Board Thread:Sly Cooper series discussion/@comment-4013721-20150112174007/@comment-1845428-20150310043033

When I beat Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus back in 2002, I thought that I heard Clockwerk saying stuff like "flowers" and "be together" during the final phase of his boss fight.

Turns out I was wrong. Well, he does say "flowers", but he says "feet together". This is either for comedic effect (something along the lines of "his body and brain are degrading, so he's going insane") or because his auto-regeneration systems are working and he is putting his body back together, though that doesn't really explain the "flowers".

Anyway, since I thought he said "be together", this planted an idea in me that Clockwerk was in love a long time ago, and the first Cooper he met (presumably Slytunkhamen) stole this love from him, setting him on a dark path of destruction and murder. Not because he wanted to prove that he was the best thief, but to get revenge.
