Think that is the point Y to get fans invested in their characters again

Shame they had to kill off a 4 yr old to redeem jason , but it is what it is.

tiic know jake jason lucky and liz are ratings gold. they will get the fans back

only will they stick around or walk now that jake is gone.

sure tiic are hoping rh sbu are so compelling we fall in love with them as INDIVIDUAL characters again and stick around and watch

I just see it as more "closure" and trying to go back to liason "as friend" and tiic being able to throw in a few liason scenes now and again yet not truly write for them as a couple. hope that makes sense.

like they are trying to show they have both moved on and jake is now gone so there is nothing , but friendship between them.
however todays showed they have a lot left between them stecky sure brought it.
