This portrayal of Gnosias was not what I expected. I thought they would become ruthless and calculating psychopaths but they basically just retained their personalities and (non-)intellect (which is what we’re told but I thought it would be more of a “on the surface” thing). It didn’t convince me that it is sufficient to turn people into murderers. I also wonder if “Gnosia would not betray another Gnosia for no gain” would be wrong in future loops because it’ll make deduction impossible.
Yuri’s room door also worked during warp, which I feel contradicts with sensors not working.
At least it answered what happens if somebody locked themselves in a room: Gnosias can erase victim from a distance. Not sure if visual contact is needed but I’m willing to believe it isn’t.
I’m disappointed to not seeing LeVi blowing up the ship at the end.
We’ve already seen that Gnosia can voluntarily out themselves. I don’t really see much difference between that and betraying a teammate, but then a lot of the “rules” in this show don’t hold together when you look at them closely from the outside, anyway.
If I were a Gnosia and there’s a doctor onboard, I’d totally claim to be an engineer and betray one of my teammates. That’s an easy way to get at least one human on my side.
Also, it looks like the amnesiac premise is conveniently being ignored for quite a number of episodes. I bet that Yuri’s amnesia is going to be relevant to the plot later, probably as part of a big reveal.
