TJ's psych evaluations

[Sgt Detritus]

So, because a talk she had with Spencer, Young asks TJ to chat everyone on board from a psych point of view....


So why on Earth didn't she talk to Spencer first!!!!!!?????? ie give do his evaluation first??

Spoiler:

I suppose if the rumours are true about Spencer topping himself in the next episode, the fact that TJ seems not to have evaluated him would allow her to do a bit of guilt acting

Oh, one other thing, during St Ronald of Greer's chat with TJ was it just me or did he seem to suggest that he thought that anyone who wasn't in the military was beneath him??

I liked Rush's eval the best.

'No, thank you.'

Heh, and that quirky smile before he shut the door. Man's hilarious.

He's just demonstrating the British working class's attitude to stuff like psychiatry ie that it is a load of old squit

british working class?
i think it's more of the supergenius elitist snobbery than anything else

Rush is far from an elitist, he is a working class, salt of the earth type made good. The reason he seems self important is because, well, he has bloody well earned it!

he is NOT salt of the earth
he IS an elitist

you do not need to be born upper class to be an elitist
"being an elitist" is a state of mind

it is a state of mind in which you arrogantly view yourself as vastly superior to nearly everyone else around you while making it a point to inform everyone - directly or indirectly - how you view yourself and how you view them

Borlorks mate!

[Tabula Rasa]

IMHO Rush's machiavellian nature is very much in evidence here. He's two steps ahead of everyone else on board and see's no reason to open up his thought processes to others.

Hey guys! Please refer to the original topic.

If he's a known problem it may very well sway her reactions to others. Really she could be trying to form a baseline by which to evaluate the rest of the crew.

Greer just has daddy issues, Spencer is just Bipolar, like it has been said the group on destiny wasnt chosen for this, everyone is a little crazy, its just to what degree of crazy are ya!

Welcome to Destiny.

You don't have to be crazy to work here.

But it doesn't help if you are.

It could also be that she is giving him some space. She has a talk with him, young gives him he'll, and then psych evals are scheduled and he's first? He'd probably lose it right there and think everyone is out to get him.

Well they're would probably be a certified psyciatrist in the first place.

[The Prophet]

Probably avoiding her, or he had some duties to attend to.

Such as guarding the water.

That's all the duties I can think that could be set. Besides regular excersize.

I don't think Greer thinks people who aren't in the military are beneath him, I think he has trust issues with people who aren't in the military.

You know what I can't figure out? Why is Young so convinced that TJ is fine, who is going to evaluate HER? I mean, he should know that it must be emotionally difficult for her, that she just quit her job. I hate the stones, but perhaps the evaluations are where the stones could be useful, 1. they could have an actual psychologist/psychiatrist evaluate the crew on Destiny, 2. The crew could potentially feel more comfortable to be honest, and 3. Someone could actually evaluate TJ. I'm sure there are more reasons...
