when the narrator decides not to kill max he says max has finally made an unselfish act. what is he talking about exactly? you never see monster max do anything of this sort
He prefers that people get Sybil out of Max so she can have her baby, instead of removing his huge malignant tumor, effectively sacrificing his life to save her and the baby

He in a way saved sybil's, her baby's, sam's, paiperwaite's, and norritngton's lives by telling them to save sybil, if he hadnt done anything, they would still have been arguing when the nuke came to kill max.

Sam's in-game notebook says they're individual aspects of Max's personality. At least Sam doesn't consider them to be the real Max -- on their own. But the "Save Sybil" sequence is the only time (other than their general goal of putting the populace to sleep) that all the Max spores share and communicate the same sentiment. For all intents and purposes, the only aspect of Max's essence this decision seems to leave out of the loop is his Superego.
So yeah, I think it counts as Max "as a whole" deciding to save Sybil under his own willpower.
Also it flashed on the tv screen

Max's Selfless act may not be as selfless as you thing though, remember in season two he wanted to see what sort of unholy abomination could come out of Sybil and Abe's relationship. Sure he didn't get to see it, but he made sure that he'd be able to had he survived.

Wouldn't it be funny when Max blew up that his head fell down and plopped right at Sam's feet, and his head had its tongue hanging out?

It would be awesome in episode 3 if Sam put his Items in Max's empty skull.

Yeah, and every time you put something in Max's head, Sam gave a huge laugh and screamed "MAX IS DEAD MAX IS DEAD! HAW HAW HAW!"
With tears streaming from his wide, staring eyes. And he NEVER. STOPPED. SMILING.
He even keeps his Capri Sun chilled in Max's brain cavity, and laps it out of there whenever he gets thirsty. Great for desert trips.
........Oh my god, this thread.
