OUTTAKES AND ADLIBS

(of his tuxedo after landing) Joshua: I wonder if I can get this thing dry cleaned? I got Mike all over it. Kiera: (teasing) Eww, I got Mike on me… Arden: Mike Cooties. Kiera: Hey wait. We can clone him now.

UNANSWERED QUESTIONS

1. How did Mike maintain control over the Reavers?
   1. Were they Intelligent Reavers like Mike? If so, how many of them are there? Just on that one ship? Or are there more on other ships still out there?
   2. If they weren't like Mike, were they from the original population of Reavers from Miranda? Or are they a subsequent generation?
2. The Reavers seemed remarkably calm, more gorilla-like in their behavior, while in the hangar bay.
   1. Is this normal Reaver behavior, evidence of some sort of control exerted upon them, or evidence that they have evolved to a more intelligent/coherent state?
3. During the battle, Joshua spies stents implanted in Mike's forearms.
   1. What are they for? Are they meant to introduce something into Mike's body? If so, what? If not, what are they meant to take away.
4. Mike mentioned he wants Arden to help him make more Reavers better.
   1. Does this mean he wants Arden to make the Reaver-making process better?
   2. Or make the Reavers themselves better?
   3. Does either process require the stents in Mike's arms?
   4. Are they to facilitate making a serum from Mike's blood, for instance?
