The OA Season 2: 12 Huge Questions That Must Be Answered 

12. Will The Russian Story Be Relevant?

Prairie's story begins with her as a young girl in Russia, with a loving father who also happened to be a mobster.

It has some importance to the story, given it's where she had her first NDE and ended up going blind, but her fairytale-esque origins are then never revisited, and stand as an odd starting point given where her tale heads afterwards.

If we assume that this was, to some degree, real, then will Russia be of importance again? Will her father, if that was indeed him, play any sort of further part? There are suggestions that she is connected in some way to Russia, but how much and what it ultimately means remain a bit of a mystery.
