Question about Joe (spoilers!)


Why did Joe die in the hospital after getting shot? Why weren't the docs and nurses working on him? He was just lying in a bed, knowing he was going to die. Was it because he had stage 4 cancer and they figured it wasn't worth the effort to save him? Even so, shouldn't they have tried to save him from dying of a gunshot wound? I'm confused.

JDM's "not enough time" had me in tears. Oh my God, the man can act!

That's not the point. Maybe the bullet was poisoned?

The "villain" orchestrated so he could die while on the job to receive a nice pension for his family.

The killer said he had 73 days of agony ahead of him, so maybe he was too far gone to recover from a gunshot wound.
