Character Relationships in Touch

Martin Bohm (played by Kiefer Sutherland) is a protagonist in Touch. Martin is a former reporter and the single father of Jacob, whose mother died in the September 11 attacks. He struggles to raise his autistic son while facing social-services scrutiny, then follows Jacob's numerical guidance and becomes involved in protecting the people connected by the God Sequence. Jacob Bohm (played by David Mazouz) is a protagonist in Touch. Jacob is Martin's 11-year-old autistic son, who has never spoken but communicates through numbers, patterns, notebooks, and a tablet. His unusual perception leads Martin to help strangers, uncover the God Sequence, escape Aster Corps, and become central to the fate of the 36 Righteous Ones. Amelia Robbins (played by Saxon Sharbino) appears in Touch. Amelia is a former child patient whose experiences gave the numerical pattern its original name, the Amelia Sequence. She is Lucy's daughter and shares a telepathic connection with Jacob, making her a target of Aster Corps before eventually losing her special powers. Calvin Norburg (played by Lukas Haas) appears in Touch. Calvin is a former Aster Corps genius who becomes involved with Martin, Jacob, and Lucy while trying to heal his brain-damaged brother. His personal struggle runs alongside the search for the God Sequence, but his efforts ultimately fail when his brother dies.
