Mixed Signals

Summary according to TitanTV (c/p from someone else)

Rex gets kidnapped by a mysterious stranger who possesses an uncanny knowledge of Rex' past, and fills him in on more secrets of where he comes from before including a shocking revelation that his brother Caesar has made a return.

~~~

My thoughts, c/p from my journal:

edit - We know that "Rex" is Latin for "king," and is most likely a code name given to him by the scientists who gave him the nanites (Rylander, actually, is the one who gave him the name). So it's likely that "Caesar" is also a code name. It's not Latin for anything, from what I can get through scanning the wiki, but it is the title for the emperor of Rome. So basically, his brother is named "emperor."

Man I love symbolism. XD

edit 2 - Van Kleiss knew Rex's parents, said they would be proud of him. So VK and Rex's parents were definitely scientists alongside Rylander who worked on the nanite project.

It's strange that Rylander is the one who came up with Rex's name (and maybe Caesar's) and not their parents.

This brings up the question about how their parents felt about using them as experiments - even though it's been said that Rex needed the experiments to save his life. Maybe they couldn't bring themselves to give them code names?

Man, as much as I love Holix being Rex's surrogate parents, I really want to know about his biological parents. XD

edit 2 addition - Maybe their parents let them have code names because seeing their kids' names in the reports is hard to take?

edit 3 Possibilities

1) Rex and Caesar are biological brothers with biological parents who worked on the nanite project.
2) The brothers are biological, but adopted by their parents.
3) Unrelated kids, but saw each other as brothers, adopted by the parents.

Hmmm.... Very interesting theories, the lot of you. I'm curious to see how it'll all pan out -- who knows? Maybe MoA is secretly on this website and reads these, picking through them for new and clever ideas that they themselves can't come up with. ;D

This also sounds like said brother is older then Rex...though still hoping for evil twin of awesome.

Yeah, I was thinking maybe one of the mystery siblings(either Holiday or Rex's) could be an identical twin?

Oh man, how awesome would that be?

Especially Rex? It could screw up all kinds of fun stuff. Evil or not.

Well, think of it this way: The longer it takes, the longer the ambiguous magic will last! Let's face it, current Gwevin isn't as good as it was BEFORE the kiss.

Oh gosh, that is totally and horribly true. They killed Gwevin.

But with Gwevin, the show WAS Gwevin, with a little bit of Ben.

Now, we have just enough cannon evidence to know that MoA intends them to be a pairing, but they COULD just be friends (though, that's saying something for Six).

What have we had so far that was OBVIOUS? That hand reach thing in the first ep. That "you look... nice" in Leader of the Pack. That holding hand thing in What Lies Beneath. The "I'm getting YOU off the ship" in Payback. That tackle we had in Robo Bobo. The fact that Six spoke to Holiday first in Promises, Promises. Um, in Lockdown, the whole thing about something bothering Holiday and Six protecting her sister. In Gravity where it was nice to hear his voice and Six just WALKS AWAY PFHDFJSDHS.

(It's bad when I can think up all that off the top of my head...) Anyway, am I missing something?

Honestly, I've been thinking about it lately, and all the evidence is leading them to only being really good friends, if not BEST friends, but THAT'S IT AND IT'S KILLING ME!!!!!! I can write FanFiction all I want and dig in their heads and over analyze the crap out of everything, but GAH.

Ok, wow, this turned into a rant real quick... ;>.>

Ah, my friend... MOA is famous for OBVIOUS hints. He doesn't do things without reason. That hand grab was there BECAUSE she likes Six. If it was just a friend thing, she would not have reached for his hand. Them holding hands in What Lies Beneath was basically a shoutout saying: "LOOK! THEY ARE GOING TO EVENTUALLY BE A COUPLE!" As for the tackle, if she was just a friend, she would have scolded him for being too close and called him an idiot. Instead, she got all embarrassed and said "You got...too close..." in a shy voice. MOA did that for a REASON! The reason: HOLIX! Don't lose faith, my friend! When the Holix Queen loses faith, so does the world!

YES! Absolutely in agreement!:-)

the number of days till this one airs is decreasing, has anyone seen a promo yet?

[Lina Trinch]

....

THANK YOU, SOLORA! I needed that! I was losing my way!! THANK YOU!!

And Sadie, I've seen promos, but they didn't include clips from anything I haven't already seen, so no. I wish they would do the promos for each ep again, that was awesome. (Though, that does cost a nice chunk of change every week)

EDIT: BUT I MUST POINT OUT!! (and I've ranted about this fact before) What have we seen that Holix from Six himself?

The holding hands thing is debunkable, because she could've grabbed his hand. So, what else do we got? The fact that he talked to her first in Promises, Promises? Well, 1- she's hot and 2- she had an answer to the entire Evo promblem. Anything else? KEEP IN MIND, HE SAID NOTHING IN GRAVITY. HE COULD'VE SAID SOMETHING. ANYTHING.

I used to believe that he wouldn't get close to people because he's scared of his past catching up and they get killed BUT, he's the last one in line of the numbers so no one's gonna come after him for that. Then again, we don't know what else his past has going on, but STILL. I mean, I know he's not a people person but GAH.

I guess there are little things. Leaning against her desk when he talks to her. Holding the back of her chair. Listening to her advise. But STILL. I want a BIG GREEN NEON sign coming off of Six and saying "HOLIX HERE".

[tessadragon]

hoa, what you said about Rex's parents, and how maybe his name is actually a code name, but why wouldn't they name him....
what if the accident Rex was in killed his parents at the same time? Maybe Rex survived but needed the nanites to survive, then Rylander gave him a new name, a new start?

I can't wait for this episode...whether or not it ends up like the Dark Passage, I don't mind, because it sounds fun enough that someone's gonna KIDNAP Rex! Whoooo! Who wouldn't like to put a bag over Rex's head and take him where no one will ever find him? *innocent*

I've thought about that first thing before. I mean, it makes sense.

As for kidnapping Rex... that's what Six did... XD The other numbers were just associates to the cause XDXD

[hoa]

Ah, about the parents thing:

That's actually a good point (haha, I read that wrong and thought you mean the nanite accident, pff.)

But then Rylander could have said that they died...

;-;

edit:

Now that I think about it... that's probably why he lost his memories. Rylander said "You lost your memories, haven't you? Not surprising considering what you've been through..."

[sadie]

he wasnt all smiles when the parent thing came up, his face fell from extatic to really depressed and he hesitated before saying "im not... who you want me to be" in a sad tone, he didnt say they were dead, he didnt say they were alive but the thought of rexes parents depressed the guy, maybe theres something about them that hes not happy about or doesnt want rex to know about, some random ideas that may or may not work with why rylander is depressed at the parent thought are

-Rylander is rexs dad (yeah youve heard this one before but bare with me), but due to what hes done he thinks it better if rex doesnt know, rex could have been born after he went MIA, the young son that went missing could be his brother and the woman could be his mother, who dissapeared with the boys to keep them safe only to be killed (or separated from them) later, it would explain alot if this turned out to be the case.

- rex could be a tube baby, and his parents donated the stuff needed to bring him into existence but nothing after that, rylander engineered the whole thing and named rex this option leaves rex with a possibility of having hundreds of "siblings" how many are biological or not is a different story.

-rexs parents were involved with the nanite project and were close to rylander (maybe uncle or close friend of the family) they disapeared before they could name him or maybe rylander just got naming privligas (maybe he delivered rex when his mum went into labor at an unexpected time)

- or (this ones the last one for the moment) him and his family were in an accident his parents died but rex and his baby brother were saved, but the nanite project was needed to keep him alive when the event happened his auto nanites protected himself and his brother against all danger until they were out of harms way. rylander his wife and his son secretly took the two now orphaned boys into their family not telling anyone they did to keep rex safe from people whod want to hurt him, rex had lost his memory due to the trauma of it all and with no known relatives and his brother being too young to tell what his original name was rylander gave him the new name rex. all were separated later on down the track.

theres heaps more but those are the ones that held up the most in my mind.

[Lina Trinch]

Those are all really good theories. I thought of a round about idea of these, but never in that much detail.

But there's one thing. For some reason, I keep thinking that Rex's brother is older than him. I don't know why, but it would be neat if he was younger or they were twins.

Oh God, what if MoA goes the identical twins route? o.O

[sadie]

i hope not, that has been done so, so, soooooooooo many times i think its like a tv requirement to have one case of random identical clone/ twin per show.

[wh1tetigerdemoness]

Personally, I think Rex was hit by a car when he was riding his bike.

There seem to be many allusions to him having a bi\tri-cycle at sometime.
