Can I talk about Caine for a sec?
The circus members aren't nearly as weary of him as I expected! I knew he wasn't gonna be an actively malicious character, but he's? Genuinely so nice??
He made an 'exit'!! He knew the circus members wanted an exit, but there's no way to actually LEAVE the circus, so he made them a fake exit because he thought that would be just as good!! He doesn't really understand humans, but he tries so hard anyway! He helps them pick out their names, and gives them little tasks and treats and stuff to keep them sane!
I don't think Caine has as much control as I originally thought. The circus members are his FRIENDS, and their distressed, and he's doing everything he knows to do in his AI brain to try and help them! He probably doesn't even know WHY they're there.
Imagine you're a computer, alone in your own little digital world. One day, someone else shows up. They're scared, they don't seem to be like you, and you decide to help them. Then more people show up in the same condition. You've got no idea what's happening, who they are, or how to handle it, but you try. You try SO HARD to be welcoming to all those terrified souls that manage o stumble their way into your inescapable realm.
That's Caine!
I was so excited to learn that Caine wouldn't be a malicious antagonist, mainly because I was curious to see how he would get written. I was completely blown away! If I didn't already like him before, I definitely would now. He's genuinely my favorite character by far!

I paused it on purpose to find him smaller while he was teleporting…
