#Cmdr. Wise ran a DNA test on Joshua. The test results match Rex Wise's DNA. Is this because Blue Sun hacked the biometric database on Rex Wise as part of Joshua's cover during the Borrowing? If so, why didn't they change the data back to the original once Joshua ran? Or did they restore the record only to have it destroyed with the Colchester op and the results Cmdr.

#Cmdr. Wise seemed pretty set on an agenda: prove Joshua was his son Rex Wise, who had been kidnapped, drugged, altered via brain surgery, and brainwashed into believing he was someone else. Why? Was it just a parent's paranoia? Or was there another reason? Did he believe his son held secret information that others were willing to do all those things in order to gain it? | #Cmdr.

Why go through such an elaborate battery of surgery, drugs, and psychologica/emotional manipulation to retrieve that information when there are other quicker and less physically invasive means by which to obtain it?

If he was involved in a secret operation that required him to pick up a shipload of Reavers on ''IAV Trafalgar'', what was the purpose of the Reavers and where was Rex Wise supposed to take them? The ''IAV Trafalgar'' was being decommissioned. It would have two towers of unused space--or possibly more--in which to contain them and conduct whatever studies or experiments the Reavers were destined for. That's assuming they would remain on ''IAV Trafalgar''. If they were supposed to go somewhere else, why have them leave the ship they were on at all? Why not refuel the ship and continue on to their ultimate destination? And once they got there, what was going to be done with them? Military experiments? Super soldiers? Population pacifism? What? |
− | #Because | + | #Because BLue Sun had Joshua Borrow Rex Wise, that must mean Blue Sun wanted to steal the shipment of Reavers out from under their owners. Why? Was it to cover up the fact that they had made the Reavers? Or did they have other plans for the Reavers? And since Joshua failed to deliver the Reavers to Blue Sun, did Blue Sun find more Reavers by other means? And what were those other plans? |

#The Mystery Woman who came to Joshua and asked him for help—she said that something would come up that would make it easier for him to leave. Did she engineer the fleet deployment? Common sense would insist that she merely knew when the fleet would deploy and recognized it as a chance for Joshua to get free—no maneuvering on her part necessary. Even so, how did she expect Joshua to escape? He was locked in his room and had no key. If he could not escape, it would only be a matter of time before the note she slipped him would be found and she would be discovered. | #The Mystery Woman who came to Joshua and asked him for help—she said that something would come up that would make it easier for him to leave.
