ROLE
Kevin's Friend
Finn provides a link to Kevin's ordinary life when almost nothing about Kevin's world feels ordinary anymore.
KEVIN'S FRIEND ON EARTH
Finn
“Finn didn't understand everything Kevin told him. He believed him anyway.”
Practical. Loyal. Honest. Hard to fool. Finn is the friend Kevin turns to when he needs someone on Earth to believe an impossible truth.
WHO IS FINN?
The Friend Who Believes Him
Finn is one of Kevin's friends on Earth. He is practical enough to question Kevin's wildest claims, but loyal enough to listen when Kevin needs him most.
When Kevin shows him the truth, Finn does not pretend to understand every piece of alien technology. He accepts the evidence in front of him and concentrates on what his friend needs.
Finn's importance comes from a simple choice: he believes Kevin. When Kevin leaves to search for Nivek and the truth about his parents, Finn promises to explain everything to Gran if he does not return.
