[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We just saw episode one last night and it seemed clear that she is on the spectrum. Is it even possible she's not? [/quote] As she grows up this doesn’t seem as clear - maybe this is also something that can happen with autistic children, but by the end she seems more typical but quirky [/quote] Given the level of childhood trauma that she experienced, culminating with her mother trying to kill her and being drugged up at orphanage, there are a lot of possible explanations for her affect. She was basically a genius, too. It is possible that she was autistic, emotionally stunted, ahead of her time, or some combination thereof. I do think that her development towards the end indicates that her earlier affect and behavior was more a product of her trauma. When she matured and faced her demons, she seemed to relax and level off. [/quote]
