So, I was thinking about the Hitler thing when something dawned on me. Now, we know that the director was part turtle and apparently _ years old. We also know this is in Germany, and she couldn't have been made perfectly on the first try- there were others before her. There are rumors about the Nazi's doing experiments such as these from the very beginning, and they wanted the "perfect person." Which is what the "white coats" want in the series.
So what if this whole this is Nazi scientists living on and performing more experiments?
Think about it! The US suspected that Hitler escaped, as the skeleton they found burned and thought was Hitler turned out to be a FEMALE SKELETON, THEREFORE NOT HITLER.
They thought he had escaped to another country because they found mazes of tunnels underneath Germany, and found Nazi coins in the rainforest.
So it's possible that Hitler started MORE EXPERIMENTS WHICH LED TO MAX AND THE FLOCK LATER DOWN THE LINE
AT LEAST FOR THE STORY, NOT IN REAL LIFE OBVIOUSLY.
In World War Two, a nazi scientist named Dr. Mengle did the atrocious experiments of making women breed with other animals. Luckily, nothing ever lived. The atrocities died.
But perhaps in this stories timeline, they hadn't. Maybe one survived, or someone found his research papers and continued his work?
Or maybe James just likes World War Two history or something, I don't know. This probably wasn't intentional, but whatever, it happened.
*x-files theme plays* just something to think about, folks.
