Does the presence a double past suffix here indicate ‘had thought’?
It’s not ‘a double past suffix’, it’s Past Perfect Tence. This Tence we use if something happened before another action in the Past, for example: “When I met Steve, he was eating an ice-cream which he HAD BOUGHT at ther corner of the street”. - It means, he bought this ice-cream before our meeting. You can find about the English Tences in my course ‘Step by step’. Good luck!

The link back to the lesson is not currently working (something that’s on our list!) so if you can include the text you were referring to that would be helpful 
“that’s on our list” - one of the most often posted texts here … Your “list” must be a very long one.

Yup!
If only Alex could split into 2 or 3 other Alexes, which would be kinda cool and useful. XD
