THIS, OMG! I've always wanted to see Carmen resenting a little to fight V.I.L.E. because of her childhood good memories and always wanted to see more of the V.I.L.E. operatives(the surnames of Sheena, Jean Paul and Antônio, more than we got about Gray and everything about Paper Star). Something that really gets to me is V.I.L.E.'s new class. It was supposed to be a WHOLE ENTIRE class and then they only gave us Spin Kick and Flytrap. Like, give us at least 5/6 new more villains. And the faculty, specially Coach Brunt, always emphasized how it was their best class and would easily take Carmen down and we barely see Spin Kick and Flytrap and yet they are easily taken down by Carmen and Shadowsan. Paper Star is still the best V.I.L.E. villain and Gray is still V.I.L.E.'s best overall character. I wanted to see more of Paper Star's class since it appears to be a different one from both Carmen's original class and Spin Kick and Flytrap's one. It apparently was after Carmen's original class but before Spink Kick and Flytrap's one. I wanted to see how her class felt about her being obviously Maelstrom's favorite, how did it felt for her to be the youngest agent of V.I.L.E., how did it felt for her being the operative who was the closest to take Carmen down, how did they reward her for the A.C.M.E. card(I always wondered how was payday at V.I.L.E. and how it became after their financial crisis caused by Carmen) more of her relationship with Lady Dokuso and the others(specially Tigress, Mime Bomb, and Le Chevre afrer what she did to him) and her graduation day. Coming back to Gray, I don't believe it was a full personality change since we saw his cute friendship with Black Sheep and he turned good at the end. Apparently, what Doctor Bellum did was turning off the bad instincts of Gray and turning off the good instincts of Carmen(at least that was what I understood). He was so complex and hard to completely understand, I love him sm. Speaking of which, New Zealand needed a better national villain. Australia had THE Graham "Gray" Calloway aka Crackle and the the kiwis had a gross guy named "Neal, The Eel"(still the worst codename of the series, even "Graham Crackle" was better than that). #JusticeForNewZealand

how graham's amnesia was weakened

all cards on the table, i really like amnesia tropes, especially with bad guy turned good or at least bad guy temporarily being good. i just love how amnesia can give morally gray or straight up evil characters a way to explore what they are outside being evil

so ofc my favorite character was gray from carmen sandiego (tho i did like him out of the gate for his friendship with carmen in the backstory)

so i was intrigued when he returned as an amnesiac and we get to see him actually normal and uninterested in villainy. It was interesting seeing graham's strong attatchment to morality in season 2, asking carmen after the heist if they were the "good guys". it is a bit cliche, but it shows that if graham does have a sense of right or wrong.

ofc graham def joined vile for the wrong reasons of wanting to be trained as a thief. though to know that maybe with a more stable career, graham couldve have been satisfied with his life and not turn to questionable means of making a liveliehood

it helps provide more perspective to vile agents as a whole, gesturing the notion that maybe if they didn't join vile when they were young and reckless, they wouldn't be trapped in an enviorment that forces them deeper into villainy through adulthood

until s4 came and lowkey retconned it all. now graham's mindwipe wasnt just amnesia, its also a "personality rewrite". which is to me, a cowardly move. now any moral concerns gray brings up prior is moot. instead of graham's amnesia revealing what could happen to vile agents if they were placed in a healthier enviorment, showing that the agents arent the true evil, it just becomes a pointless u-turn that reveals nothing about who gray actually is.

Gray no longer is a character impacted by circumstance, but always a morally bad character who was temporarily replaced by a good person

now that could work. it could open the debate whether gray should return to a calmer life, even if that robs him of his true autonomy, or return to vile knowing that he at least is not being controlled by another party. but i mean, carmen sandiego is a story about carmen and not gray, so such a complex moral debate would take time away from the main character.

its such a sad decision to know that whatever graham says during s1 and s2 isnt at all true to his character. It seems to me the story just isnt willing to give any vile agent any complexity because that could cause carmen to question who she should be really fighting, other agents or the vile faculty.

[closedrodrigo]

Im curious if that would happen.

*Player and The Troll are cyberbullying each other*

Flytrap: Did he make any spelling mistakes?

The Troll: No, but he did say who instead of whom.

Flytrap: Call it.

The Troll: *typing* I think you’ll find it’s “whom”.

Spinkick: Quick! Block him before he can respond!
