Scouters are a form of power-knowledge that constitutes the subject as quantified extension by juxtaposing a scalar quantity to its power level, in effect creating power as numerical, creating the subject as a function of number. The apparatus for measuring the actualization of potential becomes the essence of potential itself, and chi becomes a matter for engineers and calculators. The gaze of the scouter, which covers the eye, becomes the true, the scientific eye, the gaze which one must take into oneself as one's own if one wishes to serve in Frieza's army. In our scientific age we have forgotten how to train.
