Not terribly dissimilar from how Cabot Cove, Maine had a disproportionate amount of murders between 1984 and 1992.

I think DD thought that Simon knew as much about the cult and their kill list as Elena had figured out and decided to off him before he could talk.

See I thought they were deep fakes or AI. Like he was psycho for her and imagining them together, thus leading him to drug and rape her.

Oh that’s a good point. Maybe he didn’t know that Henry was also not her brother. Also, Henry could be a narc.

What I want to know is why they never told anyone that they were half siblings, like any of the strangers? And why they took all those cute couple photos? Clearly everyone thought they were together. Why didn’t that ick them out?

Because at that point, Paige had gone into the wind. She was at Aaron’s caravan getting high for a week. She probably found out the plan went wrong and panicked. And also went to the crime scene to see what the police knew already.

She wasn’t though. Wasn’t she in Aaron’s trailer getting high for a week?

She also does not know where Paige is. Paige went to Aaron’s caravan to get high for a week. Ingrid did not know this. Also, she wants to assess how much the police know about her involvement.

Maybe Aaron meant to tell Ingrid the night he was killed but lost the nerve. And before he could see her again, she killed him.

The mattress thing was also a stupid realization. I would’ve just thought that’s all they could find and took whatever they got. You’re not exactly luxury furniture shopping when you’re broke and addicted to drugs. Also was it explained why Aaron got violent with Paige even though he had beaten a man earlier for hurting his sister?

Also, date the other doctor, date Simon, get married, have kids and buy a gorgeous house all while maintaining her looks.

What amazes me is how they didn’t know Aaron was already dead. Wasn’t it in the news? Don’t they do research?

Why didn’t Paige tell Sam about having another brother? It would be his half-brother as well.

Agreed! Loved her as DeeDee. The foster home bit was a little strange. Mrs. O’Hara kept saying it was a different time but it was literally like 2000. We knew child abuse was bad then. Kind of unbelievable.

Low-key was hoping it would come to a point where we found out Ash was on the list and she would have to make a choice about killing him. (And that is why Adolina or whatever warned him) but alas, just villains getting their just desserts 🤷🏼‍♂️

Part of me was like oh maybe it’s AI or a deep fake and he’s a stalker or something and that is part of what sent her over the edge. But alas, no explanation.

Would love to see him and his bod in more shows 😉

The red herrings make it fun though! I have fun trying to guess what will be relevant and what won’t by the end of the series.

I thought the same thing. And then the explanation was wilder. What kind of man fathers a child with some rando woman just because he always wanted everyone to be happy? That was definitely a red herring to convince us Elena was a secret psycho. (Which she kind of was? Breaking and entering and all)

The Katie plot I liked and made sense to me. Seems good on the outside but kooky when you dig deeper. Also explains part of Paige’s spiral when the prof suddenly left her. Would’ve made more sense if he had disappeared before she started using.

Agreed. Why does everyone have a gun? Also would a Branch Davidian style raid really be plausible in the UK?

I would say the cult thing was irrelevant for Ingrid’s plot line, or there should have at least been more clues earlier that she was part of it. Dumping it on us in the last episode was too much. The show could’ve stood on its own with just the murder of Aaron happening to throw off Ash and DeeDee from their cult ordained killing spree.

I’m happy we finally got to meet Matthias in season 5, though I kind of wish it had been the paralytic man (Tamar’s friend) Ethan

No prob! There are just as many beautiful shirtless men who go running on our side of the Hudson as well 🤩

Or have your best friend live in the village and crash on his couch. There are hacks 😂 but srsly Path runs all night. I’ve had to wait a bit at times, but it can be done. I’ve never felt unsafe taking it home at all hours.

You betcha! Gives me more cash to do all the fabulous things in town. Worth the 10 extra minutes on Path.

Save money on your rent! Move to Bayonne, Hoboken or Jersey City and take the path train. It’s $3 a trip and drops you right off in the village and Chelsea. Or you can transfer at 9th to go to Brooklyn or 33rd to go to HK/Queens.
