Any word on when Patton Oswalt will make an appearance? Or if Terry Crews is reprising the role of Lonny Church?

I am a little confused And one of you can shed light. Why is it at the end of the episode Maggie is reading the kid the book in one scene on the bus....when she said clearly he was dead instantly when he was shot. Does the timeline not make sense?

she was lying, trying to avoid telling the real story. the lawyer called her out on it, so she switched to the true events.

So did he die immediately or not?? That confused me, too.

Thanks a lot. Kind of stupid that they didn't give much indication of this. Also Sloan Sabbath at shake shack was a hilarious moment. The way she was drinking the milkshake definitely added to it.

It was the same thing when she claimed to have read him the story 3 times then admitted it was 8 times

It moments like those that got everyone on board with her when she first burst onto the scene. I'm glad they didn't forget that about her.

Wait, this doesn't make sense.

The flashback shows Maggie and the kid scrambling into the bus. Then a shot of her reading to him - in the bus!

But the she says he was killed instantly and doesn't correct herself.

So which is it? Why would she be reading to a mortally wounded kid??

she did not read to him on the bus.

1. Real: maggie pulled kid out from under bed
2. Real: maggie gave kid piggy back ride
3. Real: maggie carried kid towards bus
4. Real: maggie heard gunshots, got on bus
5. Fake: maggie then read to kid
6. Real: lawyer says, i thought the kid died instantly
7. Real: maggie is actually looking at the dead kid bleeding on the bus floor.

#7 doesn't come after #5 in the timeline, it replaces number #5.

Yeah, count me among the simpletons that didn't follow it clearly either. Was tired when I watched it but maybe I'm just dumb on top of that

Pointless? Umm, it was the whole point of not only the episode but the entire arc of the whole season!

I never would have guessed in a million years you didn't like it. Keep contributing. Your posts are valuable.

lol I've contributed a whole lot more substance to this thread than you have. Literally your sole contribution to this thread is yelling at me when I say I criticize the show.

Who is yelling? If anything I am laughing at your pathological obsesion with this show to watch it for years for the sole purpose of posting each week about how bad it was.

Anyway, I guess I'll need to put you on ignore which is a shame since you make valuable posts outside this thread.
