Okay okay I got this.
Spare Theron, whatevs story moves forward.
You decide to kill him. “But wait!” Someone most likely Lana says. He is valuable let’s keep him prisoner. Insert illusion of choice and Theron lives, story moves forward.
And theeeennnn, a crisis! “You need me, Commander! I can help you! Let me make this right.” Insert illusion of choice. Story moves forward.
No matter what we at the player want, if the character is necessary in the story the writers are telling, they will live.
