Episode 7: Idolator
Posted: Sat Jul 12, 2014 7:16 am
I am re-watching the series with a friend and we got past this episode the other day and it led to some interesting discussion and a question we couldn't figure out.
The real Jarti was dead, his body still in the Ghost dubbing machine. They claimed he'd died a long time ago, but he still looked pretty fresh. What gives?
So the duplicates - are they full cyborg with robot brains or are they clones with a few replacement parts? (The guy in the beginning and ending of the episode that identifies Jarti says that his walk shows that his legs are prosthetic below the knee - from which I infer they are organic above the knee)
If they are clones, then that means you can read/write organic brains as well as cyber brains (external memory).

Weird, the Wikipedia entry says Jarti is a drug trafficker and in the episode they pretty much said the opposite
