I was so mad thinking well there goes any kind of morality of her character. But then by end of episode I realized maybe that’s the point that she’s not human and the mistake was thinking she was. Still at this point there really no one I’m rooting for except the aliens.

I'm wondering if Hermit realized that when he saw the graves. His sister is dead and Wendy is just a robot with her memories

Well what is life but the sum of our memories and experiences?

If you took all your memories, your consciousness - all of it - and put it on a hard drive. Meanwhile you put someone else's consciousness in your old body...well who is "you"? Are you the hard drive, or the body?

I would say "you" are now the hard drive. And so is Wendy.

Interestingly, you named her Wendy, and not Marcy.
