The Institute season 2 isn't holding back on the drama, as episode 1 has already given us a shock death.
But, as we've come to expect, danger is around every corner - and, after Luke has a premonition about a disaster befalling a mother and baby on the street, he can't help but step in. The issue is that everyone has filmed him doing so. Soon enough, the gang are hunted down and, while Wendy is able to warn the others, she's unable to save herself.
Speaking exclusively to Radio Times about that shocking twist and how it's going to impact Tim and the kids, Barnes said: "One of the interesting things in the first season is that there is a sort tragic backstory to Tim, but you never see it.
"In the second season, the stakes are very high for him. He's this pseudo-parental figure to these kids, and they are on the lam and trying to stay hidden, and then, they have this tragedy in the first episode which kind of stokes the fire and fuels the story and projects Tim through the arc of the second season."
Just how that all plays out, only time will tell.
"The book introduces the character of Tim for the first 70 pages, and then he disappears for the next several hundred pages until [Tim and the young adults in the Institute] meet," creator Benjamin Cavell explained.
"I mean, it's hundreds and hundreds of miles away in a different state. It's in South Carolina, and the Institute is in Maine. It felt to us as though we're missing an opportunity to have him nearby."
But how did the author himself feel about the switch?
"But we were able, Jack [Bender, director] and I, together we were able to sort of essentially show him why it's not the departure that it feels like, and it's actually just in some way amplifying what's already there in the book."
