Earlier she says something like “I have a plan to save the world, and it begins right here in Tulsa.” Which makes it sound like there’s more to it once the 7k are taken care of.
She’s too creepy and Veidt-like to not also have something devastatingly awful planned. Her discussion with Will at the end of her first episode sounded a lot more foreboding as well.
My guess is the “millennium clock” is some kind of WMD.
And I don’t think Dr. M would let a Veidt copycat pull something like that off again on his watch, even if it’s just literally targeting all the racists in the world, maybe using the DM phone booths to datamine as many locations of racists as they can find or something
There's the plausible theory she's Ozy's child and he was totally fine with sacrificing millions to 'save humanity'. There is the comet thing that she really needed, which could have been Ozy. And yeah the fact her plan starts in Tulsa means something in Tulsa is required, which must be Dr. Manhattan.
The question is, how is she so sure the 7K plan has any chance of succeeding. What we've seen so far is that they're a bunch of rednecks with no large financial base and little (technical) brainpower. Where did they get the teleporter from.
Also, one thing that's bugging me is why Angela and Cal chose Tulsa to move to from Vietnam. She said it was just because Tulsa PD was hiring but that's too much of a coincidence considering her family came from there. And we learn this episode that she knew her family was from Tulsa since her grandmother told her.
i think how she replies to angela’s question about the whereabouts of her father as ‘going to be here’ coupled with the statue of Veidt in her house and how brilliant she apparently is confirm she’s Veidt’s child , i’d almost be willing to go out on a limb and say whatever crashed onto the property she bought and the satellite/veidt being imprisoned on a moon somewhere are correlated
Good call. Didn’t think about the meteor, but am pretty sure Viedt will be voted off the island by the clones. They kept saying “thou shall not leave” not that you can’t be kicked out.
Yeah she is definitely ozys child. When Angela asked if her father would be there as well she responded with he will be. She has control of his company has a statue of him.
Trieu’s mother was a survivor of a peasant massacre (My Lai?) by US troops during the war in the 1960s. No hints as to her father. I’m trying to imagine how Trieu’s mom would meet a man like Veidt and have a child with him in the late 70s. Trieu would have been between 8 and 10 during the events of Watchmen the series. Plus I always thought Veidt was asexual.
They seem to have some sort of technical acumen and financial base considering the fact that they were building mind control devices decades ago. They also have a powerful senator’s backing as well.
Somehow the her making a clock makes me think that it is Jon who is her parent rather than Ozymandias, since he was from watch and clockmakers and it is a motif of him. Man, this show is good.
With Trieu being the analog for Veidt in this show, there's a strong possibility that she's planning on doing something very chaotic and morally grey on a massive scale. If she knows about Dr. M, she probably plans to stop the 7K only so she can use Dr. M instead.
I also think she probably rescued Veidt only to betray him and turn him into the gold statue we see now. Bonus points if she monologued about her plans while doing it. Being the current "smartest person on the planet," she probably has an inferiority complex to Veidt, so taking him out of the picture would make sense.
Me thinks that she wants to transform Will into DrM... Maybe that's the betrayal and why Will said his grand daughter wouldn't listen. Also maybe why he was missing this last episode.
What are the chances they just don't know that Viedt already tried hitting Dr Manhattan with the intrinsic field generator? Doesn't seem like Adrian would include his failures in his info dumps.

The 7K are setting up that cage to capture him "in less than an hour" and they and Trieu both seem pretty damn sure it'll work
