The show follows a cliffhanger structure, but never undervalues the cliffhanger with the next episode, always starting right where it left off. Also, the plot twists and turns that happen throughout all 12 episodes of season one aren’t only there for shock value, they are well-written for when you reflect after an episode, it makes complete sense.

The series focuses on Emma, Norman, and Ray, the oldest children there at age 11, as they discovered a dark secret about the world they live in. Season one follows an orphanage of children who wait to be adopted by parents in the outside world while they get tested on their intelligence.
