5-054: Legion Cast – Interview and Evaluation Room


Reading Felicity

Felicity is reasonably good at covering her reactions, but Oliver believes has been able to obtain quite a bit of information information about her.  When Felicity first perused his results screen, she was almost immediately surprised by what she read, suggesting Oliver’s raw IQ results were quite high, or at least, higher than Felicity expected.  It probably helped that during the test he recognised a number of questions that were identical and several more very similar to questions on tests that he had answered previously, allowing him to answer them quickly.  Oliver would know from his psychology studies that, because cognition takes time, time taken to solve problems is one way to measure intelligence, so having an excellent memory and being able to regurgitate answers from previous tests is one way to skew one’s results on an IQ test.

The next thing that happened is that Felicity’s attention was drawn to one particular result on the personality test (while reading she frowned briefly, once), Oliver suspects that there is one area of concern that this has highlighted for her.

Regarding what he guesses to be part three, she was actively interested in those results.  Her reaction was difficult to interpret, not negative, but not clearly positive either.  

Results

FYI, Oliver may or may not get to see his results.  When I work out if that is likely to happen or not I will share them with you, and either you both get to see them or only you do, but until then you can both be in the dark… 

Interview

She says, “Ah, you’re a Utilitarian!  

“But tell me, your answer, saying that the moral choice should be obvious, suggests you believe in an absolute and intuitive right and wrong.  Is that so?  Or, is there a conscious framework you can employ to make such evaluations?”

  1. Oliver Starr says:

    “Morality is beautiful, thus it is in the eye of the beholder. When you gain enough information, your intuition will know the way. There is, however, “cold” morality and “warm” morality.

    Cold of course being a statistical analysis of what’s “best” for everyone. Pros versus cons. Net gain.

    Warm morality considers the emotions of those involved and can be more frivilous, unreliable and uncertain.”

    Oliver gives a little smile.

    “A healthy balance of both keeps one luke-warm on the inside.”
