The signs that it was coming...(VSS episode 10 and 11 SPOILERS)

Thinking about the reply to my last post in the "conjectures" thread on here, I thought I'd really think here, because there definitely were signs BC was from Taraaku (and a man) that, of course, we didn't catch except in retrospect. I thought I'd list the ones I could think of here..anyone who can think of more is more thanwelcome to post em up..

-BC can read the men's writing and consoles. Ezra assumes it's because she's an elite citizen, but we all know why (episode 1, first season)
-BC is the one who sends the information to both Taraaku and Mejerr. Pretty easy for her to send information with those capsules as well (episode 3 or 4, first season)
-Rat Bastard Rabat hits on BC, and even propositions her. But then he steps back, saying that he smells "gunpowder" on her, and that it isn't wise to try to get together with her (episode 8, first season)
-BC refuses to let Bart stay in her room when the men's room is flooded - she doesn't say "no", but rather says "I'm afraid that's not possible" (episode 7, second season)
-BC shows indifference to Bart's advances, but cryptically says that she will "just accept" anything he gives her in good faith, including his feelings for her (episode 10, first season and second season)

This was a greatly guarded mystery, and I was pleasantly surprised when they dropped the bomb on us in episode 10. The beauty of the stuff listed is that it's pretty much minor, inconsequential events...until you take everything into context of what happened in episode 10. Very nice!

Lol,I always knew there was something fishy about him! http://animeboards.com/t26515/s.html

Ever since episode 3 of the first stage I've suspected her to be more than what she was letting on.There were other subtle hints at it like how she was impressed by Hibiki's effort but was never really enthusiastic.Also what would an elite with a good life would win by joining a band of pirate.He followed Magno but never seemed to share her ideals

Although in the end of episode 11 he does decide to go back to the Nirvana when again he could have stayed on Taaraku as a decorated hero.

I'd have to say that BC didn't follow Magno's ideals at first, but then came to respect and follow them in time. I really can't bring myself to call BC a he, so I'll go with "she" when I say that she did say to Magno that there was "one constant - that you are a wonderful person". I think it was the classic case of the double agent embracing the ideals of those they are deceiving. BC's actions in episode 11 pretty much solidify that.

I'm just glad that the men give BC the respect she deserves, and there's no real "snickering" going on in the background at seeing him/her. To the men, that must have been the ultimate sacrifice, becoming a woman...
