EPISODE 13 (CONCEPTUAL BLINDSPOT / WRONG WAY HOME)
---SPOILER AHEAD---
When Iggy was
infected with Cogito,
he asked the Collective permission to quit his job as Re-l’s autoreiv. He lost
his raison d’etre, which was given
by Romdeau. He intended to let her go. But the Collective did not permit him
and threatened to dispose him if he lost Re-l.
Vincent, Re-l
and Pino cannot go with the Rabbit due to heavy snow.
Re-l complains because they are held and Pino cannot do medical checkup or
anything she is told to do. Re-l does not comprehend how Cogito
works. She forgets she is not Romdeau
princess anymore where she can get all she needs in no time.
The speechless
autoreiv finds Iggy’s plane. He hit the plane’s
window and damages the engine. Iggy is forced to open the plane door. Iggy
gives the cave proxy body to the autoreiv since Iggy has no intention to go
back to Romdeau anyway. Iggy helps to bring the proxy body back to the cave. He
finds artificial wombs there. It confirms that the cave proxy once built the
ruin dome city. It is unknown what happened to the city or the proxy. He just went downhill from an intelligent civilization creator
into a lazy grumpy giant.
Iggy develops
hatred towards Vincent for stealing Re-l, his master. He means to kill Vincent
so that Re-l comes back to him. He utters such idea in front of another
infected autoreiv whose master has been killed by Re-l.
Re-l leaves
Vincent to check the Rabbit. Iggy calls Re-l. Re-l realizes that Iggy is
infected because he disobeys her order. Iggy admits that he was infected in a
long time and cheated the test. Iggy smacks Re-l, causes her to faint and holds
her to the UFO plane glass tube.
Iggy appoints
how selfish, whiny, incompetent, reckless and arrogant Re-l is. He points that
he who makes Re-l career shines. He plans to protect Re-l anyway (but in his
own way). Iggy does not listen to Re-l that if they go back to Romdeau, Iggy
will be destroyed.
Iggy leaves to
find Vincent. Iggy finds Vincent outside looking for woods. Iggy points Re-l’s
FP gun to Vincent. In proxy flashing speed, Vincent slaps the gun. The
speechless autoreiv enters the UFO when Iggy
leaves. The autoreiv breaks the glass. Re-l grabs the wrench she uses and runs
away. Re-l stumbles on the ground. Iggy shoots the autoreiv right when she is
about to stab Re-l.
Vincent comes holding Re-l’s FP gun. The speechless autoreiv jumps and grabs Re-l. She activates suicide bomb. Iggy snatches the autoreiv and runs away. Vincent protects Re-l from the bomb blast by hugging her. Only Iggy’s head is left from the blast.
The snow stops and the wind rises. Iggy’s head keeps muttering his love and hate towards Re-l. Re-l cries hearing Iggy and now she loses him. She shoots his head to end his pain. Pino puts flowers on Iggy’s and the speechless autoreiv’s graves. She understands death, but she copes it very well. Re-l thinks that Iggy could have been free after he is infected instead of following her around. Vincent gives Re-l’s FP gun back and invites her to go together. Re-l says sorry to Iggy.
The speechless autoreiv is probably infected from the beginning by hanging around the cave proxy. But she is still loyal to him. The proxy cares about the autoreiv. Their relationship is a parallelism of Vincent and Pino.
Cogito virus does not necessarily make autoreivs to be crazy and murderous. They lose their raison d’etre, an idea imposed by their maker to make them functional for the maker. They basically lose their reason to live. Pino can decide her own purpose. Some others are just confused to the accidental feelings they feel. Iggy decides to keep his raison d’etre: following and protecting Re-l. He becomes mad after Re-l’s rejection.
- Iggy is infected after Re-l is attacked by autoreivs. His conversation with the Collective must have happened after. The Regent knows Re-l survived the attack.
