    Why didn't Eleanor teleport you at the end?

    I don't know if this is already a thread but at the end of BS2 eleanor is seen teleporting little sisters so why didn't she just teleport you to the lifeboat at the end of the game? Or teleport you anywhere for that matter? I know the answer is probably obvious but can someone help me out here?

    Did she teleport them? I thought they teleported themselves.

    She probably thought that Delta was able to run by himself.

    So his death was a miscalculation?

    No, it was the result of the final blast charges detonated by Sofia Lamb.

    Wasn't he going to die anyways? Since his bond was broken he was going to die anyways right?

    While I agree that you could say she had preperation time to teleport the Little Sisters in contrast to the ending where she was surprised by the Explosives, the ending is pretty lame. Also, after seeing all the other endings, I see only one ending where it matters whether Delta still lives by the end or not - the good one. But even then, how can she just "drain your experiences"?! Another thing that doesn't make sense.

    I’m assuming that she couldn't teleport you at all, either because she can't teleport with others (still don't know if she actually teleported the sisters or if the teleported themselves) or for some reason she couldn't teleport with Delta, perhaps because he was too big.
    If she could teleport you then she could have simply teleported you into the escape pod where lamb was.

    A lot of people think I meant teleporting you as soon as the bombs went off, but I meant the second delta made the lifeboat usable. Or when they got up the elevator.

    For the same reason that telling Jack to "Would you kindly be a free man and stop taking orders from people who say 'Would you kindly?'" wouldn't work.

    Well what can you expect from Eleonor? She's running with her ''father'' to a lifeboat and all of a sudden she sees there are bombs all over! Not having enough time to get to her father she teleports herself to safety. Although I agree it's not such a nice experience for Delta he already was dying because of the broken bond and (even though we can't hear him say anything) I guess he would've wanted Eleonor to be safe with the Little Sisters.

    It's just a dramatic ending and it isn't possible to judge Eleonor for not saving Delta, I mean, what would you have done?

    ...

    Or maybe Eleonor is just a big *coughcough* - well, you know.

    She turned around to teleport you but the charges went off before she could finish. I think she kinda teleported you because you end up outside the life boat.

    Yeah this might be true. It does look like she tries to get to you but the charges explode before she can. I guess we just don't know enough about how Big Sisters teleport and what they can take with them ...

    My guess is that she has to concentrate somewhat to transport more than herself. Not to take a huge cut at the logistics of transportation, but "...traveling through space ain't like dusting crops, boy." It must take more than split second thinking to transport other things.

    She wanted a good "lol" moment

    Eleanor couldn't make it in time to teleport Delta if you look at the cut scene both her and Delta are running as fast as they can Eleanor is ahead and stops right when she sees the bombs Delta was too far behind in order to make it to her. She had a split second to either teleport out hoping that Delta would survive or risk both of them dying. In order for you to teleport another person that person has to be touching you and there was no way that Eleanor could have made it to Delta in time. In the end she's what's important. Delta would have died or have gone crazy anyway, so it was up to Elanor to save the Little Sisters.
    I'm sure Elanor wanted to save Delta,but in the end what happened was the best possible outcome. It's sad but it had to happen that way.
