Probably true. But I think it would be extremely powerful if one of them did because that shows that even though they have little humanity left, that is enough to bring them back. Or maybe they would reason that they would be terminated once the Combine are done ... endless list of reasons :)...

I am not sure if anybody suggested this before, but wouldn't it be cool if somehow an overwatch soldier becomes your ally in Ep3? Maybe the guy still has some humanity left in him, or he might witness a really depressing event that triggers his humanity back or maybe he simply reasons that he...
