[QUOTE]Originally posted by Daniel Butler: [QB] Well, I kind of like it when things like that happen. In real life, people don't die heroically just because they're named cast - there are no named cast. 99% of deaths are stupid, senseless, lonely affairs... I like verisimilitude in my escapist entertainment. It helps with the suspension of disbelief. (This was also my reaction to Carson's death...I loved that guy, but that's why it was so powerful when they wrote him off like that. But he sort of did die a hero's death, I guess.) I'm wondering why in the hell Nathan was lying in that hospital room burned up like that!! People with those kinds of burns over that much of the body can't be exposed to pathogens. They're kept in a surgically clean isolation ward. (Although AFIK they don't cocoon them in bandages anymore - gets in the way of debriding the skin.) Also, third (possibly fourth, in places, from the looks of it) degree burns hurt. A *lot.* Someone with burns over that much of their body (looked like 70-80%) would be kept in a chemically induced coma so they wouldn't have to feel the pain. I think the shrinks were quite right, Elle is a sociopath. But maybe it's not her fault; being locked up for 16 years because she's dangerous might mold a personality that believes it should be dangerous. Or maybe she just happened to be both destructive and psycho at the same time. Or, maybe it's more support for Hopeful's theory that the abilities seem to go with the personality - she has a destructive ability and a destructive personality. [/QB][/QUOTE]
