Re: Taylor hearing better through her bugs while on drugs, I have a different theory- When Taylor was knocked unconscious from Bakuda’s bomb, her bugs kept doing what they were told to do before she passed out, namely surrounding her so the doctor had to wake her up to send the swarm away. She was ALSO trying to hear Grue, but the impact messed with her head and she couldn’t understand him. I think her power was trying to comprehend speech the whole time she was out, which is why it did so well.
Oooh. This is an interesting interpretation – I like it!
