I haven't seen this posted, but I got a distinct vibe concerning the relationship between General Torchwood and Roman Torchwick. 1. Similarity of names indicates possible familial ties. 2. Gen. Torchwood tells Torchwick that the council gave him custody of torchwick for as long as he sees fit. Custody? You mean like maybe Torchwood is his father or uncle? 3. Torchwick's mention of "Ooooh look, she sent the kids again... this is turning out just like the divorce" obviously referring to Cinder insinuates a possible past relationship between the two. Torchwick seems to me to be the black sheep of the family... the one who's always in trouble, always in Jail. After being captured, Gen Torchwood sends the guards away while is talks to Roman. Why? Could he be afraid of the family ties coming out? I don't think Torchwood is bad per se', but while his intentions may be nominally good, it would appear they skirt a moral line which is why Glynda doesn't like him very much. Then too, there are subtle hints in the music as well... "Are we heroes, keeping peace? Or are we weapons pointed at the enemy so someone else can claim a victory?" Very telling line about the fight between the military and the academies on the best way to protect the kingdoms...
