I think he meant it’s “would have”, not “would have”. That’s not a misspelling though, so, double negative or something, lol :)
I’d thought of #1, and thought that was rather silly. But I hadn’t thought about the fact that she has a husband. Remember the boy asked her if she was married and she kind of snapped at him when she said “no”. So maybe she technically has a husband, but they’re separated, and it’s ugly. Maybe he’s holding something over her, something like that?
I’m glad you asked about the husband, I hadn’t given much thought to it, but I think her reaction to the question about whether she was married was a big deal.
I expected we’d find out she survived too. I guess it’s plausible she did, but without showing us, that would be pointless.
But it’s not like we were rooting for her specifically. If Alison Brie had been the last survivor, I would’ve been rooting for her, since she hadn’t done anything wrong at that point.
He’s the antihero we need. But not the antihero we deserve.
I think everyone would’ve died anyway. But yeah she ensured it.
It seems to me that the father’s intention was to drive Pegg out to the middle of nowhere to kill him. Then they hit the pedestrian, Pegg kills him, Pegg threatens to blackmail the father, so the father bonks him and locks him up.
What I don’t get is, if the father was willing to kill Pegg based on rape alone, then once you add to that murder and threats of blackmail, why no longer kill him? You were willing to kill him for rape, but not for rape and murder and blackmail?
Pegg said at one point he pleaded for the father to kill him, so maybe that part was true. Maybe the father decided that Pegg now deserved something worse than death.
I wondered about that too! I was waiting for an explanation about why the dungeon was there. Could it have been like a fallout shelter, and he was able to just add some locks and chains last minute?
I agree, except for the unintentional part. I think it was partly a dark comedy, where everyone who was awkward was doing it on purpose.
I don’t think she knew, when she gave him the book, that it was about him. I don’t think she made that connection until much later.
I think so. I don’t think she was lying; i think she genuinely believed that she had met Nick in person. I felt bad for her.
Ahh, that makes sense. I’m glad you wrote that out, well said.
She was the one person who could expose the truth about their catfishing. She had said to the whole world that she did have a physical relationship with him, which was the one hole in Pia’s catfishing theory. Ed probably knew it was just a matter of time before she realized that she hadn’t been talking to Nick, at which point she would have no reason not to tell the truth.
If she died, the world would go on thinking that Nick had an affair with her, and the case would remain closed.
I thought the same thing. I thought it was going to be the case that after escaping, he thought “I’m nowhere near home, but the whole world hates me, I need to choose my next step carefully. There are only a few people I trust, I need to go to one of them for help. Hey, I’m close to Dawn’s, I’ll go see her.” At which point Dawn and her husband realized they had a golden opportunity to cover up their involvement by killing him.
So yeah when it turned out that he did know it was her, and had gone there to confront her, I thought “yeah that was a bad choice.”
Ooh, that would’ve been good!!
It’s shown in a flashback at the end that during the original 1982 robbery, he was the one who called the police, and the robber shot him.
I agree. Don’t get all the hate.
Dang, now I agree, that would’ve been good!
I think he blamed her for all that happened. I think this was a combination of (a) needing someone to blame besides himself or his wife, and (b) he and the sister clearly didn’t get along.
Sure she’s the one who got them the box, but I don’t think it was her fault. She actually had good intentions when she got it for them, since she in her voodoo ways thought it would help the pregnancy. So yeah I thought that was kind of a crummy thing for him to do.
I think partisan politics and obstructionism are what are portrayed as the enemies, not the left or right.
Same goes for the U.S., electing Trump.
Everyone’s decisions being fueled by misinformation and fear.
