The first two episodes (read the summary of io9 here) had to spend a little time to make the necessary configuration, to present the characters and how they integrate into the story that will take place. So far, one of the most unique relationships is that of Joe, Aka Hermit (Alex Lawther) and Wendy (Sydney Chandler), formerly Marcy. They are brothers and sisters, with a touch.
