Any other thoughts, characters or scenes you'd like to discuss?


Robin (robinmy) | 1214 comments I was a little lost on what what Wally, Calvin and Marley were doing. Marley was selling a vault along with the coffin, funeral service, etc., to the grieved families. Did he have Wally and Calvin bury the coffin without the vault, or did they bury everything like normal and then dig it back up to retrieve the vault to use it again? I still don't see how Steve Earlman ended up in a barrel. Did Simon dig him up to take his brain?

I thought Calvin and Wally were digging up the vaults and reselling them. It wasn't clear but either way, the vault didn't stay with the body.

As Simon worked at the funeral home, he probably stole the body after the funeral or was maybe even responsible for the final burial aspects.


Robin (robinmy) | 1214 comments I completely forgot that Simon worked part-time at the funeral home. That explains it.


Charlene (charlenethestickler) | 1392 comments I kept thinking that Tully might sneak over and plant the daffodils for Maggie.

I do wonder what long-term effects Maggie might have to endure as a result of her extreme hypothermia. Hopefully, she has total healing eventually.
