The story is actually about how there are nowhere near enough survivors or embryos to have a genetically viable human colony so we just get to watch the end of the human race while Mother tries to figure out where she went wrong I don't understand why they didn't call the androids Banshees with their power set. Mother better raise some undead minions at some point.

Gaj posted:I agree that a show of just the 2 androids and like 6 kids alone trying to rebuild Humanity would be engrossing without the whole outside antagonists. And yeah you would think that if you took months to get 1 killer robot reprogrammed to be a mother figure then you could surely get more than 12 embryos ready. Like ok start with 6 as a starter run and then spin up the other 200 for incubation. Even then they could still run with 199 children died. There were more in the ship, they were only able to pull out like two cases before it went over the edge, but either way there were only like 12 boxes on the wall and not a lot of extra ship to hold more. I wish they hadn't mentioned it was Kepler-22b, or at least just made up a system, because that raises a lot of questions about the tech in the show as well as making it a little unbelievable that this is the only semi-habitable planet found. Kepler is like 630 lightyears out, getting there in 12 years, even a relativistic 12 years, means they got some serious engine tech. Boldly go, people!

Mokotow posted:Interesting! Kepler is 638 ly from earth, and the y mention they needed to stay under for 13 years I think, which would mean they traveled at a factor of... 49 times the speed of light? We also don't know if Newtonian physics apply for their travel. If they were able to maintain a constant 1g acceleration (and deceleration for the back half) they'd only need to reach like .99999c to get it done in 13 years relativistic But if that were the case and there are really wormholes for the little ships, Mother would have had centuries to ponder her mistakes by the time the ark arrived

upgunned shitpost posted:the mithraics wear combat pith helmets too Yeah, I knew what you were referring to. I love that "To be discontinued..." at the end of the episode. When you said piths the first thing I thought of was Dark Helmet tho

Open Source Idiom posted:There were more, but they could only remove twelve from the craft before it fell beyond their reach. I just went and rewatched the opening, there were only 7 metal cases on the wall and no room for there to be more hiding away, so best case there were 42 babies

I mostly stopped watching because 4 episodes in I still hadn't figured out what the show was supposed to be about. "10 hours of padding" makes me think that wasn't' actually answered at any point.
