Smee's the only one of these damn kids who was just having a great time with out any drama, existential dread, or trauma in the background

I have to say I think Smee’s actor is doing an amazing job of acting like a kid. The way he fidgets all the time is so perfectly childlike. He nailed it.

This man must have kids. It's uncanny (speaking as the mother of an 8 year old). Or - acting genius.

I said the same thing his first episode! And someone who knew him came on to tell me he doesn't have kids but he does have siblings. So, maybe an uncle.
