Could Reggie’s Dad be in Endless?
Judy did say that Reggie reminded her of her father in many ways, maybe one of those ways was that he also liked to run away from societal expectations, and just like with Reggie, that led him to Endless? And if he did have access to Endless, he might have decided to live there for a while after his divorce, and as we know from episode 20 and 23, staying in Endless for too long can cause you to lose all concept of time and reality.
What if that was the real reason he never came back to visit his son or daughter? He literally doesn’t even know he’s been away for that long. And what if it was up to Reggie to find him and snap him back to reality?
How would Reggie react to finding out that Endless was the cause of her dad’s absence for all these years? Given the fact that she was planning to do basically the exact same thing when she grew up, this could reveal a cycle of abandonment (her dad abandons her, leading to her not wanting to form connections, leading to her abandoning her own loved ones). It would also be interesting to see someone come back from Endless after years of being there, having to adapt to real world responsibilities again, seeing that the world has moved on from them in their absence, and it would be great if it was done with someone the protagonist cares about.
