The ending to The Outer Limits episode Quality of Mercy bugs me.

Post Body

The entire episode Bree is telling Robert Patrick that she is being experimented on and being turned into the aliens they are at war with. At the end of the episode, before she is fully alien, Robert Patrick reveals that Earth has reinforcement ships on the way. We then find out that Bree was actually one of the aliens all along and now she's going to tell the rest.
If he knew at the beginning she was being turned into an alien he never should have revealed that information at all. She was just a lowly cadet. Thanks Robert Patrick. You couldn't keep your mouth shut and now Earth is doomed.
