rey is gay period, i think the anime wouldn't say he's gay officially, but u get the point. i dont know what are his motives. but he seems like a bad guy, i dunno how he got the pictures of athrun, kira and co. talking. i dout they will mention anything about Rey, he's like GIL's puppet. i dont think GIL knows anything much sense the old mask dude was his mentor. i dout he know anything about war, or even fought in a actual war.

Capt. Gladys is probably in on whatever Gil is scheming. Or is at least unaware enough and still a slave to his cock to be a proper puppet for him. And she also has to REPORT TO HIM as Chairman, so that's how Rey got the pictures.

Oh, and Rey is so gay. WTF!?? He loucss likea girlzz withh loong hare n femminene face N....

Oh my god, almost EVERY MALE IN DESTINY LOOKS LIKE A CHICK YOU RETARD!!! (Seriously, its gotta be 1 normal looking dude to every feminine looking one.... and the feminine ones get a buttload of screentime (Athrun...) And when I say this, I don't mean that you can mistake them for females in teh show always. I merely mean that they have lots of femine characteristics like longish hair hanging in their face, no sign of Adam's apple, no facial hair etc.

I seriously don't think we know enough to determine Rey's sexual orientation. Besides, gay bad guys can be downright cool sometimes because they can totally creep out the main male character (Last Exile has a perfect example of this) or just be hilariously flaming (Fred Lowe, not an enemy, in Outlaw Star)

Back on topic... I concur that Rey is almost definetley Rau's clone, and was probably meant to carry on Rau's maniacal legacy. I have high hopes of his evilness moving him into the role of main villain by the series end and enjoy his silent nature, total respect for military authority and regulations, unwavering confidence in Gil, and select answers to questions and telling Athrun that he is an idiot.

I like the idea of Rey manipulating Shinn for Gil. Rey is certainyl smart enough and his relationship to Shinn puts him in a good spot to control and direct his actions.

Pink seatbelts are the source of my power!

Hey. I didn't notice the pink seatbelts.

Ok here's another thing to ponder. After the end of this episode, when Shinn and Lunamaria are crying (Very, VERY powerful scene) Rey just watches and walks away. You think that it's possible that he's gonna have a change of heart. I would hate for him to turn into this heartless bastard like Raww was. Personally, I believe he'll start to question himself...if he has any warmth in his heart.

Also, anyone notice that when a main character's gundam is destroyed, the cockpit is almost ALWAYS intact? At least in Destiny...Only exception that I can remember off the top of my head is Heine.
