I have to admit, I kinda hoped Jablonski’s baby had died. That’s kind of awful I guess? The baby did nothing wrong. I know we were supposed to think/hope it, though, in the first moments he stepped into his wife’s room with the gloomy lighting and their serious faces.

But of course, it didn’t happen that way and the man who killed Brenton gets a son on the same day Brenton died. Fuck, the showrunners are just determined to gut me, aren’t they?

SPOILERS FOR SEVEN SECONDS

Now this is actually a good, as well as tragic, twist, because there was plenty of foreshadowing that Brenton was going to live. He was found alive in the first place, right? And medically things were looking up! Latrice felt his hand squeeze hers! There’s his complicated relationship with his father, the mystery of what he was doing at that park in the first place. All of this pointed to Brenton waking up and dealing with these plot points.

But no, sometimes things just take a bad turn and there are no guarantees in life. No one gets to have all their loose threads tied up neatly before they die. Things just… stop, stories are left unfinished, and hearts are torn apart with grief. Every death is unfinished business, though this may be all the more true with lives taken away as abruptly and unfairly as Brenton’s.

And now the consequences are amped up to the max and no one, especially his parents, could ever stop asking if things could have been different if Brenton had been taken to a hospital immediately instead of abandoned for hours in the snow. This show truly does not fuck around or flinch back, and I both love and hate that.
