![]() ![]() Princess hears this and demands that he take over as the hospital doctor to make up for his actions. He apologizes to her unconscious self, admitting that the reason she is in the hospital is because of his actions. While Grass-Finn mopes about, the ‘main’ Finn goes to the hospital to check on Susan Strong. Who is he exactly? Where did he come from? Why did all of this happen? This is understandable, given the existential issues that are at play here. Eventually he accepts the fact that he is Other Finn, and as such he falls into a deep depression. There’s something ‘off’ about him, and he cannot seem to do anything right. The two merged into one being, resulting in Grass-Finn coming into existence.Īt first, Grass-Finn thinks that he is Finn himself, but he quickly realizes that this is not the case. We the audience are treated to an artful depiction of how this entity came to be: when the grass-sword pierced the Finn-Sword, the grass-curse (depicted as a cute little Cthulhu-spider-demon) that has been attached to Finn since the season 5 episode “Blade of Grass” ensnared the alternate reality Finn that (for lack of a better term) inhabited the Finn-Sword. ![]() What what if two people are created who, in terms of material, are different, but in terms of essence are the same? This is the issue that plagues Finn in “Two Swords”/”Do No Harm”.įollowing the events of the season 7 finale “Reboot”, Finn discovers that his grass-arm and his Finn-Sword have combined to form a new entity: Grass-Finn. I truly believe that if two individuals were born with the same material makeup, their essences would be different, and hence they would be different people. Call it what you want (the je ne sais pas, the soul, the life-force), but I prefer “essence”. It would argue that this is unlikely, given that each of us seems to have some part of our very being that does not just simply reduce to the atoms out of which we are made (of course, this is a huge philosophical point of contention). ![]() What were to happen if two twins were born, who, by circumstance, had all the same types of atoms in all the same types of places? In other words, what would happen if two individuals were born that were literally identical? Would those two people really just be one? Here you have two people who, in terms of physical substance, are as identical as possible. When I was a kid, I always found the topic of identical twins to be fascinating.
