It would be awesome to see Summer play some more diverse roles. She's gotten awfully stereotyped :(
Quick note, I wasn't trying to erase the circumstances around the injury; I should have clarrified that. But like I said to missmimsical, why not make Echo feel all of those overwhelming emotions (if the betrayal and fear and hurt were really the core issue) instead of giving her a physical disability? Overcoming the emotional betrayal could have been an equally compelling storyline - imagine the double panic and fear she might have experienced when the senator's assassin status was activated. It also says something that the most lingering part of the imprinted memory was the injury to Bennett's arm. That was a choice.
Instead, we get disability as a an easy out for the writers.
