Yes, it is the actor who is making this work. It did surprise me that Edward's boss would tell Henry everything. (Maybe because she assumed that Henry could be easily erased?) But it did set up the communication between the two personalities. As I remember, a similar communication method evolved in "Jekyll". I didn't catch the credits...there are so many similarities. Are we ripping off a British show again?
