Okay. How come, in the beginning of the movie, the Puppet Master is
this evil person, wiping out people's minds and enslaving the husks,
killing people, etc., and our heroine is out to fight this evil...
But at the end of the movie the same being talks to her in this
wise-old-man voice, proposes a marriage of minds, and she goes
along with it?
What gives? Murder and brain-wiping are okay for godlike cyberbeings
who know all about evolution?
