[quote="Amberglitter"]Hi!! I think your site is pretty cool, and I've been a huge fan of Aeon Flux since the first time I saw her. I have all the tapes - and have seen every episode & short probably 100 times or more....I also have the book, and when you see all of it together it starts to actually make some sense. When I was reading the reviews I saw some stuff that maybe I can explain a little better -

- yeah its a bizarre one - the girl in red is stated in the book to be Aeon's former roommate. And seeing as how Aeon seems quite Bi at times I'm thinking more than just a roommate. Unfortunately, the girl gets a thing for Trevor and the odd occurances between her and Aeon is her double-crossing Aeon but trying not to let her know.

When Aeon smacks her gun up against the blond girl's - she's making sure that both guns are the same exact length - and this tells Aeon that the girl wasn't really trying to get the tag for the key - because Aeon already found that it could be reached with her gun as long as it is. So at that point - she knows the girl isn't trustworthy anymore.

This one actually has a sadder ending than it looks like at first. The very last seen is focused on a big puddle of oil on the hallway floor of that floating ship - right in front of the door. A fall from that door to the ground from slipping on the oil would probably be deadly - and you can hear the 2 breen lover's footsteps running towards that point in the hall - so as usual, the script is alluding to their imminent death.

- yep its a play fight because the boy who is laughing is also clapping- so the "hitting" sound is his clap not the fight. at the end they really are fighting though.
And i just realized the last time i watched this -
the whole time Aeon is bombing the plant she's trying to prevent what happened to Sybil at the end - that facility & the parts she's destroying are the same exact parts that cut off Sybil's legs at the end - and its ironic because Sybil basically told on Aeon for doing it.

[b]Last time for everything[/b]
- you mentioned that trevor made a bunch of Aeon copies that are in his bed - thats actually not true - if you look at the girl's their hair is all wrong and they aren't totally built or look like her - the actuality is they are Trevor's groupies - regular girls who he thought kinda looked like aeon and "dressed up" to look like her. The time frame between him getting the juice and making the first copy - who the next day is in his room isn't long enough for him to have made them all.

The other funny thing about that episode - Scafandra says at the beginning "its a shame about them shutting down D section - maybe a double agent?" seeing as how she's pretty clearly the double agent - and when they go to take the juice from Scafandra - thats all an act to get Aeon to follow her to the plant. But of course - Aeon wants Trevor to copy her.

And the last in my ramble....

[b]Aeon Flux (pilot)[/b]
The senator on the bed isn't dead yet - if he is he wasn't assasinated. it seems more like he's just a crappy leader and he's drunk or something. The woman in the room - she's also on the elevator with Trever getting her ear "probed" and later is with him & the baby - shes not an assasin, she's Trevor's girlfriend or wife and for some reason they are taking care of the senator. I honestly think its implied when trevor plays with the bug & stuff that he's causing this "plague" so that he can cure it - and become the new leader. This seems to occur before the book - but all the other episodes are after.

Actually in reference to the book - i saw at one point it said that Aeon blew up the Relica over breen territory - she actually didn't complete any of the jobs Trevor gave her - she made the evidence look that way to him so that he would think that the BRM was destroyed - while in truth she protected it. He actually says this at the end of the book - after he "inseminates" her with little machines and sees that she's got her own "little machine".

Hope this was helpful or at least entertaining :)
