1 | * Caroline was injected with special powers and passed them onto Marrissa, meaning Marrissa was born with them. Yet, when evil Teen Fortress 2 makes a clone of Marrissa, Assirram ''doesn't'' have them? |
2 | ** Because the needle of special powers alters the bloodstream, not the DNA, and bloodstream is something that passes through generations. |
3 | *** That would hold if Marrissa gestated in Caroline's womb, but... she didn't. She was created via artificial insemination (and therefore was likely born to a surrogate mother), which means the only part of Caroline that she inherited was the DNA. |
4 | ** On the same topic: it is never once brought up that Chell, being Caroline's daughter as well, also has speshul powers. If anything, evidence suggests the contrary, as eating zombee taters made Chell into a zombie, despite one of Marrissa's powers being the prevention of such a thing. |
5 | * J and K go ''back'' in time to recruit Teen Fortress 2 in ''THE MARRISSA GAMES'', but they're already in "the past" and and they end up going point in time set ''after'' ''TEEN FORTRESS 2''. Its a pretty huge TimeyWimeyBall. |
6 | ** Not a question, but for explanation, I don't think J and K actually travelled in time when UsefulNotes/AbrahamLincoln told them to get Teen Fortress 2, since we know he was the president when they graduated from Portal High School. |
7 | *** But they were in the time streem and everything. |
8 | * How precisely did [[spoiler:the wave that brought all the good guys back to life]] work at the end of THE MARRISSA GAMES, despite Marissa ordinarily not being able to resurrect people, even with her Mary Sue powers? |
9 | ** Wheatly/Harry's Marty Stu powers, of course. |
10 | *** Wait a minute... one of the fundamental rules of ''Literature/HarryPotter'' magic is ''also'' that no one can truly resurrect people; only their imperfect shadows can exist. |
