He probably would look deformed from the fire at least...which makes me think it probably isn't him in the trailer but still, we'll see the Clone. And AR:A, you said earlier that the note in the video reminds you of the quote but that quote was directed at Alex, so that couldn't be it.

Well, it's directed at "Alex" but since the clone looks like Alex, maybe that's what he goes by. So it could be Scorpia talking to him. But I was mainly just saying they're similar.

may be its Alex in the cell.........maybe he is framed for killing someone in the mi6 and is put in prison by them.... then scorpia offers to help him get out but it is actually a trap and then they expose him as an agent (their cleverest plan so far)so as to bring down the British gov
i just cant think who the villain is
didn't the clone die at the end of the book?

All the villains LOOK like they died, but that's the whole point, someone really didn't, just seemed it.

Well the clone's death was extra suspicious. He just fell off of the roof basically and was never mentioned again. People survive falls like that all the time.

But he fell into a fire.. don't know how many survive that. Someone told me that Clones are made of a type of material or something that is highly flammable? Not sure if there is any truth to this but if there is, that would kin of be a flawe d logic on AH's part.

hahahaha clones are still people (or cats or whatever was cloned) They're just as flammable as we are. They don't have some kind of genetically mutated skin or anything, they just have the same DNA.
And people survive fires all the time.

I agree. But I don't think the clone would be brought back by popular demand...

They survive fires but not falling two stories into a fire and most likely breaking something in the process. Don't think there's too many people anyone could point out that have done that. And they might be just as flammable, but they are not as identical as people think. They don't even have the same fingerprints as the original. Plus they're made in labs...with certain materials that could easily be flammable. Not exactly sure what Clones are madee of. DNA of course but obviously not just that.

haha clones are made in labs in the sense of how the DNA is an exact replication, but other than that, they still grow inside the womb and all. They don't just jump into a machine and bam there's a fully grown exact replica. They're still made with normal tissues and everything because they grew just like a normal person. It's just the 'fertilization' process that's weird.
And as for the fire, It's not like when there's a fire it takes up every inch of the space in a room. Fires generally stay on the walls, ceiling, and flammable debris that's in the way (i.e. a desk or something) so he could easily have landed in a space that wasn't on fire, and jumped out the window or something.

ALso depends if they make a perfect clone or not. They're only perfectly the same as humans if they do it 100% properly which is obviously extremely hard to do. Makes you wonder what they do with all the "test" copies when they turn out wrong.
And actually yeah, it doesn't specifically say he fell into the fire but it does say the flames were closing in on him as Alex watched so there is a chance he could have gotten up before they did, however unlikely it seems.

i think that makes it pretty obvious that the clones gonna reappear in Sr
i don't know much about clones (except that the first one was a sheep
)but theres a high possibility that he may have survived

I think the other enemy is probably a more formidable one..

Actually when you think about it, the CLone would be the worst enemy out of all of the books. If he's exactly like Alex, (which I'm not sure of, but they look alike anyways) then that's going to be extremely tough to beat. Alex can pretty much beat anyone with his smarts and skills and if the Clone has those same smarts and skills, then that is just going to be a tough, tough fight. And I'm sure you've heard the saying, youre your own worst enemy? AH could have been playing around with that.
