: ***SPOILARZ FOR TEH BABYSITTAR EPISODE!!!!1 DO NOT READ IF YOU HAZ NOT SEEN : IT YET*** : Let me begin by saying: Thank you, Frankie, and all people at 343 and Studio : 4C who were involved with making this happen. That episode was really : cool. : Now, that said, I have a couple of things that I am very confused about. : On page 288 of The Fall of Reach, we are told the following: "The sound : receivers in their armor could pick up a whisper at a hundred : meters." : And yet, Cal-141 had a Jiralhanae infantry unit saunter up to within (what : looked like) 15 meters of her position, close enough to pull off what he : did, and yet she failed to be aware of this until he was in the middle of : his move. : What the fail? : Was this cool scenario just not possible to portray without compromising on : the abilities of a MJOLNIR-clad SPARTAN-II? Or was this overlooked? Or was : this justified? Or what? : I love me the SPARTAN-II's, but if Cal-141's equipment was properly : functioning, then she brought the fail in a way that I have a hard time : believing any SPARTAN-II could. : The second thing that I am very confused about is, how in the HECK is that : Jiralhanae still alive? I saw the impact that Cal-141's blows had on that : thing. His brain, if it is indeed (presumably) located in his head, should : be a greyish-pink jelly with white bits floating around inside (coloration : also presumptuous). And even if it wasn't , he should either be comatose, : paralyzed, unconscious for a long time (read: days or weeks), or : SOMETHING. : You just don't get up after being backhanded and kicked in the head by a : SPARTAN-II in MJOLNIR. : If you could please help me to understand what had happened, my aching brain : would be very grateful. It hurt just LOOKING at that thing get hit. I think of it like when your scoped in on multiplayer. I guess the spartan would have been concentrating on the shot and perhaps even been drecting microphones towards the kill area
