Just watched this.. Two questions?


I really enjoyed this film, I wasn't expecting to like it so much. Anyway, I have two questions that bugged me a little

1) How did those two nerds manage to capture Raylan Givens? He was a warrior that was sent to earth to protect Number Four and he gets outdone by two nerds who don't have a gun (they were using Sam's gun later in the movie)? We saw him in two other fight scenes and he won both, so I don't understand how those two managed to capture him. He also had cameras up in and around the house so would have saw them coming.

2) How/why did Number Six's protector also get killed if the villains were killing off the Numbers in order? They shouldn't have been after her until they killed #4 and #5, so did her protector die another way or what?

Hopefully someone that has read/has knowledge of the book can answer these...

Answer #1: my theory here, is that he had left the house to go find the nerds and take down the site, but as he says it was a trap by the bad guys from the begining, so i think the bad guy aliens were there waiting for him and over powered him that way.

Answer #2: number six does state that her and her protector had been hunting the bad guys, so it could very well be she/he was killed during a gun fight.

Hope it makes sense .

The website belonged to the 2 fat UFO believers who used it to lure Henri on the orders of the Mogs but they weren't there when he was captured.
They returned AFTER John rescued his guardian because they still wanted the half of the stone. If they had set the trap then left they would have taken it with them.
As for how 2 fat nerds overpowered an alien warrior - the story needed it to happen!

2) It's only the ones with the powers that were being killed in order. The protectors/guardians can be killed any time, though.
