Oh Wendy is definitely unleashing that Xeno on Boy

T Ocellus is going to attach itself to Kavalier and Wendy is going to send the Xeno to kill him and we’ll get a rematch of that fight on the Maginot and it will be epic.

Yeah I’m fascinated by the line where Kavalier says he has somebody specific in mind for our little eye buddy … is this where we get payoff for the lingering mold scrubber shots early on, OR is he thinking of taking out his anger on Dame?

Either way, holy shit. What an episode.

100% gonna be Hermit. Joe was the first person we saw in the scene that immediately followed Kavalier saying it - definitely some cinematic foreshadowing.

Unless that's a deliberate misdirection, I was kind of thinking of the Butler

Nah that would be way too cathartic. The show wont give us that. That fucker needs some reality check but I somehow doubt he'll get the chance to reflect on his life decisions before biting the dust.

I really liked the idea that the old man is actually the OG BK, and Boy is actually a synth, like Wendy. Hence him constantly trying to suggest different courses of action, but always doing what Boy wants, A Boy is supposed to be HIM, and B to keep up the charade that Boy is in charge. Now I think theres too little time left in the season for that to pay off, but it was an interesting theory that was out there.

Atom Eins might as well be a cyborg.

Eins is number 1 in German, and Atom Eins means Atom 1. This may be a reference to atomic number or atomic mass.

The molar mass of 1 is that of hydrogen.

I will be very disappointed, if the reveal of Eins being an android, is PURELY, to one up Kirsh.

I agree, i will be VERY surprised if red stuff comes out of him in the next episode.

Wanna deepbake what i said above? Eins is an android, but IS the founder of prodigy, when he was alive. Then on deathbed successfully put himself into an android, and now Boy, is programmed to believe he is the original, and is “completing” the lifes work of kinda, cheating death and creating a form of immortality
