Melissa answers “Thoughts on the ending?”

Frances asked this question about Verity:

Thoughts on the ending?

Don't get me wrong, I'm leaning toward team manuscript on this one, but I have to wonder if Jeremy knew or suspected more than he let on.

If you have someone who is truly incapacitated, why on earth would you move them to the second floor? That would be a serious hazard safety-wise. (Crap happens to elevators.)

I'm just over here wondering if Jeremy did this for a couple of reasons, one, to put as much distance between Verity and her office.

After all the jig would be up if someone caught her sneaking around. (Even though she claims to have done this while he was sleeping, that's a hell of a risk.)

And Two, possibly, would be to put himself between her and Crew while everyone slept.

It's a little different during the day when the nurses are hanging on her every move. It'd be hard to trust a woman if you thought she might've had something to do with your child's death. It doesn't matter if that thought only lasts a split second. Once it's there, it's there.

And honestly, letting another woman sleep in their bed? Guest or not, that'd be like giving Verity the middle finger. Relationship over.

So how could Verity retaliate? By squirreling away a letter that might manipulate the situation in her favor even after the fact. So as the couple goes, I feel like they're both unreliable. One being vengeful and the other...just a villain. I mean, it gives "Write what you know." a whole different meaning.

Though I do find it strange that Lowen kind of takes on some of Verity's quirks and mannerisms. Girl, did you really have to bite the headboard?
