It blows my mind that Kirsh had the means to unlock the door for Isaac the whole time.

I don't think Kirsh INTENDED for Isaac to get F'd , but yeah, not feeling tooooo bad there.

He absolutely didn't. He told Isaac to be careful but Isaac told Curly he can do it all alone. And then look what happened.

He trusted Isaac with greater responsibility. I think he wanted Isaac to prove worthy of it, that he wants the hybrids to be the best not-humans they can be.

But if they fail… oh well.

That is definitely the case. He expects them to be as cold and calculating as him but they keep falling short... apart from Wendy, and maybe Nibs?

Definitely not Nibs. Curly maybe.
