How did Seagull overcome the Serum?


Does anybody know how he recovered instantly from the serum? He was phased out at first and then all of a sudden got up and killed everyone. The only explanation I could think of was that he used his martial arts training to overcome the effects of the drug?

The serum simply doesn't work on Seagulls, only on humans. The bad guys didn't take that into account. Big mistake.

He initially faked that it was affecting him. Took advantage of the villains, semi - releasing him cleaned them up...then collapses from the effects of the drug and you see his colleagues racing to help him.

Especially since the serum turned Father Tomasino into a sweaty, truth-telling wreck. "I told the Senator that sometimes you mutilate people...and then sometimes you even do that to the little childrend. Way too funny!

reply

It was funny, sort of. They give the priest truth serum, and that's the truth he tells.

Horrible though it is, it's useless and boring to Zagon.

There's a kind of justice in there, somewhere

The best lack all conviction, while the worst are full of passionate intensity.
