I'm getting that with Otto, which I didn't expect. Mostly because he's the most stoic and makes the rest of the Greens look like morons.
Not quite a Jamie Lannister arc or anything but maybe we'll get one of those.

I agree, Otto's one to watch out for.
That's where the first season fell flat for me. The absence of meaningful narrative arcs made it hard to connect with the characters and understand the world. Instead, the show got bogged down in isolated details and events spread across decades, which hindered emotional engagement. Strong stories and narratives are essential for providing meaning and helping both viewers make sense of the world.
There's a vast improvement this season, and I get they're building on and playing off setups we saw in season one . . . I don't know, maybe S1 was just a little too slow of a burn for me.
