Combat query
I was watching Combat again last night (my DVD's have only just arrived, growl), and I saw, or thought I saw, something odd.
When the muppet who had been running the fight club thing stepped into the cage at the end of the episode, Jack was pointing his gun at the Weevil. Now, it may have been my overactive imagination, but it looked to me like he lowered his gun, the Weevil stayed where it was watching Jack as well as the bloke. It didn't move until Jack inclined his head slightly in the bloke's direction, either instructing it, or giving it permission, to attack. Then when the camera cut back to Jack's face, there was this look of, kind of, satisfaction.
Is there a possibility that Jack is better able to communicate with/understand Weevils on the telepathic or emapthic wavelength they seem to posess than he wants to let on to his team?
It wouldn't be the first time, would it?

no subject
- she saw the fairies out of the corner of her eye, when others didn't. I kinda got the impression that Jack had seen them previously
- she could perceive Eugene's ghost, though not clearly. He had a crush on her, he was totally focused on her, maybe that was more him than her.
- she looks like Gwyneth. Pass, never saw that episode,
- she makes good intuitive guesses, e.g., that Jack knew Estelle in 1944. She saw the photo's in Estelle's living room, and already doubted that it was Jack's father. Him upset over Estelle just confirmed her suspicions.
On an entirely unconnected note, I have no idea why my reply box/text have shrunk so much. Anyone have a clue how I can fix it?
