The story kicks in as there is less exposition. Nell has a bounty on her head placed by the Blanchefords.
To survive Nell has to commit highway robbery. Bringing her notoriety and back into contact with Charles Devereux and his band of brigands.
Only Nell and Charles team up. They could make for successful robbers.
As for a partnership. The Earl of Poynton dabbles in dark magic. He also has an eye in a union of some kind with Sofia, Thomas Blancheford's sister. Maybe Poynton can see that Sofia is a kindred spirit, a true survivor.
By the end of the episode the fantasy elements are unleashed. Nell is not alone with supernatural powers.
The only issue is. Will subsequent episodes do something refreshing or do down a well trodden path.
