    And you are certainly correct that global warming and lack of adequate healthcare is going to kill that many or lower the quality of life anyway. But that's just too much a case of stopping the disease by killing everyone who has it. It's not like their plan was the only solution but just an instant one with horrible results immediately.
    Plus, wasn't the plan to conquer the rest of the country with the population they mindwiped? Can't see that being bloodless

    The dialogue between Brainwave and Icicle sounded more like their victims would defend the ISA's new regime when the US - inevitably - tried to counter-conquer it. However, yeah, I don't see the ISA as being able to resist grabbing more after securing the heartland.

    I think it's more that it doesn't look good on Beth. It looked good on the actor who played the original although we only caught glimpses.

    Man, that's the whole point. That's why I relate to Beth. Unlike the others she doesn't put on a costume and suddenly look like she's been working out all her life and the suit fits her like a glove. She's like your average fan cosplaying at a convention. Beth is awkward--she's never going to stand out in a crowd and that's what makes her so beautiful. She should never change--she's perfect just as she is.

    That's a good point. She looks cute in the costume and specifically because she's not some perfect physical condition athlete/ super model but more like a normal, average person wearing a superhero costume. She needs to be the person, both with and without the AI, who analyzes, tells the others what's going on, what the weaknesses are and then says, "You go fight them".

    Beth as she currently is doesn't need to be a costume hero to do what she does. Unless she can get the smoke bombs and hooty she doesn't need a costume.

    I'd rather we not get yet another character whose only role in the show is doing stuff from a chair.

    Although maybe Beth not being cut out for the field is when they bring Pieter Cross in.

    I don't want her to be in that role neither. She needs something to make herself useful on the field.

    Blue Valley isn't a place crawling with scum and villainy. It would be difficult to stay a superhero there.
