Agree with asante

I wouldn't say 'torture' however he was going to illegally experiment on her for sure, and she could have been hurt. And in the end I think in Randall's view it would have been the equivalent of a human illegally testing on an animal. Definitely still morally sketchy though not the same as a human testing on a human. Except the reality of the situation it was- humans and monsters are on the same level of intellect

Yeah, maybe not exactly ''torture'' (sorry, I was a bit out of line with that), but that machine could have seriously harmed her [Boo] and maybe even presented possible death. From what I understand seeing how the machine worked on Fungus, it literally suffocates you to death. If you stop and think, ''extracting screams'' that's logically connected to any airway passage. Inserting that mouth piece would no doubt cut off all source of air. Even if they turned off the machine before that could happen, being without air for too long may result in permanent brain damage (I know from personal experience). With Boo, even though the dials weren't turned up all the way to maximum capacity, the power of the machine would traumatize her. A child that small could not survive the impact that machine would deliver. I don't know if Randall was aware of it, but like you said, that might've been the least of his concerns, viewing Boo as simply ''sub-human'' or at least something remotely close. To him, she might as well have been a ''dumb animal''

Well I think you mistunderstood me, Randall didn't really seem UPSET at all over the idea of killing Sulley, and even pleased in some ways- he's smiling, though at the same times he's throwing his bitter retort at him. It's really a mic of his vengeful desires, ebcause he sees Sulley as standing in his way in everything as well as what he has to do now. Though mostly I do think the attempted murder probably wouldn't have happened without Waternoose's say so, all the same.
