Go back to the conversation between Dr. Mom and Boy Genius (as well as the earlier argument between Dr. Mom and Timothy Synthyphant (about the protocols). What does it mean to be a human? Just because Wendy has Marcy's memories ... does that make her Marcy? Does that make her human? What does it mean if you put an 11 year old child's memories in a synth... a synth that has artificial emotions that can be dialled up and down? In other words, it's not about faking the memories. It's about whether the "protocols" allow the hybrid to continue progressing in the same way ... in a human way. Is Wendy Marcy? Or is Wendy just a synth that happens to have Marcy's memories? What, if anything, is the difference?Something tells me that this will matter.I believe that they all have the same synth bodies (capabilities) AFAIK. I think it's an open question as to whether Wendy has enhanced mental capacities (the supercomputer) and the other Lost Boys do not, or if they simply have taken down Wendy's guard.Also, I don't think they have clarified how long they had Wendy (training, etc.) before they transferred the other Lost Boys. It appears that Medic was much younger when Wendy was terminal and taken. So I think it's been years since the transfer. I may be wrong on that. But if that's the case, they may have been working with Wendy for a while (at least a year, and maybe several) prior to the other Lost Boys, so it would make sense why she is so much more developed- see also, she's the big sister, is seen in her own room with all its features while the others are always hanging out together and playing, etc.</blockquote>
