Tom's mother

I think its likely she was taken or killed. Not during the abduction but possibly after. After Tom is taken away he seems to go through a serious of tests or analysing machines. One of which seems to scan him and identify his mother who has a label code. It brings up an image of his mother on a screen and then the words "Terminate File" or similar come up. However you never truly find out what exactly happens to her as you never see her again after the abduction and other than his father weeping over her picture later on, no other mention is made. So its really up for speculation. But that scene with the word Terminate and her ID code made me think that this was set in some kind of strict totalitarian state where everyone is a number. And all those experiments in the lab seems like they have some weird interest in biology or tampering with species or something. So perhaps because of her miscarriage and 'unusual' child she was deemed to be inferior and not worthy of living in their rigid society? The fact that Tom was taken away at all kind of spells that their society is pretty strict and devoid of human rights. Or maybe she was taken away to another lab to see if she could create more 'unusual' children for test subjects... But I am just guessing, nothing is officially said or shown so anyones guess is as good as mine. I wish we'd found out.

If you look at the images around the main screen which shows the mother´s file, you´ll see images of someone being cut open. I guess that´s her. I may be wrong, but it´s still a powerful image.
