Yes, but this boy-in-a-vent could be a very big deal! We could be looking at a manifestation of Shepard's inner uncertainty / repressed childhood!

...or, y'know, it could just be some random kid in a vent... =]

Or the reapers trying to break Shepard's will for indoctrination

Or most likely is just some kid that has nothing to do with anything whatsoever just more npc fodder the reapers.

I saw the boy as an attempt to induce fear in the player. A boy so scared that he won't come out of the vent and then when Shepard looks away then back again he's gone taken by some husk or some other mutation.

I seriously doubt a husk took the boy in like half a second without making a single noise

Gosh, there is actually a civilian population on Earth? When did that happen???? I thought Earth was some sort of massive judicial planet used only for show trials and alien invasions...

Or sometimes a kid in a vent is just a kid in a vent. Sheesh (and a homage to Alien)

 I personally think he's just a boy hiding in the vent -- to represent who Shepard is trying to protect, that kind of thing. He could have just hidden around the corner when Shepard looked away. 

It would be really interesting if it turned out to be something more than that, though. Maybe it'll just be something you get to interpret however you want.

If it is just a boy though, they ought to have more kids running about. It would also be neat to see him alive and well at the end, after earth is reclaimed

I'm reminded of Manuel on Eden Prime, spouting hopelessness but sounding eerily prophetic.

He could be there just to add an emotional moment, I mena lets face it the kid kid is probably not gonna make it if he stays on Earth, and help people understand what they are fighting for.

BTW, you realize that is probably the first kid in ME series? But I hope it is the first and last one we saw in ME3, I don't want children in my sci-fi.

Seemed like a random soft moment for Shepard... if he's 'losing it' though, that'd be interesting too

You'd think 2 days unconcious on Project base would have some effect on him, wonder if indoctrination is slowly catching up to him.

The kid exists for one and only reason: Bioware wants to show players youth&innocence they need to protect from big bad machines.
No indoctrination, no conspiration theories, it is just a kid in a vent to remind Shepard what he is fighting for.

The Mysterious boy is obviously Shephards conscience creating an image of him as a child.

Telling him that no matter how many people he wants to save people will die.

I bet if your Fem Shep in this scene it is a scared little girl as well.

Bioware could check your skin and hairstyles to make an image as Shephard as a child the same way Dragon Age 2 had the family system for making what your family looked like.


Exactly.
Shep - "Take my hand"
Boy - "You can't help me"

It's definitely Sheps mind playin tricks on him.
