"Just second-guessing, I guess," Logan said. "[Helen] and Ryan were really that like first love, you know, this is back when they were in high school. So you know, you always kind of hold on to that first love especially when you're constantly in and out of relationships with that person most of your life."

Logan told us that he believes Helen just still had feelings for Ryan and their last breakup didn't end on a terrible note. Though it seemed like the two had seemingly gotten past their differences, Ryan eventually tells Helen that he can't pretend to be happy in Serenity any longer.

"Eric is just, he's the guy you know, he's so sweet," he said. "His backstory, by the way, is something that we really need to dive into."

"We know a lot about it but his character is so intriguing and almost ominous in a way, you know what I mean?" he added. "His character does have so much texture and so much going on, I think Eric and Helen and just their chemistry [...] their chemistry is so so good. So I want to see it. They definitely are meant for each other." Well, we certainly agree.
