Brody

**Brody** is one of the main characters in *The I-Land*. He is portrayed by Alex Pettyfer.

## Life Before Prison

Brody was a murderer, who raped and killed many women. He was eventually caught.

He received the death penalty, and was in prison for years before he signed up for the redemption program. He was one of the ten people chosen to test it out. His memories were then completely cleared.

## Throughout the Series

### Season 1

#### Brave New World

Brody washes up on the shore with the nine other people. When he learns that his name is Brody, he notes that it doesn’t ring a bell. K.C. continuously flirts with him throughout the episode, even though he keeps attempting to break up the bickering between her and Chase. He later volunteers to search for shelter, food and supplies with Chase.

After some time, they come across gorgeous waterfall which guarantees them fresh water. Brody tells Chase that maybe they should keep this location secret. Chase jokingly agrees, comparing his mindset to the survival of the fittest. The two then flirt, and share a kiss. After a moment, Chase pulls back. He tries to kiss her again, but she pushes him away, telling him that she said no. He then grabs her, forcing her to the ground. She tries to wiggle away, but he grabs her butt and pushes her against the ground. However, he underestimates Chase’s strength; she escapes and pulls a knife on him. Brody insists that he was just joking around, but Chase runs away.

Brody arrives back at camp before Chase, learning about Donovan’s attack. When Chase returns moments later, she attacks him, whacking him with a stick. Despite having instigated the fight, Brody happily lies that she came onto him. Chase reveals to the group that Brody tried to rape her and keep the waterfall a secret. However, Brody uses his charm to convince most of the group that if he had hypothetically attacked her, she would have gotten back before him (when in reality Chase had used a different route back to the beach so that he couldn’t find her). After Chase storms away, Moses asks him what actually happened. Brody lies that they just kissed.

Brody later confronts Chase, telling her to rejoin the group back at camp. However, she is not willing to let it go, and refuses to give him back the knife, in case he tries to attack her again. He refutes the attack saying that, “there’s sex and there’s no sex. We didn’t have any sex.” He then reveals that he needs Chase to vote for his idea to move inland.

After the day’s events, they gather together and discuss their options. Brody suggests moving inland while Cooper argues against it. As the group discuss their options, Chase tells them all she wants to leave the island completely. It’s here we learn there were 39 steps between each of the cohorts lying on the floor. As they talk, Mason and Hayden reveal they found something in the sand, and as they head up the beach to investigate, they find a sign that says “Find Your Way Back”. Despite Chase’s urges to take this seriously, Brody and everyone else goes back to camp.

#### The Gorgeous Palaces

Chase gives Brody the cold shoulder before hiding the raft and the cases she’s found from him.

Later, he and K.C. head out to look for supplies. She questions him about what happened the day prior, to which he lies once more, saying that they just kissed. “Like this?” K.C. asks as she kisses him. The two then hook up. While it is not shown on screen, it is heavily implied throughout the next few episodes that he was very rough with K.C. or he violated her boundaries.

He is present at the camp later when Chase and Cooper return from their hike. Chase doesn’t hesitate to take a jab at Brody, comparing the sizes of their spears to his small penis size. She and Cooper then explain to the group that they found an abandoned building inland, and that it has running water. Brody insists that it’s too long of a hike. Cooper squares up to him this time and punches him in the jaw, leading to a small fight. Afterwards, Brody swiftly grabs Chase, stealing the knife. The group then turns on Brody, seeing the person he is and his lust for power. Brody leaves the group, going into the forest.

At some point that night or in the early morning, Hayden, believing Chase and K.C.’s claims, takes matters into her own hands. She takes Chase’s knife and stabs Brody in the gut, killing him.

It’s at this point that the physical version of Brody - outside the simulation - dies.

Hayden then drags his corpse to the beach, framing Chase for his murder.
