So, going by that rounded up 4,000 years that they've been rounding up and the number of they've apparently been killed (206) by Savage that would leave their average age at 19 and that's assuming there weren't times where they might've died before he got to them or got one but the other ended up surviving long enough to die without him. Do they "wake up" at the same time every time or is there inconsistencies? Because neither Kendra or Carter, from what we've seen have ever been that young. Wouldn't it make sense for them to manifest or start to at the exact age they were when they died? For some reason I get the feeling they threw numbers and the idea out there and didn't bothering putting much thought into it. Kendra's story would be so much more interesting if it was actually about escaping destiny and breaking the cycle but instead it looks like they're hung up on delivering shipping bate.
There's a world where the ending somewhat could have worked, but it did not work on like every level.
No one likes Carter.
At all.
Quite a few seem to like him on Twitter but it's hard to tell if they're genuine or if it's people just being sycophantic ass kissers on there.
No, as I posted on the previous page (and everyone ignored D=) the plot has actually dictated that Carter and Kendra only reincarnate if they are killed by Savage, and that Savage can only kill them if they regain their memories. Savage purposely locked Carter's memories away knowing that Kendra was among the time traveling group, so rather than wait for him to regain his memories, kill him, and absorb his life energy, he purposely sealed Carter's memories to place Kendra in this exact situation.
Usually Savage waits until they're together after their memories awaken to kill them, but since he knew that Kendra was time hopping, there wasn't a need.
What would there be to stop Kendra or Carter dying before that happens or they meet or even before Savage kills them? Especially in those earlier eras where dying young came much easier? What if they reincarnated in a place Savage probably shouldn't have been able to reach? I don't remember that being the rule, just that Savage increases his power every time he kills them and that's why he seeks them out and can apparently sense them after they do, he doesn't need to kill them for their reincarnation. Old Kendra who is still alive for some reason and managed to apparently stay away from him until she dies. Besides that, Kendra was out of the time line for 150 years so what's happened in, what I would assume, at least two other times Carter reincarnated? It's also irrelevant because once Kendra is back in her time line the whole Carter thing is going to change. They just set this up for the fall out that's going to probably happen in the next episode and we get some "I should've killed him" drama. Granted there was the thing about Savage killing them 206 times over "4,000 years" but as I said before that number just seems iffy like it's something the writers pulled out without putting much thought into it which seems to be a problem for all these Berlanti produced super hero shows with sacrificing the integrity of characters for the sake of plot. Are show bibles still a thing? I understand they may rely more on assistants and script coordinators but they still have physical ones, right? I would love to see this show's or any of these Berlanti produced super hero shows' bibles.
Then thing is, again, that wasn't her Carter and she, as it stands hasn't even been around for 150 years at that point, shit is going to be altered anyway when she goes back to her present unless they end up hand waving the paradox which they probably will.
