Giles ,'Selfless'
A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
she injures disproportionately to the amount of force exerted on the body
You know, I didn't think about this until Vortex pointed it out. She falls off a two? three? story rig, and all she gets is a dislocated shoulder and a few ribs poking out. But she gets rammed by a football (though I thought she got sacked by a player?) and it breaks her neck?

I had not realized what a tremendously geeky sentence I wrote. wow. But what I love the most is that no one blinked at it.
What was the name of the Kid? Santiago Tyler?
the name is actually "SANJOG, Iyer" on the file folder that Mohinder finds.
Damn, I was hoping he would turn out to be Jaye Tyler's long lost relative, given Bryan Fuller's involvement with HEROES.
Now I wonder if Jaye had a tattoo. It would expalin a LOT.
Also, I was a bit confused by Matt's retelling of his origin story. He seemed like he was agreeing with Radioactive Man's story that the powers didn't appear until after they were taken by MBG, but Matt already had his powers before he was taken, right?
I thought he said they got stronger after he was kidnapped.

You didn't cite any actual physics, so I think you're not even close to 11 on the geek-o-meter.
I think that they did. In the beginning, he could only hear the little girl. I think that if someone is "projecting" or thinking something very strongly, it affects him more, like in the grocery store.

For fear of entering No-Prize territory, I find myself wondering if there's a minimum amount of caution and prevention that normal people exert that Claire doesn't, since subconciously she knows she can't be hurt.

Yes he did, but maybe after MBG, he doesn't recall having them any more.
What I can't understand is why BGM would catch and release someone as dangerous as radioactive guy. He and the Hatian go in, amplify his powers without teaching him how to have any control over them and then toss him back out into the general public? That ain't right. I can see putting Matt back out there because his power is not going to fry anyone or give them cancer (though why couldn't it have been his wife that expired?). I guess BGM thought that he had no use for radioactive man, so he just cut him loose.
Also, I don't know who/what The Pusher is. What does he/she/it do? Push people to do things they wouldn't normally do with his/her/its mind?
But she gets rammed by a football (though I thought she got sacked by a player?) and it breaks her neck?
She got hit hard by a player, I don't remember if it's the same guy who later tried to rape her, but he did say she wasn't as dainty as she looked.

Yes. He's from The X-Files.
