 		What i don't get is with Miranda working for the 3p, infiltrating Kurt etc why on earth would she leave her cogniva log in details just under a book in her apartment where Kurt could easily find them! - surely she could think of a better place to put something that important, in her sock draw, in the teapot, under the bed etc etc!!

Yes, that bugs me too. It's as if she wanted him to find it. I mean, if he's got the keys to her appartment, it was only a matter of time, right?

The other thing that doesn't sound right is what she said:
Quote:
Kurt. Don't try to follow me, you're smarter than that. You don't want to get hurt.

That doesn't sound like a 3P murderer on the run.

Yes, it makes me wonder if she actually developed feelings for him (not part of the plan!)...

Sends chills down my spine to be honest, a little like ethan in Lost, "If you keep following me, I will kill one of them." Confused

I think i can put my mind at rest, as Izzy has pointed out in the update for today, if she's able to hacks Kurts Key, then a little monitoring on the cognivia site would be no problem. Thats how she was alerted

Why would you leave something like that lying around! for someone like Kurt to find. UNLESS, she was relying on on her womanly charms to keep Kurt stupid.

She told him that she was involved in a clinical trial for a Barrow-Feld treatment, so she probably felt confident that if he did come across the information he would never be suspicious about it, and trusted her hold over him enough to believe he'd never use it.

If he'd been a good boyfriend, he'd have asked her about borrowing her Cognivia login, or at least asked if she could look up the information for him. Bad Kurt! Wink

 		Well I need something to hold up my halo... Smile

I think they should do an updated picture of Miranda with the red hair.

I e-mailed Violet about that to see if there was anyway she could get the missing persons report changed... only got the auto response though

 		You are all assuming Miranda is 3P here...Should we not open the [SPEC] that Miranda is infact part of the real group that took the cube?
I mean, ur right, it doesnt sound like a 3P murderer on the run...So maybe thats because it ISNT a 3P murdere...

Quick fact-check: Miranda doesn't really have Barrow-Feld, right? I've been changing the bits all over the wiki that say that she does until I noticed that she's on the front page as "sufferer of Barrow-Feld".

Ceretin 6 prelim report says
Quote:
Serious psychiatric or medical illness, cognitive enhancer dependence in the last two years or a history of substance abuse, resulted in exclusion.


So she couldn't have been on the trial if she had it, right? And Kurt's only seen her taking the pills that match Oxxypro.

I think it was just part of her cover as:
1) as you said the pills Kurt saw her take were Ozzypro
2) again as you said if she did she would have been barred from the ceretin 6 test (though with one her alias she could probably get around that...)
3) her cogniva user name, found in her apartment, linked to the ceretin6 trail not the Veritana one
4) i think it was just another way to manipulate poor Kurt, gain his sympathies, making him an even more willing alibi esp as he thinks he is helping to protect her secret illness from coming out
5) I would imagine she picked Barrow-Field as it was probably known that cogniva was working on it (so as to provide her excuse for all her visits to cogniva), even if the main article about the promising results wasn't published in the sentinel until quiet recently

 		Well, I'm given to think Miranda actually does have BFS. mean, she has Asthma-stuff as well. But like, her behaviour seems ffairly consistent with what I might expect someone to have BFS to be. As Violet says: "how do you suggest to your co-worker that the nice girl we both work with seduced your friend, murdered your boss, blew up an apartment building and skipped town?" That seems to ring of Barrow-Feld, to me. Not that I have a good solid base-line fFor Barrow-Feld tendencies, but like, you know, it affects moral judgement centers.

I suppose it's fFairly up in the air at this time, but I'm thinking yes on the Barrow-Feld.
