--- End quote ---

Notice what she also said about Hannelore (to her face, by the way). As I've already posted above, CoD is both Dora's baby and a central part of her self-esteem and identity. I really think that she doesn't like sharing it with anyone. So, there is always a little subconscious bitterness and resentment at new faces taking a little bit of that one thing that is uniquely and absolutely Dora's place, even in such a benign way.

The girl has a dump-truck full of issues, quite frankly.

Neko_Ali:
I'm thinking that Dora's reaction is less about Emily and more about Dora's tendency to assume the worst. She expects everything to blow up in her face all the time, so on hearing that Emily had a reaction to caffine and was high strung here reaction was 'Well, this idea sucked again.'  I'm... somewhat familiar with the feeling that no matter what you do, it's going to fail and how you can over-react to the least of setbacks, or automatically jump to the worst conclusion. Trust me, if that last one was an Olympic event... I would probably fail at it and break my leg in the process.

--- Quote from: cucumber error on 17 Dec 2015, 23:25 ---The fourth entry on this list explains the salamander thing. I've never watched Voyager and had no idea what to expect when googling "salamander episode never speak of this"  :psyduck:

--- End quote ---

I had no idea either, but I never could stand to watch much of Voyager.

--- End quote ---
I thought I'd seen all the episodes of Voyager, but I don't remember that one.

I don't think I'm going to run to watch it, either.

Zebediah:
The salamander episode was a bad episode even by the standards of Voyager. You're lucky to have missed it.

Now, if only Voyager had done "A Year of Hell" as a season-long arc as originally intended, instead of just a two-part episode with an it-never-happened reset at the end... but that's a conversation for another thread.
