The idea that the Little Ones are intentionally poisoning their finger nails is indeed a game changer. This points to a major intent to turn humans into new Little Ones as opposed to hunting and killing. We saw how effective the Little Ones were in Boulder and Fort Irwin.

We still don't have solid intel on the turn vs kill decision (or instinct?) of the Zeds but this line of thinking points to a very big intent to turn people vs kill them.

Brings up an interesting, potential, conundrum. How do you balance things when your food source is also your means of propagating the bloodline? How many do you turn vs how many do you keep in the pantry for dinner?

Tough balance to keep indeed. I do remember that Captain Long was partially eaten (presumably by the turned Chinook crew). Those kind of body changes requires a lot of calories. Just makes you wonder what the end-game is here.

Also, anyone notice that the Little Ones are also smart? They run & hide, lured soldiers towards the tree-line etc... like a hunter-prey type of intelligence.
