LISTEN
The prisoner at the end of Prospect drives me crazy. Everything in this movie is so intentional. He's gotta be pink for a reason.
My theory is that he is meant to be the physical manifestation of the dust. The prisoner and Cee lock eyes as she's trying to escape with Ezra, and he lets them go.
In the original script, Ezra says "For if we hold that equivalent exchange persists in this space then we must give something of ourselves in order to build something new..."
Ezra lost his arm, Cee lost her father. These are the sacrifices they've made to build something new (their relationship, their life together).
The dust judged her and deemed her worthy of escaping, of surviving.

wyd when you're bleeding to death from a bullet to the abdomen and the sentient robot you created starts going off about how he "solved it" and is going to "get your consciousness out"

Chapter Summary:
Cee felt something bump against her arm. When she looked up, Ezra was holding out a rations bar. She opened her mouth, hesitated before she settled on exactly what she wanted to say.
“I’ve still got one left…”
“I know,” he softly replied. “Here.”
Still, she hesitated.
“Take it,” he tapped it against her arm.
“But, what about you?” she asked, even as she took the bar from him.
“I’m not hungry. The dust combined with our current altitude has banjaxed my appetite.”
“It what?” her lip curled in annoyance.
He smirked and shook his head. “You’ll have to wait until I get you a dictionary for that one.”
Cee rolled her eyes, mouth opening in a reluctant grin. Still, she tore the bar in half and held one side out to him. He glanced down at it dumbly, and she raised her eyebrows in warning.
“Take it,” she said, waving it at him. “Besides, I’m pretty sure ‘banjaxed’ isn’t a word, so that means it can’t actually affect your appetite.”
“Kevva, you just keep gettin’ funnier,” he stopped, cocking his hip and snatching the piece she was offering.
“Must be the dust and our current altitude,” she said around a faint grin.
“You know what, I believe you’re starting to test my patience, girl.” It was a load of shit. He was grinning ear to ear, and, alarmingly, he looked proud.
