Thoughts on the Ending S-P-O-I-L-E-R-S


I agree. S P O I L E R S (of course!)

It's hard to tell, but I think it's Ray who says "Run" at the end, like he's gonna give them a chance.

I swear I heard him cock a pistol early on the trip down that road. Hard to imagine he wouldn't know it's a setup shortly after they got into the car. One in back, one in front, got in at the outpost biker hangout, their 'tude as soon as they got in.

He still loves Zoe, but given the hair growth and job for a few months, he has no death wish, else he'd have "topped" himself by now.

Cab driving esp. in the sticks is a dicey profession, so maybe he's looking to be tested, or even figures Freddy might send someone some time, but maybe for old time's sake, or turning a new leaf, he'll give Fred a chance to prove it was "a mistake."

I can't think of a better ending, esp. as others said, it allows for a Season 4, and gives us a good taste that the Old Ray is merely lying dormant... like a cat.

Will there be a season 4?

To me it kind of felt like a Sopranos style series ending.

reply

Since then, I've learned that the word "run" is part of that song. i also read that Ryan is tired of the character Ray and plans no further seasons. So we are left to speculate if he bests the two punks and also if he goes back to "top" Freddy.

I know how I'd like it to go.

reply

He definitely would best those two punks. He won't kill Freddy.

reply

Why do you think he'll let Freddie live?

reply

Too much history, maybe. But I didnt get the vibe that he would be back to kill him. I'd have to rewatch the episode. I remember being sure of it when I wrote that.

reply

He seemed hesitant, even regretful that he let Freddie go the last time, so I'd think another attempt on him would seal Freddie's fate. Might also bring Ray back into the "biz," being bored with running a cab in the sticks.
