(08x15) 188 - Yessir, That's Our Baby
Posted: Fri Jul 05, 2013 12:40 pm
This is one of the most moving episodes I've seen. When Father Mulcady mentioned that if the baby was turned into
the orphange that because she was of mixed-race that the other children would be cruel to her, that didn't make sense because children don't care about that, prejudice and bigotry can only be taught later on. When the 4077's attempts to get the baby out of Korea didn't work out they took her to the monastery where Hakayee referred to it as like making a bank deposit. Couldn't the 4077 have kept the baby, there would always be somebody available to look after her while others were working and after the war somebody could have adopted her and taken her home just as Trapper was getting ready to do with Kim in season 2 until Kim's mother came back.
