Aha! I was thinking I'd be the first to link his death to Gabriella's! I was going to write, "Has anyone else noticed how his death mirrors that of Gabriella's?" Sure she's on a stairway and he's on the tracks, but for the most part, after being shot in the back while fleeing, they shared basicly the same position in their respective death throes. I felt more for her though, than him, because of the chivalry in me. For I feel that if it had been me, I'd have tackled her before shooting her. But that's perhaps just my preference. (Leftover from an issue I have with Commander William Riker in a certain episode of "STTNG".) One of Colonel Ryan's last thoughts may have been, "Ah, so this is how it feels. My sincere regrets, Gabriella. Can you forgive me?" Or it could have been, "Would you believe I missed it by just this much? Sigh."
