Why couldn’t Cheetara have assumed that Slythe was being deceptive? It seems a reasonable assumption to make. Accepting a "surrender or die" command from Slythe at face value seems incredibly naive. As KurtulanSama said, in such a situation you should act assuming worst possible outcome, which would the death of all three. |

I don't think "Native Son" will focus as much on Tygra as the fans think. The crew has been very up front that the first season is pretty much all about Lion-O and his development and we're still technically in the "first" season as it was plotted by the creators. We'll get to see what the other cats are up to as they try to regain what was lost, but for the most part the story will still focus on Lion-O as he comes out of his trials and tries to heal up. |

I am a big fan of T/P even if lion-o never gets with cheetara. How long do you think the triangle will go? I wish you would post more!! I was hoping we would learn a little on tygra. |

Basically these were the possible options (not knowing Panthro was coming). 1. She surrenders and they all die. 2. She surrenders and they get taken prisoner. 3. She fights and they all die. 4. She fights and they win, but Tygra dies. Idk maybe I'm as naive as she is, but I would try for option 2. |

5. She fights and they all survive. Anyway, I would have to disagree with option 2. She should never have assumed that Slythe would have let any of them live due to the reasons I mentioned before. Also, I don't think she "acted for the best possible outcome." Her's was more like a knee-jerk reaction. Tygra was in danger, so she just HAD to "stick with him" (a very revealing line). You are right about one thing. In hindsight, if we are to assume that surrender would lead to certain death for all, it would narrow down the choices. Anyway, I liked this ‘argument’. It was entertaining. Cheers. |
OK guys/girls I will get to the point. With this episode.
I you guys watched "We Were Solediers" with Mel Gilbson. The went guns blazin know fully that they were going to die. In an army, one does not surrender to the enemy just because a few soldiers have been captured. If that would have been the case, all you have to do to win a battle to capture a few soldiers and you're set. Lion-O did the logical thing. We you really believe the enemy when they say "surrender or he die"? Would you REALLY trust them? They're ruthless enemies. Now for T/C I'm taking no sides to this. I just observing it from the victims point of view. She knew she was leading him. Those who support the T/C, I have nothing against the T/C. If guys/girls (Hardcore Tigra fans) would be in Lion-O shoes, you would react differently. No way one would be alright with what happened last episode. You would not trust a person to get close to you emotionally--- More so after they overrule you decision. Balgus82 said that if Tigra because Lion-O decided to continue fight is absurd. In war, no whats to see anyone die but in reality it not going to happen. People will die. It not good to let Tigra to die but when the table turns (Lion-O dies) it ok move on. This is not cool. I must say. |

Say something like this battle would keep happening. And one person would keep getting captured. Lion-O keeps fighting, and the one captured dies. After a while Lion-O's going to be fighting by himself. |

I love "New Alliances" because a lot of what happens with the characters is morally neutral and no one is completely "right" or "wrong."
Lion-O is right to stand up for the recaptured Lizards and working without the knowledge of new generals he made a solid command decision based on what knowledge he had available. Cheetarah's excuse of "Jaga told me to" is a bit of a cop out. Yes he asked her to look after Lion-O but she still lead him on and isn't taking responsibility for hurting him. He shouldn't say he's fine with things if he isn't, but he's trying to be a good brother and put on a good face for Tygra. Tygra is still insubordinate and letting his prejudices blind him to the bigger picture, but he still sees the Lizards as the people that killed his father so his apathy is understandable. The stand of is the best yet, both sides are both right and wrong for different reasons. Cheetarah did give up way too easily, but taking the chance of sacrificing Tygra, even if she didn't care about him is cold. Lion-O was probably betting that Tygra could find a way out of it, but he's still betting with his brother's life. Like I said, great episode. |

And btw if Tygra really wanted to kill Lion-O then Lion-O would be dead right now. No one was there to stop him. |

TCats are going to need more help. |
Here’s a summary of the arguments in defence of Lion-O/against Cheetara:
- Lion-O decision to attempt to free the captured lizards was rational and completely fit in with his ultimate vision of uniting the animals. Even his attempt to do so on his own may be justified as he was able to hold his own against an entire battalion (at the beginning of the episode). Also, he had no knowledge that Kaynar and Addicus would be there. - Slythe, on Mumm-Ra’s orders had been hunting the ThunderCats since the fall of Thundera. He had made his intention to kill the ThunderCats known. For example, he may have succeeded in the ‘Song of The Petalars’ if Panthro hadn’t come to their rescue. - Knowing this, Cheetara’s decision to surrender and take Slythe at this word can be viewed as incredibly naïve. Without speculating, the only logical option to maximise the positive outcome was to continue the fight, which Lion-O got right. - Cheetara’s decision was an emotionally motivated, knee-jerk reaction (“I need to stick with him.”). She disregarded her own advice about “sticking together” and undermined Lion-O authority on the battlefield, right in front of the enemy. - Cheetara, a Cleric, directly defied Lion-O, the Lord of the ThunderCats, who she is sworn to protect, nearly getting him killed. Moreover, any rational person in a ‘bodyguard’ type role would give precedence to the King over a Prince. |

She could of thrown her staff to buy time for tygra and used her speed to get the staff. |

And Drunk driving is not the same because when you driving drunk you're actually choosing to drink and drive. Tygra neither chose to be influenced or knew he was being influenced until after he came to his senses. |
