I thought the 2nd episode's end pretty much confirms that he's not telling the truth. He broke someone's hand with a hammer to justify the different signature thing. Theo is not Theo, or at least not the one they were friends with in 4th grade. So he most likely knows (like that power absorbing dude in the premiere) what has happened previously and he's made up some story to explain himself.

Or he is Theo and everything he says is true, only he killed his parents and threatened someone else to take their place. We don't know really ..
