Not exactly. I’m wondering if Flynn is Lucy’s son from an alternate future, and that the big changes he’s making to history are just incidental to his real goal of getting his parents togethe
So, more like Terminator meets Return to the Future? There seems to be a connection between Lucy and Flynn, but now that I think about it, I wonder if it’s quite as straight forward as direct kinship — that seems fairly predictable. Perhaps he is a former student? Flynn has two stated drives so far: “They [whoever they are] killed my family” and “I want to save America.” And we’re led to believe that future Lucy is the one who sets him on this path.
