Perhaps b/c his body was not as exposed to the gas as the Chancellor's was? Besides, the Scientist died mostly from exhaustion and draining his soul out, not getting poisoned by gas.

The mother DID seem to have a bit of a receding hair line, and the child was practically bald, but you could see strands of hair.
Perhaps since the Scientist was above ground, he managed to avoid poisoning, if the gas was too heavy to go very high until it dissipated a bit (and then may have been too weak to kill him outright) leaning his hair intact while the Chancellor, who ALREADY had a... very high hair line, lost it.
Or maybe there is another reason, I don't know.

I think it's a random cadaver. I wouldn't think the Chancellor would be on the battleground, since he's like their leader.

I like the idea of him getting killed in the battlefield... in the thing he created. Anna loves irony.
As for their hair loss... The scientist DID seem to have some thinner hair when he was on the floor, dead. But, as Bane said, he's higher up, and might have avoided the gas more. Also, creating the 9 killed him, not anything else. Though, I'm sure he would have been killed eventually, anyway.

Yea, I love irony, but if you think about, it's kind of unlikely that he would even step foot on the battlefield. He's probably like Anne Frank in a attic or basement somewhere.

Maybe he got betrayed by his soldiers? That would be epic irony. <3
I think it's suppose to be him, though... it just looks too much like him. And Shane loves Easter eggs, as we've all discovered. XD

*revives thread*
Back on examples from the movie, I realized that they briefly did this with the stitchpunks before any of them died. When 9 and 5 went to save 2, they thought he was dead in that birdcage, and his face wasn't shown until he regained consciousness. I think this was partially a way to shock the viewer even more when they shattered that rule by killing 2 and having him fall to the floor with steam coming out of his mouth and eyes. *shudders*

On the subject of the Chancellor being extremely well preserved, logic would make you figure that if all life forms were killed off by the poison gas, the little decomposers (tiny organisms that eat up what's left of dead bodies) would have been killed as well. I also agree that with the Scientist being on higher ground, the gas didn't effect him quite as much. His cause of death was giving 9 life, not instant-death poison like many of the others.
I really do think this is the Chancellor, to be honest. XD Looks a lot like him, and I would think the animators would have liked to throw in something to hint at what happened to him. [/size]
