    Question: Altogether, how many rats of NIMH are there meant to be living in the rosebush? In the flashback, Nicodemus says that 20 rats were given injections, however, the animation would suggest there are more than that. There seem to be about 15 of them pushing the wheel alone. That's not counting Nicodemus, Jenner or Sullivan. It is plausible that Justin and Brutus are among those pushing(we can't see where Justin is). Are any of them supposed to be the same rats seen earlier in the council? The rat's seen here all seem much more robust than some of those who appeared in the council chamber. Are we meant to believe that ALL the rats living in the rosebush are present at the house raising?
