Considering that when Roy Batty broke Deckard's fingers, I was more empathising with Roy than with Deckard, I never had a problem there, either.*g*
Scorpius doesn't quite forget that Crais exists in ItLD - he did leave orders that Crais was not to be allowed anywhere near Talyn - but he certainly underestimated him right to the very end, and Family Ties is the first example of this continuing trend. (Whereas Crais proves in FT that he does have insight in Scorpius, correctly predicting Scorpius would be willing to sacrifice the Gammak Base rather than let John be killed.) It would be interesting to speculate why. Any ideas?
