That Jasmine realised she made a mistake in taking away everyones free will at the end? I mean, when she's asking everyone what they want to know such as the meaning of life and stuff, all they can think and talk about is her, she seemed a little taken back. Any thoughts?
 
I think, if all you hear about is ONE thing, you'll get tired of it. even though it's all about you. It gets boring
 
Bah.. she loved it. I think she was taken aback due to the ease of it.
 
I think she just 'accepted' that as the prize to a better world. I haven't seen these episodes in a while, so I'm not quite sure, but wasn't this also basically what she told Angel before he kicked her ass?
 
I don't think she would ever admit she was wrong. I mean once she realized she couldn't 'save' the world she would rather it be destroyed.
 
I dont think she wanted the world to be peaceful as her main agenda. She wanted to be worshiped and treated like a god; idolized. SHE came first, not supposed "world peace" and at the expense of others that she "ate" ... she was self-seeking in that way.
 
Thanks for the replies guys! I also have another question and I hope to god its true because I feel strongly about it. Do you think that Connor realised it wasn't really Cordy he fell in love with but Jasmine? That might explain his suicidal tendancies in the season finale.

i think you should start a whole new thread for that question!
Of course Connor loved Cordy; it's crazy to suggest it was anything else. He was suicidal because he saw what his love of her (cordy) caused.

IMO, he loved both of them. He clearly loved Jasmine, too - both as his "daughter" and as the one to provide him with a temporary modicum of peace/clarity of mind he never knew before.

Both these loves (Cordy & Jaz) are disappointed on many levels at the end of the season - not only the "what became of it" level you mentioned, but also...

- the woman he loves is permanently comatose now
- his love affair was never "really" with her, but with Jaz puppetteering her
- all his existence, he's just been a tool of either Holtz (yet another disappointed love, there) or Jaz
- the world of bliss Jaz offers does not work for him => if even she can't make him happy, happiness is forever impossible to reach
- by killing Jaz, he ruined the best chance mankind had for blissful world peace

It doesn't take much thinking to understand why suicide had to seem a damn good idea to him after all that. If this doesn't make one go "f*** the world, I'm outta here", pretty much nothing will.
