| MRS VERMONT |
 Octavia’s mother is a 1950s cliche American mother. She seems to have walked straight out of a television commercial and is always “offering” products to people she meets. Glamorous and well-dressed she has an impeccable appearance yet her behaviour is to say the least – unpredictable. Is she human or an android? If so, where did Commander Vermont meet her? And what is the implication for their daughter – Octavia.Why does she always seem to be in such a good mood? Why is everything so perfect from the outside with the Vermont house – are there in fact secrets that are hidden inside?
