We met Aiden in the season premiere of last Sunday’s Revenge, but we’re going to learn much more about him later on. See what’s in store for this new character from these Revenge spoilers.

Emily and Aiden have a past together, but what that is, we’re not quite sure. We do know that they both trained under Takeda at his “Revenge” school (as ABC refers to it), but we don’t really know the nature of their relationship.

We also learned last week from Aiden that he made some kind of mistake, and he’s now going to help prevent Emily from making the same one. Mike Kelley, executive producer for Revenge, has implied that we’re going to see an “origins story” for Aiden in this season, revealing his history. That story is also going to include “how he and Em met and what bonds them.”

Consider us hooked. We would like to get to know this mystery man a little more, and we think that Takeda might even be using Aiden as a distraction for Emily.

While we’re getting to know Aiden in his origins story, we’ll probably also get some insight into Emily’s character and her past before she returned to the Hamptons to hash out her revenge plot.

Kelley hints at a future romance for Emily and Aiden, saying, “There’s an opening.” And considering that Daniel has moved on with Ashley, and Jack is trying to make things work with Amanda, it’s definitely a believable possibility.

But Emily might not be so open to it.

“But she’s not the most receptive. He has a lot of ground to make up with her, because he did something to her that’s very hard for her to forgive.”

So what did Aiden do to upset our heroine? We’re assuming we’ll find out in this backstory. Maybe they even had a previous love affair.

But Nolan might not be so keen on this new addition to Emily’s life. Kelly says Nolan “doesn’t love him.” And we wouldn’t want to see any suffering on Nolan’s part.

Gather.com says, “While it may be fun to explore Emily and Aiden’s past and present relationship, hopefully it’s not at the expense of Emily and Nolan’s partnership. Their relationship has been fun to watch since the beginning, [but] it could be fun to see Nolan a bit jealous.”

We look forward to seeing where this story is going and how Aiden’s introduction is going to shake up the Hamptons.
