So was he really just playing with her?


Or did he really like her? and all his lines where just his usual pick up lines? He tells the same things to Naomi and Vida she figures out.

Remember, Zeke likes to play games with people who like to play games and Carly proves herself a worthy playmate during their second date at the restaurant.

Showing Carly his monitor room sanctuary seemed like a big step - as if he has been searching for the right someone to join him and share in his godlike power.

Once Zeke is revealed to be a deceptive master manipulator at the finale, however, the games are over. Carly wants a real relationship, but Zeke's lies to her throughout make that impossible, and so she strips him of his power as punishment.

That being said, it takes a lot to get past the film's horrendous reputation. I hope more people can admire it for the little things in time.
