Show Notes
Jenny and Ted discuss Colony 15.3.
Episode Notes: As far as we can tell, Imp’s power can’t affect readers the same way it affects Taylor Sorry, Taylor, it’s favor time Lisa is reasonable but not fully believable She can fake a grin but not a frown Lisa had Taylor’s number though: she just wanted to be included in the atrocity Honestly maybe “defeat and kidnap Victor” was plan B to “Chosen ceasefire and Coil recruits Victor” until 15.2 made clear to Lisa that it wouldn’t go over well with Aisha and Taylor Lisa is a horrifying and villainous opponent A mortifying ordeal of being known for an eye What happens when somebody calls Taylor’s bluff? A brief remembrance of the Victoria-that-was Well, doesn’t Regent have to use his power, Taylor? Do we trust the Regent Taylor sees? Even after his interlude? Moral accommodations for Regent and “conscience accommodations” for Taylor This is a classic Animorphs argument Lisa is the best at debate and Regent is the worst The Undersiders’ rep is definitely going to be a narrative problem Victor couldn’t have acquired empathy and compassion with his power by now? Victor sucks, but also Othala sucks Who would even be making up rumors that Taylor is Jewish anyway???? Ted concedes Lisa’s Potemkin justifications The humor in this arc is great It’s fun to see someone mostly unaffected by Lisa’s bullshit… and for Lisa to win anyway Small observations and predictions
