Just think: who's the baddest in this whole series?
Tachyon, that's who. And Tachy's a girl.
IOW, the entire basis for your statement is invalid.

I'm suprised he didn't get shot. The watcher just kind stood there. Maybe he wasn't going to cause any harm, but try and negotiate something with them.
I thought Jonas's behavior was extremely odd -- like he was playing at being badass to divert suspicion that he might be affiliated with the Order.
And bethy, I think your theory about there being various parts of the Order, Oppy being with one part and the Watchers being with another, is extremely intriguing. Personally I haven't seen enough yet to decide whether I agree or disagree, but will keep an eye out for clues from here out.
For those who are trying to decide whether the Watchers are "good" or "bad" -- that's a false dichotomy. Everyone in the Order -- heck, everyone in the series -- is likely to have his or her own agenda. Calling a particular person's, or faction's, agenda "good" or "bad" is far too simplistic.
On a related point: Kelly, I don't think that Bree would need to think the Order is "good" for her to agree to go with them. All she would need to think is that the consequences of her going with them are less awful than the consequences of her refusing to go. (Your own response to spacie makes a very similar point.)

Rob, there doesn't need to be a "clear distinction" between the two -- there could very well be different factions within the Order that are vying for control. In fact, it happens within most organizations. Ever hear the term "internal politics"?
dustfairy, welcome! I think you have an excellent point.
The two subjects I personally wish people would drop are the alleged "romantic undercurrents" between any of the characters other than Bree and Daniel (Bree and Jonas, Daniel and Jonas), and the question about going to the cops.
The first subject is such a Sweet Valley High subject (OMG will they get together or won't they?

) -- it's as interesting as the stuffed animals -- IOW, NOT.
And the second subject has been discussed to death. Bree et al. don't have a story that any halfway-decent cop would buy. In fact, they might get into trouble for filing false reports. So can we please drop it already and move on?
