*Morbius' globe head falls apart when he tumbles over the cliff edge, and the camera bounces. ''He's just been through a fight and is falling off a cliff. He's entitled to a structural defect after that. The camera bounce can simply be indicative of the dramatic nature of his falling.'' | *Morbius' globe head falls apart when he tumbles over the cliff edge, and the camera bounces.

*Why doesn't Solon just put the brain into the Doctor's head? ''Because Solon wanted to give Morbius various other biological advantages in his new body. However, a simple transplant would have likely given Morbius the ability to regenerate again, so Solon's decision is still suspect. Solon does not know how many bodies the Doctor has left and he probably does not want to risk the possiblity that he is on his last. Furthermore, Solon is a deranged egotist with a perverse artistic streak, who expresses great pleasure at the notion of "creating" Morbius anew. Building a new, albeit hideous body, would be a far more effective way for him to demonstrate his full range of surgical expertise and (twisted) creativity.'' | *Why doesn't Solon just put the brain into the Doctor's head?
