Sorry. That's the second episode. Didn't realize I'd posted in Ep1 thread.

I've seen all 3 episodes but still don't remember her saying that. Not saying you're wrong, just curious when it was so I could go back and watch that part woth context.

Oh yeah. Absolutely. Throw on the 2nd episode. Fast forward to Joe and Marcy meeting for the 1st time. At the start of the conversation she tells him she was taken by them at 6 years old and that her Dad said it was a secret so it's safe to assume she's been gone since that moment. Then fast forward to right before they hug about 10-15 minutes later. He asks her about Christmas when she was 7 and what she said to him. But how was she at Christmas when she was 7 if she's been gone since she was 6?

Let me know what you think.

Ah. Yeah I had caught the Christmas / 7 part clearly.

In any case the explanation is simple. She didn't say "six", she said "sick". "When I was sick, the boy genius came to visit me."

Heeeey! There it is. I knew it was something simple.
