GUESS WHAT I JUST FINISHED, HOLY CRAP THAT TOOK LONGER THAN EXPECTED.
Anyway, I hope I get to see more of the dynamic between Pomni and Caine in future. It is such an interesting dynamic to me, like at this point I don't even care what it is labeled as. Ship or not, I just want to see more of these two hanging out. Anyway, on to analysis cause apparently I love overanalyzing this show, even if it is only the pilot.
You know how I said I had this theory that Caine is gonna keep a close eye on Pomni compared to the others, well I think I should explain why here.
Pomni unlike everyone else who got trapped had hope given to her the first day, via the exit door, BUT unlike all the others, that hope was immediately shattered. She is definitely not OKAY!!! Like I am fairly certain she is much more likely to abstract now, AND IT IS ONLY HER FIRST DAY!!! Thus the idea that despite Caine not understanding humans well, he will notice this issue. Like he does seem to care for the humans, but he's got no real idea how to show it.
Anyway I feel like it will be through this unlikely friendship Caine would learn about humans a bit more. Like an AI learning, well exactly that actually!!
Another thing I noticed is Caine right after explaining the adventure of the day, leaves. No reason given, just leaves. Now I think there are two reasons this might have happened. Option A: He has figured out from experience that newbies need to get used to everything before he tries to really interact a bunch with them, since those same newbies would be overwhelmed and definitely not trust him. Or Option B: The humans already there don't trust him already, and he's found that it's better to just let them do their own thing most of the time. Either way he is gone almost the entire day.
Though that could also be a nod to how the ringleader in a circus act too honestly. The ringleader lets the performers do their thing without really interfering with the act, unless it is needed. Sometimes the ringleader (if I remember correctly) even leaves the stage completely, though they are in the background.
Anyway back to the dynamic of Caine and Pomni, I really hope my pattern recognition is correct here and it's not just my daddy issues speaking (though knowing me, it probably is), and it is indeed a father-daughter dynamic I'm seeing. A couple folks on A03 even have written some fan-fics about it already, and I really like them. But I hope we can get this series funded, cause then we can see more of the dynamics of ALL the characters.
Anyways HAVE A GOOD DAY!!!!

i believe barry keoghan (5’8”) was cast alongside jacob elordi and archie madekwe (both 6’5”) in saltburn so the movie could have as many cinematic close up shots as possible of oliver’s baby blue eyes gazing up at men striking an intimidating pose. just always looking up. sluttily
