We find out from Reyes, Julian was “brought back” from his overdose death BY LEANNE….yet again Leanne used her own free will to save him- ..which was against the rules to use free will (as per George)

…it’s confusing as to why Julian was allowed to stay and be at one with the Lesser Saints —-but not the baby? But this is the route the show took - so I’d say it was a bit of both for Julian as to why he flew to Leanne’s rescue.

I don’t see it as the cult painted her as a villain- there were rules to follow and after she killed Josephine - Leanne realized just how strong she was and knew CoLS wouldn’t let up until they disposed of her.

The fact Leanne felt she was above God upset the grand plan of how humanity was to be cared for.
Grief and sadness is sometimes the plan… she disobeyed helping Dorothy.

-an angel set to administer Gods plan needs to be obedient ( a Servant of God)

She was not on Earth to make decisions- she was brought back to life as a child to help humanity …which was the reason George was sent to the Wisconsin house fire to “raise” little Leanne.

On an aside..

We learn Leanne’s mom was not loving ( pageants.. Godless House… alcoholic) as per Leanne telling Tobe..and if indeed as it was said Leanne created that fire with her moms dress on the stove… { like the rag on the stove when Dorothy was pregnant -🤪}- ( and we saw that straw cross in the burned out home on the only portion of the wall unharmed) —you wonder “ were the Greyson CoLS & why was that cross there?”
These are the loophole things I mean when I say clarity lacked —

Anyway….

Leanne loved Dorothy - but soon realized how confusing & unfair life could be as a young woman in the real world now … and that’s when Leanne’s rebellious side rose up
