He has control in theory. In practice, he still needs time to learn how to operate the ship before he can do the more complex operations.

Rush knows, and admits that he don't know how to use the controls, cos he didn't tell anyone about the bridge, so how can he lie about that? (xxxevilgrinxxx's 3). Therefore Rush don't have to lie to himself (morbosfist's 4), at least not in this case. So, what's the point with 5? General statement about Rush?

I've yet to see the ep, so all my conversation points are in general and in general, people lie to themselves because it's easier than dealing with the truth, easier than dealing with the responsibility, easier than accepting the blame, easier than dealing with a lot of things. Do I think Rush is lying to himself? Yes.

Ok, general statement, had nothing to do in particular with "Awakening", and the conversation between daedalus91 and morbosfist. And, I thought I've missed something.

Originally posted by xxxevilgrinxxx View Postwell, we;re here in the Awakenings thread, Aftermath is a whole other folder, so any discussions on the matter I'd put there As for this particular ep, I don't see it until Friday, so I reserve judgment and fall back on the general statement made - which I took to be talking about Awakenings, given where we are
And, I wasn't talking of "Pathogen", but of Rush's talking to Gloria, where he says, that he don't know exactly how to use the controls, so, that he rather use the autopilot again, than to destroy the ship (I think he said that already in "Aftermath").
Anyway, it's not wrong that Rush lies to himself, and others all the time, but not in this special case.
