Tim Minear is Clueless
He's got zero clue about who his audience is, what they like, why they're watching the show. He doesn't understand his characters, either. And he especially seems to hate his actors. He needs to leave this show and go straight to superhell. This episode was extremely poorly written and makes no narrative sense. Shock value death is so lazy, and completely out of tune with the show. There's been nothing realistic about this show (and especially not this episode) since day one and that's what's kept everyone watching. It's low stakes! That's why we like it. No matter how absurd the story gets, everyone makes it home! It's a comfort show, you don't kill off main characters in a comfort show! You barely even kill side characters. Once again, Tim Minear has no idea what's he's doing.
