I don't know what you were saying back, though. Maybe your BSL's more advanced than mine.'

Although the Underdogs angst about hurting or killing people, they feel little guilt about killing clones. Grant's technologist, Nathaniel Pearce, has the ability to make more human clones, but he and Grant agreed to keep them simple so they wouldn't be tempted to treat them like people.
