The Apple TV+ series stars Oscar nominee Colin Farrell as John Sugar, a private investigator looking into the disappearance of a Hollywood executive's granddaughter - however, we learned a whole lot more about him that he's been hiding in episodes 6 and 7.
Farrell spoke with RadioTimes.com to break down the twist and revealed that viewers almost found out that aspect of John's character in the first episode.
He said: "In an initial version, it was revealed in the first episode, and I'm really happy that we ended up kind of navigating it and orienting it in another direction [so] that it's revealed down the road, because I think it might have just let the audience off the hook a little bit sooner."
The series also stars Amy Ryan, James Cromwell and Anna Gunn, but as viewers wait desperately for the finale, when will it arrive and what's been the schedule for the full season?
