Revenge (TV series)/WMG
Loser Daughter of Loser Dad: Part of the reason Amanda was in Juvie until her 18th birthday will have been due to a chain of foster households who treated her according to this trope.
It has been revealed that the child psychologist in charge of Amanda's case was bribed by Victoria into treating Amanda like this. She then used Amanda's refusal to accept this as a reason to keep her committed in a juvenile facility. We don't know if Amanda was ever even placed in a foster home.
- She went to at least one. Her foster father abused her so she burnt his house down.
It wasn't Daniel who was killed in the How We Got Here opening.
The camerawork clearly goes to some trouble to never show the body's face, which has to have some purpose as we see Daniel in the same episode.
- Some clues point towards Tyler, especially since he now has Daniel's phone.
- Except he doesn't, anymore.
- But yet Daniel's sister is shown looking at his body and then screaming in utter horror and grief as she recognizes him.
- Confirmed. It's Tyler's body, not Daniel's.
It was Daniel who was shot in the opening, but he isn't dead.
No one has checked for a pulse yet.
- ...he was shot in the head and then in the chest. Pretty sure he's deceased.
- It's a Soap Opera. People in soaps have survived far worse.
Charlotte is Amanda/Emily's sister.
Victoria Grayson and Amanda'a dad were lovers. Charlotte is surprisingly nice, gets good grades and her love interest is the little bro of the guy who carries a torch for Amanda (a 17 year old torch). The two girls have much in common. And think, what a lovely, twisted arc this would be... like the Albert character in the Caveizel movie (you know, when Dantes discovers that Albert is actually his and Mercedes' son. The reason why she rushed off so quickly to marry Fernand was because she was pregnant, not because she forgot Edmond so quickly.)
- It has been confirmed that Charlotte is not Conrad's and David at least believed she was his.
Before he was sent to prison, David Clarke invested in a biotech company that was working on life-extension treatments, and they tested them on Sammy the dog.
We know that David was willing to invest in another young entrepreneur with a wild idea, and there has to be some reason that a 17-year-old Labrador is still not only alive, but pretty active.
- Jossed. It seems he hasn't been so much active as just been trying to spend more time at the old beach house before he dies.
Tyler is running his own revenge scheme on the Graysons
He got close to Daniel so he can use him to get closer to the Graysons. By appearing as the responsible friend who is trying to keep Daniel out of trouble he can gain their trust.
Tyler is running his own revenge scheme against Daniel himself
The reason Tyler's been acting the way he has toward Emily is that he's a clingy jealous boy with regard to Daniel.
- After the most recent episode, his actions seem toward Daniel seem far less like just a scheming Poisonous Friend and more like a jealous crusher scorned - and considering we saw him sleep with Nolan just to keep himself around the Graysons...
Sammy the dog had an encounter with Ned from Pushing Daisies.
That would totally solve the problem...
David Clark is still alive.
There's a reason why Nolan is so unpopular, and it's going to be revealed at some point in the near future.
Tyler said it himself: 'You'd think people would be crawling all over you, and yet here you are, all alone.' Nolan did something that got him alienated, and eventually, we'll find out what.
- Most of the episode seems to suggest he's just kind of obnoxious, and often purposefully so - as Emily says, people with as much money as her and Nolan have to build up certain defense mechanisms.
The killer's identity.
We know it can't be Jack, as he didn't show up until after the murder was committed. And it seems highly unlikely to be Daniel, as that's just too obvious. My money, at the moment, is on Takeda.
- Confirmed.
Jack will find out Emily is Amanda in the season finale when he notices the double infinity tattoo from "Legacy" on her arm.
Now that the original Emily is out of the way, he's going to have to catch up with the game pretty soon or it will be increasingly difficult to find things for him to do in each episode. The tattoo would give a needed importance to "Legacy."
- Jossed. The real Emily has returned, pregnant with Jack's child, so Amanda decides not to reveal to Jack who she really is.
Ashley will ultimately be the Big Bad of Season 2, which will conclude with her being destroyed.
Nolan is alive, and will remain so.
It really wouldn't make dramatic sense to kill him off at this point, and the white-haired man needs to interrogate him to find out who else is hunting the Graysons anyways.
Big Ed is working for other bosses.
Worst. Security guard. Ever.
Amanda Clarke is this universe's Batman.
Think about it... left an orphan at an early age, she used her wealth to travel around the world, training for vengeance. She bugs and hacks everyone around her, looking for conspiracies to help her take down the dark forces of the Hamptons. She's also a martial arts/stealth master who comes up with a Batman Gambit for almost everything. True, her vengeance is a little more focused and a little less productive than Batman's, but she's clearly at least a second cousin. Once she takes down the Graysons and her revenge is complete, she'll turn her skills to vigilante crimefighting.
- Bonus points: A Grayson not directly involved with being evil will become her first Robin.
- My money would be on Charlotte then.
The double infinity is later on going to represent love, kindness and family in opposition to Amanda Clarke's choice of revenge
David Clarke wanted Amanda to choose a normal life where she could be happy, the double infinity will later play into the theme of the show because it was his love for Amanda. The double infinity is the symbol of love.
