**What about Odo and his kind? Reject from his species that has developed affinity to humanoids and a paranoid race of shapeshifters that hate everything? Or an individualist rebel that favours his own plots to rule the federation over a species that have achieved a truly transhumanist utopia through genetic engineering? I mean, really, say what you want but the dominion's members never killed each other until Odo killed one of them and the races that serve them are willing to do so.

Interestingly enough, the [[Film/TheATeam film]] portrays him as perfectly sane during the trial, and the next time we see him, it's in a mental institution. So he was deemed fit to stand trail, but is suddenly unfit during sentencing? Curious.

*** Or alternatively yet ''again'', he does feel emotions, but they're purely psychological and he has no way of realizing that he has them. Meaning, he is incapable of identifying a feeling he has as love, anger, sadness, etc., because he has no instinctive physiological reaction when he feels them, and he can't deduce that he can feel emotions either, because he always acts in a logical manner, even if the true motivations for his actions are not logical. Kind of like Spock trying to rationalize caring for Kirk as solely logical interest in the captain's safety, even though it's obvious that the real reason is that he ''likes'' Kirk. Except, of course, that Spock is actively trying to scrounge up a logical excuse for his actions because he doesn't want to admit that he feels emotions, whereas Data can't find any ''illogical'' excuse for his actions, being unable to recognize his emotions when he has them. So the emotion chip just allowed Data's body/sensory system to react to his emotions, it didn't actually give them to him.

When he lives on his own he completely turns around, other than mishandling his money (which had nothing to do with his good school performance) and given his nonchalant attitude about the subject with his parent, it seems to be their fault that they neglected to teach him anything about money management in the first place.

* Peter Wingfield played Methos, the world's oldest Immortal on the ''Highlander'' TV show. In an interview given shortly before the end of the series' run, he commented that it would make total sense if it were to be revealed that every single thing his character had ever done on the show had been a manipulation to get Duncan MacLeod into a position where he could kill him. Wingfield added that he didn't personally believe this to be the case, but noted that it would fit perfectly with [[MagnificentBastard what we know]] [[RetiredCompleteMonster of the character]], and that he'd have no problem playing such a scene if the writers decided to go that route. In a seperate interview, one of the staff writers claims that the character of Methos was not originally intended to be quite so dark, that Wingfield played the character as having his own agenda, and the writers decided to run with it.

And this brings us to Rory- how much does he actually like his relationship with the openly-flirty Amy?

** This one actually goes a long way towards explaining Mulder and Scully's tendency to switch believer-skeptic roles when confronted with cases that have a religious basis (unless we just assume that Mulder's skepticism towards Christianity is a combination of being AmbiguouslyJewish and having a DeadLittleSister). One omniscient creator god actually fits much better into Scully's objective reality than it does to Mulder's subjective, anything-weird-goes reality. IIRC, that unofficial fanguide came out long before Agent Doggett showed up, but you could view him as a Subjective Skeptic. Unlike Scully's objective, science-based skepticism, his skepticism is based largely on his personal view of the world combined with his desperate need to believe that [[spoiler: he did all he could to save his kidnapped son and calling in psychics wouldn't have helped save his boy's life./]] If Doggett's skepticism came across at times as more obnoxious and pig-headed than Scully's, that's because it had a deeper personal base. Unfortunately, the writers didn't take pains to establish Reyes as an objectivist believer, which might really have redeemed the character...
