In terms of human biology, the Watts is abnormal in its development of both asexual and sexual reproduction methods. In nature, a spore is used for dispersal and survival, often for extended periods of time, in unfavorable conditions. A Watts deploys spores in periodic methane clouds, only resorting to gametes when swollen with ethanol or enraged.

Spores are usually haploid and unicellular and are produced by meiosis in the sporangium of a diploid sporophyte. Under favourable conditions the spore can develop into a new organism using mitotic division, producing a multicellular gametophyte, which eventually goes on to produce gametes. Two gametes fuse to form a zygote which develops into a new sporophyte. This cycle is known as alternation of generations.
The spores of seed plants, however, are produced internally and the megaspores, formed within the ovules and the microspores are involved in the formation of more complex structures that form the dispersal units, the seeds and pollen grains.
With the exception of Patrick, humans do not produce using spores.
