quote me....
01. the jockeys all died long ago at the hands of thier creations ( parasitic organisms ) who control thier former masters
02. the sjs were in the proccess of launching a full scale attack onto earth , ending the experiment ( but one of them unleashes the parasites onto his own race saving us )( the same one who secretly gave us fire )
03. david develops a deep obsession with the ''gods'' , spending to much time in the sj chair, playing with 'fire' , ends up mutating into a android biomech sj who decides to complete the sjs mission to destroy earth
just some highly speculative ideas ..........
