Transcript
00:00I know you can't tell me what's going to happen, but these guys can survive a lot.
00:04When do we have to start being worried at the ghoul's injuries? You know what I mean?
00:09What's the levels here?
00:10You know, I don't know. And that's a question that I've asked before. I don't know. I mean,
00:17obviously, a lot of that, the actual physiological response of a ghoul is down to the game,
00:24and I can't speak to that. But I do think it's curious that Lucy doesn't know and probably has
00:30never thought to ask. You know, as lovely and optimistic as Lucy is, she does still have a
00:36spoiled, selfish and naive element to her that comes from being raised in the vault. I think that
00:45the scene you're referring to, the one at the end of five, I don't think she's thinking how much can
00:52this man take. I don't think she's even thinking, is this going to kill him? I think she's thinking,
00:58screw you. I think she is completely motivated by pain and hurt. And that is so interesting to me,
01:06because I think Lucy is a very calculated person. I think she thinks before she acts,
01:10and the amount of time she's spent on the wasteland and with the ghoul, she's acting on instinct. She
01:14wants to hurt someone just because they've hurt her. And I think that is so interesting. That's
01:21character development, not for good, but it's character development.
