Rajin & Similitude

[WarpGirl]

I'm sorry but that witch was hardly a victim. She liked attacking people, she might not have liked the Xindi, but she liked attacking people.

Hey, I didn't say it, Archer did! I think that the fact that he was somewhat smitten by her and in my thinking under her influence had something to do with it. Personally, I don't see her as a victim, but as some one who can play the victim very well. As Phlox indicated, it looked more an attack out of malice then to require information. My personal theory is that her species are bought as slaves by agencies of different species to become a spy. Maybe the Xindi weren't the only one who's assignment she took.

[Asso]

There must be something hidden, behind her. Yes. I think so.

[WarpGirl]

You know what got me really ticked off, the fact that Archer got more mad about being duped than the fact that at least four of his crew, including three senior officers, and one supposedly best friend were brutally assulted. He wanted Phlox to wake T'Pol up before she was treated! WHY? He had Rajin in custody. The Xindi weren't there yet. I just really hate that guy.

[Silverbullet]

Question remains, Why did Rajiin Attack t-Pol in the first place. Why didn't t-Pol offer any resistence except to block her mind from invasion. Rajiin pawed her a good deal before t-Pol
finally offered any physical resistance. How did Rajiin handle t-Pol so easily. Did she have super strength. don't recall that ever being brought up. why when Rajiin clocked Trip didn't he keel over out cold instead of hardly any reaction at all out of him.

Later, when Archer had her in custody she still should have had him under her spell. also if she had this strength why didn't she just knock Hell out of Archer and escape.

But WHY did she attack t-Pol. Made no sense at all.

[WarpGirl]

Because the Reptillians weren't going to stop at Earth. The Guardians, had them under their thumb, and wanted to conquer the entire quadrant.

[Silverbullet]

At that time in the story line conquering the quadrant had not been addressed much less attacking Vulcan.

Reptillians were concerned with Earth and Humanity because the Guardians told them that Earth and Humanity was a threat to the Xindi's continued existence and that Humans were
going to complletely wipe out the Xindi species.

Even if the Guardians had plans for vulcans later on they could have had spies get all of the vulcan bio information they wanted at a later time.

One thing at a time. the guardians had a plan and it meant step by step. Step one was Earth and Humanity. Take care of that first and then move on.

[WarpGirl]

It's called the "unseen" plot. Like Finding out T'Pol was hooked on TD in Damage. Really sometimes people are WAY too literal. You have to look at episodes as part of a whole. One episode does not a complete story make.

[Silverbullet]

Yes, Maam. Knuckling forehead, tugging forelock.

I will file that under less literalism.

Kidding, pls don't take offense.

[WarpGirl]

Not offended you're not the only one that does that. But I'm just a big picture person. A series is like a giant jigsaw if you focus on one piece you miss the entire puzzle.

[Silverbullet]

Yes, but in order to put the Jigsaw together you have to take it one piece at a time.
Often not knowing what the big pictue is until you have completed the Jigsaw.

Mysteries are like that. one piece at a time until the Jigsaw picture is complete and the villan has been caught.

[WarpGirl]

Not to me. I just don't think like that.

[Silverbullet]

How do YOU put a jigsaw together?

I usuallly have the box top to one side so I can see what the finished Jigsaw is going
to look like, turn over all of the pieces so they are face up and start to match [ieces that seem to go together. but it is still one piece at a time. NO short cuts. It wouldn't be any fun if I could just toss the pieces in the air and they landed all put together.

One reason I lke Mysteries is tryiing to work out the solution before the author reveals it. but the authors only reveal one piece of the puzzle at a time. also why I love Logic puzzles.

[WarpGirl]

There is only one moment where a puzzle is one piece at a time. The FIRST piece. Then it's other pieces connected to the pieces that come before. PS. I hate Jigsaws, too messy, unorganized, and chaotic, and they take too dang long.

[Silverbullet]

Warpgirl, okay. Do you like Logic Puzzles?

Do you read mysteries?

I love puzzles. Also love chess. Keeps mind agile.

Used to be a good blackjack Player and pretty fair poker layer, Draw and
5 card stud.

those days are long gone.

but I still do Logic puzzles, work chess Puzzles.
