Androids

I thought that the climax of Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep was interesting.  More information about each of the characters is unveiled along with some of their feelings.  Rick goes through a lot and is having trouble finding meaning in not just his job but himself.  Isidore has to deal with the androids and his feelings towards different groups.  I liked how John and Rick faced a lot of different things and then figured out how to deal with their problems.  I thought it was interesting that Rick overcame his dislike of killing the androids and instead decided to go after even more than he was originally supposed to.  It was good to see Rick's true self and that he doesn't like to be messed with at all.  It was also interesting to see some of John's reactions.  Since he has a low IQ he interacts with the world differently and that was a good perspective to see with everything that was going on.  He just wanted to be with others and that is why he embraced the androids, no matter their own feelings towards him.  I liked that he had to deal with the androids, the spider, and his new revelations on Mercer and Buster all at once.  Another cool thing was how Rachael messed with Rick and then how she killed his new goat.  She caused him to show his true self and I think that will be the end of her because of it.  I feel like Rick should have never trusted her in the first place but he let his feelings for her take him over.  Overall it was a good climax that I think will lead to a great ending.
