I don’t think I understand why Dax shot the person who was exposed to the Harp without a protective suit. Can someone explain it?
Same question. Maybe I wasn’t listening closely enough? Was there a detail I missed? I assumed he’d be dead, but clearly he wasn’t, but for some reason they had to execute him? I’m lost.
We asked Sparky the Robot, the mascot of Tor Labs, and here’s what they said:
“People don’t recover from Harp exposure. They die slowly, from apathy, indifference, self-neglect. Terminating them before they reach that point is seen as a mercy.”
