This show is constantly on my mind— Each character is so well written and overall it’s really fun to rewatch >:33
I don’t know if someone already pointed this out but….
While going back and watching an episode from Generator Rex “String Theory” I noticed that in this scene where Noah is looking for clues or hints, there’s a portrait showing Peter Meechum with other scientists in the portrait and there’s chance that maybe those scientists are Van Kleiss/Casear/ and Rrylander.
So yeah… That all I have to say😗

“So let me get this straight… just so we got this whole thing clear and laid out you’re not an EVO that might’ve been transferred to some dimension or one we missed after me and my friends cured the entire world… but you’re a man… well you’re probably 3 years older than me who was bitten by a radioactive spider and your some sort of Cross-Species Human mutate and you call yourself… The Human Spider?”
“Well that was one of the names I had working on but Spider-Man sounded right.”
“This is New York but not my New York”
“Everything’s different.”
“Midtown High, ESU, and Queens and Forest Hills are all there but not everything else that I know. Nobody i knew who is gonna be able to help me and a few of my craziest and worst enemies get back home.”
“Come on. How many are we talking here?”
“Possibly six.”
“HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!”
“Better make that 13.”
“So what do say?”
“Hello wackos. Now thrill us!”
THE BIGGEST CROSSOVER YOU ALL NEVER THOUGHT POSSIBLE IS COMING!
GENERATOR REX | SPIDER-MAN: The Ultimate Spin
The Invisible Strings
The episode String Theory lives up to its name, as on first glance it seems a good episode with a question about what you’re really fighting for, but the fact that it’s an episode to easily overlook on first glance is the first sign it lives up to its name.
We don’t know that Meechum worked on the Nanite Project; we don’t know that he knew Van Kleiss previously; and don’t know that he knew Rex’s parents. All of these interconnected strings are thinly veiled within the episode.
When Rex asks Knight about Meechum as a person, Knight brushes it off and told him he knew everything about him from the briefings. At first it acts as the though how the writers want us to perceive White—a cynical, pragmatic government official that believes a handful of lives are a worthy sacrifice to save the rest of humanity. Then it isn’t until season three do we realize that White knew more than what he was letting on. Which adds to the possibility of how much the Consortium told him after he became the Nanite free, but we didn’t question it because the writers were focused on making White come off as hate-able or moral grey as possible. Then it begs the question of whether or not he knew or found reports of Rex’s parents or did Consortium write that out after they deduced that they caused the Nanite Event? This episode on rewatch makes you ask these types of questions.
Now onto Meechum. At first, he comes off as victim/one off antagonist for the villain of the week episode. Again, we weren’t meant to question any further. He’s a man who was threatened by Van Kleiss because he was holding his daughter hostages. A stressed father who wants his daughter back it isn’t until season three episode Mind Game that it’s revealed that he was a part of the original team. Even by his personality and general appearance, you can definitely tell Meechum was a pushover when it came to what they should do with the Nanites. We know that Van Kleiss forced him to do the attack on Manhattan, so he had to know already that Meechum was a pushover. It also explains why Providence wasn’t after him or initially any of previous scientists unless they caused trouble—i.e. Dr. Rylander.
I find that interesting in the way Providence/the Consortium views the members of Nanite Project. Rylander? Outright named to be apart of the project in Dark Passage. The Salazars? They assumed they were dead and didn’t say anything, and didn’t know about the son or thought Rex was unimportant. Van Kleiss? They initially thought he may have died, but now he’s a leader of his country and they now only choose to keep an eye on him should he cause trouble. Which he did. Now Meechum? Meechum for all we know could have been given hush money and the promise of his daughter’s safety of never talking about the Nanite Project. Everything about him screams meek, nervous and “I’m a pushover” in his introduction episode, and it again establishes why he’s easy to look over compared to all the others.
He’s a man who believed that those stronger and authoritative were better than him, than to take control of his own life. All it took was one boy, that he may or may not recognize, that he is a person no matter what. So when we see him again in season three, he walks and talks with a different attitude…a more confident attitude because Rex gave him a paradigm shift. He openly questions the Consortium and doing the restart of the Nanite project, but he’s willing to cooperate if that’s what everyone else wants or if his daughter is in danger.
As for Rex saving his daughter, it adds an interesting layer of if Meechum knew Rex. Perhaps not as he didn’t seem close to the Salazars as Van Kleiss or Rylander were, but the irony of Rex saving his daughter—even in that point of the plot—he doesn’t remember his parents or brother but he was the one to save Meechum’s daughter is touching when you look back on it.
As for Van Kleiss and what he wanted from him, I am uncertain but it may possibly have to do with the Meta Nanite or maybe it doesn’t, and that Kleiss really wanted him to wreck havoc on the world. If it has something to do with the Meta Nanite, it could explain why he never told Six, Holiday or Rex because he was possibly afraid that the Consortium is listening. I find that it’s interesting that after a rewatch, it was Van Kleiss who found him of all people. What we assume is basic villain stuff becomes layered with questions of it is it more of basic villain stuff after doing rewatches. Consortium was not too thrilled to hear that two former Nanite scientists were working together with one leading an army of EVOs while another turns EVO. They were probably quick to agree to White’s idea of the safe house. Which would also set up for easy access later like White said.
String Theory lives up to it name of having thinly veiled lines connecting characters. This episode may be considered meh on first viewing, but it becomes the most important episode on rewatches.
I hope you enjoyed my blurb. Have a nice day/evening.
*pre-event*
Rylander: Have you seen Van Kleiss?
Meechum: I’m not liking the tone there, what happened? Did he die?
Caesar: Why is your first thought he died?
Meechum: I don’t... He seems like a dying type.
Rylander: Not even going to ask, but it is related, somehow. He coughed a few times in the hall and--
Caesar: Oh, so he is dying?
maybe it's just me but peter meechum is kind of a babygirl ngl...............
Meechum: I want to apologize. I'm really sorry I was a baby.
Rafael: That's ridiculous, Peter. We were all babies once.
Rafael: Oh, you mean today.
