Welcome to my TEDtalk.

Ahem.

WINNIE'S COUNT OF SARA'S MURDERS MAKES NO SENSE.

(Plain text: Winnie's count of Sara's murders makes no sense.)

Watching s2 ep3, I noticed something. Winnie says that Sara killed three people ("six if you count those kids"), but I can't think of a third person. There's Lewis and Norman, sure, but a third one?

Eric, Mike, and the Triplets were all confirmed Winnie, and while we haven't seen Alyssa's death, she died after the Triplets since Mike tells her about them when we see her awakening for the first time.

"Maybe Oliver?" I thought.

"I'm not sure if he counts as dead, but it would have to be. Everyone else was after Sara's phone call!" I said reassuringly to myself as I went to listen to the phone call just to make sure.

And then I realized she very clearly one (1) murder. Just one. Just Lewis.

Now. Obviously characters can lie. But why the fuck would she? She's clearly very upset, and is in shock that Winnie would kill three kids, and if she had killed more than just Lewis, wouldn't Winnie have called her out?

"But Analog!" I hear you say "why would Winnie lie to Norman?"

Simple. Either because Litho has managed to manipulate him into believing it's true, or because he's trying to keep Norman from wandering too far, and to keep him safely within Litho's reach. This would also match up with the exaggerated kill count.

I have more thoughts, but I think this gets the point across.

Ranking the Abnormals Cast by how Secret Their Secret Identities Are

???. Berserker

Berserker doesn't live as any Identity other than Berserker, so nobody knows his legal name anymore, except for like Alyssa, but he also doesn't actually have a secret Identity. He's an outlier and shouldn't be counted.

5. Mandie/Nightingale

Listen. There are people who have layers of cautions to make sure they're civilian and superhero identities can't be tied to each other. Then there's Mandie who constantly has Nightingale's signature weapon strapped to her thigh and knows a bit too much about Nightingale's costume. She wears her hair different, uses a different voice, covers more skin, is slightly more sarcastic, etc. as Nightingale, but anyone spending enough time around both of them will figure it out.

4. Catherine/Tesla Coil

I would like to say there is a big gap between Catherine and Mandie in terms of secretiveness. Catherine wears a wig, covers up her bionic arm and leg, wears a mask big enough to hide her burn scar, changes her voice, and hasn't sold some of the tech Tesla Coil uses. She's covered her bases. Her son didn't know until she told him, and he grew up with her in that identity. But when it comes down to it. There are only so many people with the resources to be Tesla Coil, and even less with the same abilities. People searching for that information will find it.

3. Rex/Elemaster

It helps that Rex has a more common power set, and that his civilian identity isn't publicly an empowered. People who interact with him are just going to think he's a kid born into wealth who the tabloids don't know is super into flowers (They do know, it's just not interesting enough). Bottom line, you won't know they're the same person unless you do a lot of deep digging, and/or he tells you.

2. Jet and Ignotus/Blaster

Strong advantage for being two people who share an identity. Nobody is sure what exactly Blaster's abilities are. He's probably a Mage. They're unpredictable. If somebody gets close, they'll soon notice whoever they suspect in the same room as Blaster, and neither one seems to be fake. They barely beat Rex on account of being two people instead of just one.

1. Victoria/Triplet

Victoria's first advantage is practice. The Masters are supposed to keep their identities close to their chests, and Victoria became a Master at a young age. Her second advantage is being aware of tech but generally not using it. She's the only member of the team whose identity Catherine couldn't get positive confirmation on because of that. Everyone else she knew, and then had the footage scrubbed so nobody else could confirm it. If you live near Victoria, you're not going to think this mess who wears nothing but hoodies and sweatshirts, has knocked on your door to warn you of paint fumes that might have made it into the ventilation system, and seems to trip on air (especially around that rich boy with the plants), is the warrior in full armor, wielding a sword, and disappearing in a plume of black smoke. You're just not going to make that connection.
