Brandi has said that she doesn’t like who she is when she has to really use her amazing mind. I think that here, in this flashback to the activation of the World Grid, she made a deal that would allow Something Else to use her mind instead, when things needed to be done that required it, so Brandi wouldn’t have to. I really don’t think that deal was a good idea, but it may have seemed like one at the time.
