Romantic tragedy or Karma?
Do you think that Renfield's death before learning about his child was a case of romantic tragedy from Amy procrastinating or a case of Karma from the inhumane acts they allowed and followed in GenTech?

I also find it sad that they kept flirting in a casual way after their intimate encounter that night... He continued to try and pursue her, yet she batted her eyelashes waved it off every time. She was always on one side of her desk and he on the other, for months. I am not sure exactly what I would do in her situation, no one is perfect, but it just makes me sad...
What if she told him and he decided not to continue the investigation behind GenTech's back, would he have lived? Depending on when she told him, would he stop midway for the sake of the child, or pursue justice and keep on? I think they would have made a wonderful power couple, and with both of their brains working together perhaps they could bring GenTech down. I know we'll probably never know, but it's worth thinking over.

I think it was karmic because he was only looking to save Kata and not Tau and in some way, that was still wrong. Tau would still be subjected to Dennison’s treatment and then slavery from an owner from the failure to get him out of there.
I also think it’s a tragic love story because Amy’s beliefs got in the way of her expanding the relationship between herself and Renfield. Now, she will never have the chance to see where it goes with herself and her baby.
