Why reward incompetence? )Spoilers)

Yeah, you really can't reconcile that. Of course, the bigger mistake is that those chips have almost zero range - you have to hold a wand right over them. They're for identification, not location.

I think you're trying to be funny. Anyway, look at it from this perspective. You fire someone for a pretty lame reason and then she still risks life and limb to come rescue you. That's someone you want to keep close to you.

Rebecca was far from incompetent. Suzanne just got off on nit-picking everything Rebecca did. Suzanne blamed Rebecca for errors that were not really errors on Rebecca's part - or even errors at all in some cases. She just liked to bitch out people. I suppose it made her feel more in control and powerful.

I think, Philo, you may be confusing a microchip with what Rodrigo had. He had the sort of thing you can put on your computer and track it with, a lojack was it called? Anyway, I think you should be able to use those sort of like a GPS.

I really didn't fault Rebecca for not having thought of that till later. I mean, I guess she should have, but maybe also she could have been forgiven on the grounds that she was upset about everything, and the dog had only had it for two days, etc. Maybe the script should have subtly hinted at its existence earlier, though, rather than whip it out at the end. Anything can be whipped out at any given time, but that doesn't make it fair. I also give Rebecca points for having gotten concerned so quickly, although that might have been built up better, too, by showing clips at the beginning of Suzanne waking her up every morning with nutty but comfortingly reliable phone calls. Maybe Rebecca could have been late because a phone call didn't come in. I'm rewriting the script here, lol. But a master of this is said to be Robert Towne; he puts forewarnings in his scripts.

Also, I had been expecting something at the end like Suzanne finally telling Rebecca she was her long-lost daughter or something. It was sad that that one girl had to die, and the only black one. A little discrimination? Anyway, overall good effort, imho.
