It was one of those parts in the comic that I didn’t like on first viewing, but that was when I had a very naive understanding of how grief works. Grief doesn’t just consist of crying. There’s blaming, self-projecting all from despair.
I kind of wish when Debbie was destroying the dishes two episodes ago, she should’ve blamed Mark for trying to take the fall because SHE wanted to. A brief moment of weakness despite not understanding that she could have been killed if not for Mark.
I did kind of like what they were going for last episode where Debbie’s obviously untrue thoughts that she was responsible for Nolan’s violence are validated by one of the victims’ loved ones. I loved that part because it was something that you could fear the most and it could happen to you anyway. But it just kind of feels repetitive in this episode. Debbie just gets visited by another person who feels sympathy towards her, but I wish it was a lot more deranged, and not just to shady people like Cecil.
