Part 9/12:
A significant point of tension involves the character of Abby and her potential sympathetic portrayal. Many fans found it challenging to empathize with her initially, especially given her imposing MMA fighter look. The casting of Caitlyn Dver raised questions about her suitability for the role, with some thinking she should have played Ellie instead. The series’ choice to delay or alter the timeline—perhaps to accommodate the actor’s age—adds complexity to her character arc.
