OH MY GOD.
I love Sean so much, you guys. You can tell that the writers of this show are all about Paige, Sean and Emma because they always have to have the plots revolve around them, and even when they don't, they always let these kids do the brave/good/whatever things. I don't mind the extra Seanness, but it's kind of getting old, especially with Emma, whom I hate.
Speaking of which . . . Emma and Sean CANNOT get back together. I saw the previews for the finale twice last night and I threw a pillow at the TV both times (granted, I was drunk, but). I love the drama, I especially love the Sean-centered drama but I'm so going to cry if he gets back with Emma.
I generally don't like spoilers but I've gotta go find some now so I can find out if he does -- I can't wait until next week.
ETA: I just wanted to add that, from a less emotional, more objective standpoint, this episode was still fantastic. The kids just acted the hell out of it -- god, Craig's face when he saw Jimmy? Rick throughout the episode, especially the way he shut his eyes when he was pulling the trigger? Paige when she's comforting Hazel at the end and shares that look with Spinner, managing to show that she knows something's up with him in just that once glance? Just wow. How is it possible to make a girlfriend-beater and school-shooter still be somewhat sympathetic? I'm on TWoP right now and somebody said that the writers could have taken the easy way out a thousand times (by making the shooter someone we didn't know, by making Rick's tormenters someone we didn't know, instead of Spinner, by making Emma a saint, etc. etc. etc.) but they never did, which I totally agree with it. It's such a shame that this show doesn't have a wider audience, because it's hands down one of the best, most interesting shows on TV today.
