Eidetic memory, or total recall, is the ability to recall images, sounds, or objects in memory with great accuracy and in seemingly unlimited volume. Basically, photographic memory+ Hence her ability to remember the possitions of the gunmen in
War Stories, and her ability to learn a new dance just by watching in
Safe.

What did the Alliance do to her?
Related to her total recall ability are her extra-sensory abilities. It seems likely that in the beginning these abilities were dormant, mostly manifesting as heightened intuition. When the Alliance stripped her migdela it broke all the barriers that normal people have on that part of their brain. This would increase her psychic abilities, but as Simon observed, it messed her up pretty badly.

How come she kicks so much a**?
Dancer's physique+crazy reflexes? Is it any wonder they'd give her assassin training?
Quote:
What do the R.Tam Sessions really tell us about her?
Her intuitive abilities, while stronger than the average person, weren't fully developed until after she was experimented upon.

How did she get on Jubal's ship?
She went EVA in Bushwhacked and had a blast. When she sensed that something "not right" was trailing them, it's easy to think that she ran to the cargo bay and went "poof".

Actually, you just wind the cord around the stick first.
