knows where Chris is, Rose comes up with mediocre lies. Rod becomes suspicious of Rose's deceit, and mutes Rose, before plugging in a recording device to his phone.

Peele described the concept's relevance to the African American experience today in a series of tweets not long after the movie's February release: “We're all in the Sunken Place … the Sunken Place means we're marginalized.
In the hypnotism, Missy uses a silver spoon — a symbol of privilege — to imprison Chris in his own mind. This is a nod at the centuries of slavery where white people were able to use black people because of the privilege they were born into.
Chris catches back up to us very quickly. When he wants a cigarette and realizes that the thought of it makes him sick, he knows he was hypnotized. Dramatic irony here was used to heighten tension. The fact that Chris figures it out quickly, demonstrates that he's a smart guy.
When the flash goes off in Logan's face his demeanor changes. Physical symptoms manifest which include a nose bleed, fear in his eyes and lunging at Chris saying "Get out". Initially, this perception of this is interpreted as aggression, but later he learns that Logan was actually warning him.

When Alice turns, Sarah sees the extent of her sister's injuries: she's bruised and bleeding from the nose, eye, and head (mirroring the injuries we've seen Mia sporting). Panicking and horrified at what she's done, Sarah pushes Alice over the edge.
You could read it that the mysterious rabbit was Alice resurrected in bunny form, and the final moments are Alice punishing Sarah for what she did to her. As well as being the bunny, Alice's spirit also took over Mia every time she spoke of being Alice.
In their natural habitat, rabbits are energetic creatures and they'll keep themselves busy running, hopping and 'binkying', which is when they jump in the air when they're excited or happy. Pet rabbits need enough space to be able to do all of these things.
We see this idea pop up throughout the film as the tethered begin holding hands in Santa Cruz and eventually (what seems like) the entire country. For those of you who didn't grow up in the 1980s, Hands Across America was a charity event where people would hold hands… across America.
