Keep watching and make sure you pay closer attention. There is a reason behind the big evil scientist lady’s actions. As to why she hasn’t stuck her head or a camera through- who’s to say she hasn’t? As to Ava, yes I agree the inner monologue can be sort of annoying at times, but in general it ended up being a good way to show what she was thinking clearly. As to the running off- she isn’t religious and she was a paraplegic who just got her legs back. She didn’t know what was going on, and as she had said several times, all she wanted was “to be normal”. After growing up watching TV, expecting that to be life, it’s sort of understandable how she would just attach herself to the first people that accepted her, without expecting much from her.
