Spoilers & Speculation

WARNING - THIS PAGE CONTAINS PLOT AND CHARACTER REVEALS. PLEASE READ AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION!

All the details in this, and the following pages, has been drawn from intial script casting pages and may be subject to change. However, alot of what is contained 'feels' fairly accurate when looked at as a whole. Individual scenes and or lines of dialgoue may change or be exlcuded from the final aired Pilot.

The pages are divided into character information/background [here], secondly full-on plot reveals and speculation around this [here], and lastly bionic technical info for the new show [here]. Again, all 3 pages contain some major plot info!

Bionic technical info

Jaime has had both leg replaced along with an arm, right ear and right eye. She has had one eight of her blood cells replaced with nanocytes, tiny molecular machines.

Jaime also has increased healing abilities - sans Wolverine from the X-Men and Claire from Heroes - as when she wakes up in hospital the gashes and lacerations from the crash are now just pales lines of healing cuts and light bruising.

When first replaced, the Bionic limbs are transparent, beneath which the biomechanical machinery is visible. Jaime see her skin flash opaque, looking for an instant like normal skin. She is told this is the nanocytes adapting to mimic the colour, hair and configuration of her skin. In time they will look and feel like normal limbs, undistinguishable from the real thing.

Unlike on the original show there are no wires, metals or electronics. The structures within the limb mimic human bones, muscles and tissues, but the colours and shapes are different:
Bones are Black-silver Titanium Ceramics; Muscles are stark white, flexible, striated, connected by green tendons and ligaments, whipcord thin; Veins pulse in a network of pale blue-white "blood", tiny flows of mercury-like quicksilver race over everything, darting like lightning everywhere: bionic nerve impulses.

Bledsoe talks to Jaime about "one of the chips in your brain" implying there is more than one - additional 'control' chips may have been implanted in Jaime in addition to the basic bionic modifications. How many and what their full purpose is, is unknown. However bearing in the 'cyborgs' are regards as weapons and potential government property it is a safe bet to guess they would be used for tracking/monitoring purposes. They may also have some control purpose via pain/suggestion/urge. It may have communication capabilities as well as Wi-Fi to connect to the web/computer servers whilst the person is in the field.

One of the chips Jaime has/had was a 'combat chip', tied directly to her cerbal cortex. This allows scenarios to be downloaded to her brain so she can see, feel, even taste the combat experience. It can definitely simulate people [but is unlikey to create full-blown environments due to it's size/power] and once active draws upon her sub-conscious to and so can fully interact with her., basically creating holographic opponents, much like the X-Men's Danger Room or a Star Trek-style Holodeck although on a smaller scale.

When Jaime's Bionic limbs become torn, they leak blue-white blood.

Jaime can jump at least 25 feet into the air: she clears a 24-foot high perimieter fence, topped with razorwire, when she escapes the hospital/compound.

One description in the script for a POV shot has Jaime "running towards us like a Bionic Nike commercial"

The show will include sounds/visual effects for Jaime's bionics, including a Terminator-style scanner in her Bionic eye which will allow her to 'see' beneath/into objects in an x-ray/scanner style visual effect. Her eye also has a 'threat assessment' mode - when she see Jae Kim in an alley it flashes a Threat Assessment of 99.7% as it outlines a gun beneath his jacket!
