Spoilers for Screwed Part 3: La Bomba

Spoiler

So I was explaining to one of my roommates about the different types of Scarrens after we watched this ep the other day, and a thought occured to me. We've been assuming, thus far, that the different types of Scarrens are a result of genetic engineering of some sort. But... now we know about the flower. According to Harvey, the Scarrens would have died out long ago if it wasn't for it and I got the impression that its forcing them to evolve.

So, since the different types of Scarrens are based on different classes, perhaps the amount of flower each class gets dictates its appearance as well as other attributes?

The warrior Scarrens look less evolved and are presumably not as intellegent. (Tiny eyes, smaller head)

The special-ops Scarrens (who we've seen now as high level guards) look somewhat more evolved and are more intellegent. (larger eyes and head, suited for more complex tasks)

The ruling class Scarrens look the most evolved and are the most intellegent. (near humanoid, very intellegent)

So the warrior Scarrens get less flower, the special-ops guys get more and the ruling guys get the most... which determines both their appearance and intellegence.

Just some thoughts...
