In my opinion, they aren't going to need fire when they have the capacity to clean, stitch and dress a wound. They have the training to reset a broken arm, but need to use fire? Cauturizing a would, like a tourniquet is a last resort method. Char boiling the flesh is a stop gap messure for traumatic bleeding only.
Sugar isn't going to burn hot or long enough to cauterize a wound. It'd hurt more than anything because of how slow it "melts."
Hey Nik.. the burns can also be from a cigar or cigarette. You know how some abusers do their kids? Also, what if they're "Brands" of fealty?
I don't see him as over confident. Just the opposite. He seems to have set up multiple ways of getting information--for instance he knows enough to know that The Gatekeeper is a threat. I think keeps all the higher ups together so he can keep tabs on them.Quote:

I'm hoping part II fleshes out some of my theories about the hierarchy. It was obvious that Marcus didn't want Gatekeeper as number II though.
I don't recall hearing anyone said we have X amount of doctors so if we maim one or end contracts with one we will have others.
Marcus is flexing his "muscle", hey you don't fix him then you don't eat/live/have the pleasure of being our doctor and the perks it may have.
I do see the only doctor we know of being assisted by no one more than a blind girl however.
Everyone is obviously working hard. Everyday.
Then where is doctor #2?
In the leaders apartments?
Then why didn't Marcus have "his doctor" check out Mike?
Unless I missed something large, Tanya is it.
There could be some other people that are "medics/nurses/soldiers" that could have her position fixing him right away but I think she is the lead surgeon/head of medical department around the colony.
Terminating her contract could mean her death, then they could replace her with someone else from a lesser "class".
Maybe Tanya was burned by accident not punishment..
(On second thought. Nah...)
Muffins,
Listent to the part where Hope spills the "pee" on him. Listen to his rant and you'll hear him mention she's not the only doc anymore.
He says quote "You're not the only medical authority around here anymore" unquote. This is at 13:24
Before that he shows some contempt by making her "FETCH" some coffee.
They killed the one being pecked at by the bird, then killed the second one with building and bullets, and played chicken with arrowheadQuote:
