Dec. 9th, 2007 01:07 pmFirst off, is it International Let's Try And Out-stupid Mohinder month or something? Jeez.
Secondly, the plot twist de jour seems to me to have a major blindingly obvious problem. You know the one, the whole 'let's inject Claire's magic blood into dead people and it will miraculously bring them back to life' thing that's been used twice over (though I'm not quite sure why they had to bother with Maya but still...).
I'm not sure how that's supposed to work when people are actually dead because the thing that would be circulating the magic blood isn't working any more, so how does the magic blood get to anywhere in the body that it needs to heal in the first place? In theory, I suppose if you stabbed someone in the heart with a needle and injected the magic blood straight into the heart then that could kick-start the circulatory system, but I don't get how the needle into the arm is supposed to result in anything other than a puddle of magic blood.
Theories, anyone? I know there's at least one medical person reading this, so any thoughts from them or is it just suspend-my-disbelief-from-a-crane time? ;)
In other news, not like you care, the cold is definitely settling in for the long haul. Need more aspirin. *sigh*
