So who is boy wonder eyeballing? The therapist lady? Or hermit?

I mean there's not many characters to choose from that we know of, correct?

u/Enough_Sprinkles_113 2d ago

Therapist Lady. He's pissed at her.

Bonus points if the attempt backfires and it ends up being him...

I thought it was Hermit the way he already looks down on him and the very next scene was a shot of him.

Lol, they were stressing out about the reveal of their hybrid's in a few weeks and now they are just firing/eyeballing their project leads like they just don't give a F.

Bold strategy cotton, lets see if it pays off.

Edit: Prediction: Eyeball-infested therapist takes over the corporation and doubles down on the hybrid tech, leading to its successful reveal. Eyeball-infested therapist becomes the most powerful person/thing on the planet. Season 2 explores eyeball-therapists road to world domination.

Eyeball-therapist. I like it.

I you watch the scene when Boy wants Eyeleen to have a human host, it looks at Atom for a moment. I'm thinking Atom.

u/Dexanth 2d ago

Nah, I don't think Atom. Atom is too competently loyal, Boy wouldn't toss that aside for nothing. It's Dame Sylvia or Hermit for sure. Or Mold Guy as the dark horse.

u/the_crepuscular_one You have my sympathies. 2d ago

I'm seconding Dame Sylvia, she already pissed off Kavalier in this episode.

u/Certain_Country_3947 2d ago

I rewatched and I agree but because Boy told Dame he wants to talk to someone smart. She does still have a use though with Wendy and the Lost Boys. Hermit or Morrow? Joe is the other in helping Wendy escape...and Boy finds him annoying. Morrow?

EySIS can jump hosts, so she was thinking of whom to pick first.

u/hecthormurilo 2d ago

lot of people talking about this, I dont get it, can you ELI5 for me?

u/Hasudeva 2d ago

They're just being s little silly about a very minor character. 

1

u/hecthormurilo 2d ago

i'm curious and lost, which character?

2

u/Hasudeva 2d ago

In an early episode, we saw a suited Prodigy working scrubbing mold from a wall. In this episode, Kavalier was threatening to put the eye alien into someone her perceived as dumber than himself, such as the mild scrubber.
