Not if these people were the ones that allowed him to go on with his
experiments, which were all he had left after Mrs katsuragi divorced. And I say
again, thay may have known what the yhad been made into believing, maybe just
enough to start a process they wouldn't be able to control.

To know if it happened by sheer contact or by their inabilty to control the
situation has a consequence on the probability that they were bound to loose it
before they started or not.

Why not yours? (wait, it's rethoric, see below)

Yet any other people who speak Japanese I've met, after watching it are
convinced that the pause Mitsuishi Kotono puts in the sentence turns the meaninh
otherwise, and that said pause grants for one meaning only *in the show*, no
matter what was written anywhere else.

No it is not. You said yourself you inquired people about this and they agreedm
yet not you nor me can present a bunch of japanese guys who watched the movie
when it was aired and were convinced of either version, so neither of us has a
definite proof, therefore the ambiguity stands. I do not mean to say that you're
wrong, I cannot because I don't have the proper knowledge, but your version
doesn't look all that convincing. Completely different is the part about the
Lance though. If the subject of the sentence is unambiguously the Lance, then it
cannot be otherwise.
