Spoilers season finale
Rewatched the whole series recently. How was Bullock ok with killing an innocent woman to take the place of another?
shareThat's a good question. I suppose after the whole Hearst affair...he was willing to avoid looking at himself in the mirror and restful sleep to have rid of him.
shareI could see him making a tough decision for the good of the camp but the choice should have been Trixie if it had to be someone right? How can you value one life over another?
shareSimple...trixy was far too valuable to al. Bullocks knew the fix was in...he was not long for sheriff. He would also know that long term peace and prosperity hinged on aggregating the town's folk for a common goal. He has also learned that al was the man for that purpose prior to hearst...and most likely would be the man afterwards. I think that with the murder of Ellsworth...everyone realized the main goal was to rid themselves of hearst...and that sacrifices would be necessary.
