So in the ‘thoughts before finale’ thread I called it on John being the father (not a great leap of logic) and I also called the possibility of what turned out to be the ‘big’ twist that Ryan was Erin’s killer.
I agree that Dylan’s actions, up to sticking a gun in Jess’s face to keep her quiet, were over the top dumb and a clumsy red herring. And his little redemption arc at the end was also dumb and unconvincing.
And the Guy Pierce character, what a pointless sub plot. I really do think they stuck him into the show just as another red herring, to have people like us say “he’s got to have SOMETHING to do with all of this, right? Right? He’s too A-list to be in this otherwise. Right?”
