Ellana's Cultural Studies on Humanity Chapter 41:-On Lifemates and Friendship

But they are so unskilled that they are brushed aside with ease and so many pay the price for their misplaced loyalty.

It really is a sad irony. In fact, the women who met their fate guarding the hero are actually dispatched by a woman who was previously their superior and they loyally served. In fact, when the hero is initially captured the bad lady who later turns good is leading a group of guards including the one she attacks in the hallway. The poor woman would probably never guessed that the woman who she so obediently followed would actually later kill her.

You're right. The poor guard never saw the betrayal coming and I wonder had she turned spotting her, she would have hesitated anyway? After all it's difficult to pull a gun on someone who was once your boss. Either way she was doomed.

On the reverse, I wonder how the turncoat felt about dispatching women she probably knew and previously led into combat. Did she regret what she had to do? Or were the cute guards just obstacles in her path? Whether or not she knew them didn't matter to her. Besides, being their former officer meant the lady knew their tactics and was able to use that to her advantage.

She didn't seem to be too concerned with their wellbeing. Neither guard ever saw her coming. We had scene earlier in the movie the turncoat has martial arts training and in fact we had seen her use a neck chop. She could have easily knocked both women out but ended up killing them both. I think she was a cold as the main boss lady and saw the woman as nothing more than obstacles.

It's quite interesting that while the turncoat had that martial arts training, hence the option to use non-lethal she chose to kill the women outright. She does sound just as cold and dark as the big bad boss lady herself. I would say the turncoat is a definite candidate for the title of antiheroine. Essentially switching sides for own reasons and these happen to coincide with the goals of the hero, to defeat the big bad.

For something a little off topic form ECSH, here are the uniforms of the henchgirls from the 1973 movie Wonder Women that Meditions and I were discussing, for anyone who was curious. As you can see the girls are quite cute and the uniforms worth stealing.
