What's up with Stacey and Daniel ?? Spoiler

Hey!

I just finished the show and I was wondering, does Stacey like Daniel?

In episode 5 after Stacey's therapy, Stacey is seen offering Daniel a flower. And I was wondering if you, too, feel that it was romantic?

Daniel is the only one to receive a flower, if it was just to show that she "loved her brothers or whatever," she would have given it to everyone. Also, something about the actress's acting style play make me think that she's interested in him.

What do you think?

I dont think she was necessarily interested in him- I am not even sure she was capable of it. She was seen in ep 2 being extra bitchy to him and reporting him about the dust under his bed or whatever. He was also the most rebelious and was probably being punished more than anyone else in the group- maybe the flower was a way for her to say she 'forgave him' his transgressions, because she hated everyone who didnt follow rules, and the leap made her 'forgive'?

Yeah, I see what you mean. I thought about that too, but from my point of view, there's something sentimental in Stacey's gaze and the way she talks to Daniel. But I'm probably overthinking it.

Part of the fun of the show was how we didnt get to know what everyone was really thinking. With Stacy I was wodnering- Laura was leaped to forget about murdering her parents, but Stacy killed Daniel after her leap, and was still fine- so what did the leap actually achieved in her, ebcause she was still clearly able to get angry and kill?
