Which he is especially since he is killing his own kind (my theory is that he was one of the six that was captured and reprogrammed to hunt the rest or just another replicant - the clues are throughout the movie). Like Rachel he is not sure he is a replicant, but he suspects it.


By the way I was uncomfortable with that scene as well. I recently watched Bladerunner with my 16 year old daughter. If they made the movie today, I think they would have left the scene out.


Check out Charlton Heston in Soylent Green. Pretty much the same thing. I remember seeing it as a kid and being disturbed by it then. Still am.
