Apologies if this has already been done to death, but I can't see the info I want, and frankly, life's too short to read through it all. No doubt someone will point me in the right direction if I've missed it.

So, River. Is she really supposed to be 'better' now just because she's resolved the repressed Miranda memory thing? After all she's been through what with having her superbrain chopped up, turned into a psycho killer an' all, I didn't find that very convincing.

That said, I've only seen the series through once and the film twice, so its entirely possible I've missed some point or other.

PENGUIN

I think she is better because she can now explain the images that were running through her head.

Cured? I doubt she will ever be cured.

I don't think she can be "cured". I think she may be better able to process the images and feelings that she has but her heightened sixth sense and loss of brain matter would seem to be permanent.

I always wondered how the brain manipulations would have made her good at soldiering... She's got the whole martial arts thing, blunt/blade/fire weapons... an all around killing machine with the muscle memory included.

I hope it's not some downloadable programing thing a la the Matrix.

I think what I'm trying to say is that surely this wouldn't have been the only disturbing thing going on in her subconscious?!

ZEEK

She didn't seem too fixed when she was freaking out about the reavers that were after them in Mr. Universe's compound. I think that alone shows she isn't 100%.

No. There could be thoughts of Atherton and Inara. Or Jane Fonda naked.
