Ah, no - I meant merely that if her career at Spectrum were to come to a grinding halt at some point in the future, then she might well consider going underground to continue her fight with the Mysterons in concert with the bikers of Roswell. Mind you, she didn't seem to be in the least bit fazed at the prospect of baiting a couple of heavily-built thugs as a means to an end: perhaps not something she'd cheerfully walk into without batting an eyelid - even with a solid grounding in martial arts - unless she'd grown up in a more than usually rough neighbourhood.
I can see parallels here with Lieutenant Ro Laren of Star Trek TNG: someone who is as at least as loyal to the cause as the more orthodox heroes, but who has got there the hard way and who therefore has no compunction about breaking a few rules if it produces results. People like that add spice to situations: she's far closer to my idea of a future love interest for Scarlet than the ghastly Destiny. If only there were more episodes in the can with which to explore these avenues of speculation - but then of course that's what the fanfic is for. I reckon this episode will feature as the background for quite a few future offerings in that line.
