Paradise's Season 1 finale revealed that it was the librarian who killed President Cal Bradford in Paradise .

It's also revealed that we've actually met Trent ( Ian Merrigan ) before.

He was the man who attempted to shoot Cal on the White House lawn all the way back in episode 1 .

In the end, he killed Cal with a rotary drill bit.

" The Man Who Kept the Secrets " is the first episode of "Paradise" It's the only stronghold in an apocalyptic future, yet it was designed to withhold the status quo.

The writers who built Paradise come up late in the season may seem like an oversight, but that's the point.
