I like the latter because we have just seen the video of Anthony Hopkins' partner and he said he died. Given how long ago that must have been and when they were developing the original technology it would make sense for there to have been an accident and somebody was able to transfer Anthony Hopkins' consciousness to a host. I like the idea of that but the only snag I have in terms of plausibility and realism is that although the humans might let that happen, they wouldn't allow a host to be in such a position of authority.
