Caspar Morrow is a character featured in the Apple TV+ series, Invasion.
A scrappy, soulful, nerdy kid with epilepsy from a lower-class family living on the outskirts of London. It’s him against the world. Caspar and his friends aren’t the losers in school, but they are badly bullied and ridiculed by a select few goons. When an unknown attack hits the U.K., Caspar and his classmates will have to survive on their own – their story becoming a kind of modern-day “Lord of the Flies.” Over the course of the season, Caspar will have to finally – for the first time in his life – break out of his shell.
History
The bus crash
Caspar arrives at school with his friends, where he is bullied by Monty until Mr. Edwards intervenes. He then gets on the bus for a school trip, during which he becomes acquainted with Jamila, who admires his drawing and taste in music. However, on the road, Caspar has a seizure, which distracts Mr. Edwards and ultimately results in the bus going off a cliff.[1]
Caspar joins Jamila in tending to Mr. Edwards, who got the worst of the crash, but he is still blamed by his classmates, specifically Monty and Jerome. Monty later approaches Caspar claiming to be apologetic for his past indiscretions, only to trick Caspar into revealing a secret about himself, which Monty uses to blackmail Caspar and gain leadership among the group.[2]
