Episode 18, Season 1- Plague

[datdude]

White is a jerk, Holiday goes the extra mile, and does it while looking cute trying to nap.

Also Knights a jerk this needs to be restated.

[perhapsormaybe]

At first when White Knight joined the fight I was rolling my eyes going "Okay, here we go, here comes his big humanizing moment where 'oh, he's not so bad!'"...nope. He's worse. I dislike him even more than previously after this episode.

He was just so awful to Doctor Holiday "Oh, you've been up hours on end and a virus is trying to force you to go to sleep? Don't care, do your work!" Yes, of course, it was urgent, but that he's so callous about it and so uncaring about her plight... jerk.

Like Mel, I was expecting a "oh so he really is an okay person" moment in this episode for White and instead we learn that he's a bigger jerk than before. He's horrible and I hate him, but that's okay. I'm glad that he's still the jerk he's always been. After all, not all people are good.

Also, I rather enjoyed the fact that Bobo was taking a nap at the time that everyone else was asleep from the virus. It fell nicely into his character and it made sense as to why he was asleep.

So, it seems everyone is in agreement that White's a jerk. ;D

But seriously, the guy has issues, I don't know how he's not a complete nut job if he has in fact be living in a sterile box for five years. And now I really want to know why he's the only person with no nanites. (And did anyone else like that part were Rex called him a freak? It's kinda a valid point)

I can honestly say I'm not too surprised that Rex saved him, I would have been more shocked if he hadn't.


Oh and I also wasn't shocked that Knight had a contingency plan for Rex--I loved how Rex just took it apart like it was next to nothing, bad news is I bet now Knight makes an even worse machine (but really, if Rex had managed to get a hand on it, don't you think he could have just made it fall apart?)

Im noticing a general trend in this show to be TV-pg-V thats a rating up one level from most but not all ben 10 ua ratings.

I wonder if thats why use story telling thats just a hair darker. I mean can anyone see Dwayne Mcduffie leaving in a scene where someone talks to Gwen the way Knight did to Holiday in this ep and get away with it?

[LizBeth1]

Noone should get away with talkkin to Holi the way White talked to her. I wanted to beat the manners into him myself.
I love the suit, seriously, love it. There is just one itty bitty thing. If White had the suit, why was he running Rex and Holi ragged, and just sitting behind his desk. He should have been out helping them. Just another instance of me wanting to slap some sense into his Nanite-Free head.

Because having everyone get along all the time is bad storytelling. White is a jerk but having him talk that way to the female lead is risky for a country where dull bland storytelling sells in droves and the rest of us need to work to find good entertainment.

Don't get me wrong White was morally and ethically wrong, but having him be wrong is better storytelling then say sponge bob or zevo 3 . . . .that people put money into make more of and not Danny Phantom . . . . im not bitter . . . .much. . .

[LizBeth1]

Danny phantom rocked. Truly, it did.

I hate white. i would just like to make this perfectly clear. He is a jerk in the purest sense of the word.

[perhapsormaybe]

Most people aren't exactly fans of White, but that's a good sign that the creators are doing their jobs correctly. If they meant everyone to like him, well...well, then, I'd be confused.

[LizBeth1]

*Sigh* Yeah, i can admit that this is true. I hate him, and i dont love to hate him like i love to hate Vanny. But if i loved everyone, i think the show might be a great deal more boring. lol

[Arty]

Yeah, we all pretty much hate White xD

I wonder if we'll see more weapons or ways to control Rex? Prov must have measures in place in the event of him rebelling.

[Phoenix Wings]

From some of White's wording in "The Day Everything Changed" I belive Six has standing orders to take Rex out if he becomes a problem...but that's just my theory.

[LizBeth1]

...i think that is Six tried to kill Rex... it could possibly break my heart. Honest, i would go gonzo. If white ever gives that order, i will personally invent the macine that allows me to go into the cartoon, just to beat white with a baseball bat. then, when they were trying to kill me, if Six acctually kills Rex, my last swing will be at him.

[Phoenix Wings]

Mind you, I'm not sure Six would follow those orders (he better not) but, it would make interesting episode fodder.
