In any standard plot, letting your clone know of your existence is a way to motivate it to kill you.
Why this is so eludes me. Why would your copy want to kill you, when the “copy” that is you wanted to create another?
But, supposedly, it wants to replace you and become the real person; in the end there can be only one.
It’s nonsense, of course, because writers don’t understand people or even semi-cardboard people like clones. If writers understood people, they wouldn’t be writers, they would be lovers.
Oh pshaw. I want to know how the cloner figured out how to stop the sped up growth process so that the clone came out at the same age as the cloner.
“We seek the original.”
Clones suffer from an inferiority complex. It all started from a rumor that a bad fuser made inferior copies.
It’s all rubbish, of course, because the quality of the copy is in the CCD, not in the fuser, and all the CCDs come from the same factory in China.
