as someone who has done pretty extensive work with human CSF and biomarker discovery……from the bottom of my heart, dr jerry anderson is a hack. like, for one thing, JERRY, spinal taps are a thing.
and another thing…NOT A SINGLE TEST BEFORE YOU KILL YOUR ONLY SAMPLE SOURCE????? WHAT???????? no blood tests, no scans, NOTHING.
like. that is so broadly, irredeemably stupid. i cannot even begin to convey how ludicrously unscientific and senseless that is.
they were going to kill the only potential source of a cure on the first pass because they decided to carve her brain like a thanksgiving turkey instead of doing literally anything slightly more measured or thought out. i am speechless at the absurdity.
ohhh the change from the game. that joel doesn’t find her. that joel doesn’t pull her off david whilst she’s still attacking him. that she’s actually allowed to fully release all her rage and her fear and rightfully brutalise this man who violated her and only after she escapes using her own wits and strength does joel find her….. THAT’S giving ellie agency baby!!!!
