Why was Dr. Sanders (the real one) personality saved on a wedge to begin


with? After he was killed by Alpha, it was transferred to the active Whiskey, which makes sense. But how come they had it saved? Does it mean all stuff members minds are saved this way? for what purpose?
Come to think on it, did they ever explain where all the personalities they used to imprint the actives with came from?

That's a good question about Dr. Saunders. I'll have to rewatch to find out.

As for the personalities, they're all essentially composites. Topher takes a little from A, a little from B, a dash from C, and creates a personality.

I believe it's mentioned that Rossum is the number one selling manufacturer of brain scanning medical equipment for hospitals. This is no doubt where their data comes from.

Every person who's ever had their brain scanned by one of their machines has probably become an involuntary imprint for Rossum.

Seize the moment, 'cause tomorrow you might be dead.

I did rewatch, and my impression is that the Dr. Saunders Whiskey was imprinted with was wholly cobbled together by Topher, and not a backup of the real one at all.

I got the same impression, also he would be like why am I in a girls body!!
