Theres one obvious candidate.
Season two spoilers ahead.
So far, so villainous.
Then in a twist of the kaleidoscope, everything shifted anda new perspectiveemerged.
Inseason two, Gideon enlists the help of Lucy to foil a mass killing at a toy shop.
They work together to identify the bomber so that Gideon can stop them on his next loop.
IfDen of Geeks theory is correct (speculation alert!
), then it could be a face that Gideon knows well… What if one of the people that Gideon saves in his many lifetimes turns out to be a monster?
Perhaps because they have a pre-existing relationship.
Evelyn couldnt cope with everyday life because she was beset by echoes, ripple and ghosts from other loops.
She was unbound in her current loop, haunted by multiple simultaneous realities.
Only in the cottage Gideon found for her could she live in relative peace.
What kind of life would that make for a little boy?
Twisted, perhaps by nature and certainly by nurture, Jonah grew up to become a monster.
Perhaps that what sent him on his cruel and inhumane killing spree.
Its blink-and-youll-miss-it, but one season two clue in particular could suggest were right.
The Teddy Bear
At Evelyns cottage inseason two, Gideon discovers some drawings on the kitchen table.
Evelyn is a keen artist, so we might assume that she drew them.
We know that she knew about the Rigbys bomb because of her memories of previous loops.
Inseason one, we see Gideon driving Jonah away from home and explaining why he had to take him.
Jonah is holding a teddy bear, which is dressed in a little t-shirt and toy dungarees.
Look again, and its obvious that this is the same bear as in the drawing.
Perhaps the teddy bear was originally bought from Rigbys (est.
How could somebody get away with such a terrible crime?
If they didnt officially exist.
When Gideon rescued Jonah, he took him out of society.
No ID, no national insurance, no passport, no way for him to be traced.
If Gideon was trying to create the perfect criminal, he couldnt have done a better job.
That would describe Jonah, wouldnt it?
