SUSPENSE! That is what KYLE XY is all about.
Who is Kyle?
Who is anybody?
What are those love triangles between family members and friends all about?
Why is Kyle acting like he is BIG BROTHER to the family?
Why do we LOVE seeing them fall in love?
Anybody notice the DIRT reference in the Kyle brain data reference at Mada Corp?
I felt like trying to take a stab at answering some of those questions:
1) From this week's episode, it seems to be becoming clearer that Kyle was an experiment using Adam Baylain's DNA, almost like a clone, to see his full potential beyond his 13-month gestation period. And the same thing with Jessi, except I don't know who's DNA he could've possibly taken to make her (either an ex-girlfriend, or sister).
3) I think the love triangles are used as relief in the show, so that it's not intense sci-fi all the time. It's also used as another conflict in Kyle's life.
4) Ever since the Tragers officially adopted him into their home, he probably feels like he owes it to them to act like the big brother of the family. He also has developed a strong bond with them and feels it's his duty to act brotherly, and would do anything to protect them, which I think is sweet.
5) In particular, we like seeing Kyle fall in love because love is a new emotion for him. He's never experienced or seen romance, so it's nice to see romance from a clueless point of view, even though he seems to be a natural romantic

Hmm...I have a feeling Emily Hollander is the adult Jessi look-alike. Not sure why else Mada Corp would hire her and give her the alias as Jessi's sister. And if it's not her, I wonder what happened to her.
