Nope, that was revealed this episode. Cyan was also drawing the puppetmaster as her papa in the scribbled drawings as well this episode. I think it was meant to be him anyway.
Oh, it didn't feel like much of a reveal. They just kinda mentioned it as if everyone already knew.
Yeah, I feel like so many things could have been handled differently about this show. With this reveal, I feel like it could have been foreshadowed when the Puppetmaster was having Rouge go through that freaky dream sequence. They already had the dream Rouge and current Rouge blending into one another. I don't think anybody would have batted an eye at adding a third look into that milieu. Then, when Cyan physically shows up in the story, it could have been a more dramatic reveal then rather than just a passing remark.
Yeah,Cyan was part of that dream sequence, but since that entire ep made no sense, it was not clear at all if she was the Puppetmaster's creation or if Cyan existed all along. I feel like that was their attempt at foreshadowing, but it's a pretty poor one.
Sigh...I should have checked before saying anything. I think I would be more invested in paying attention to details like that if I hadn't already gotten extremely lost as a viewer by that point. Each week when I jam out to the OP, I am reminded of how cool episodes 1 and 2 were, but then the rest of the show happens.
I mean, like I said, it was very unclear if that was supposed to be foreshadowing or some sort of clue. I don't blame you for forgetting lol.
