After 10 years it came down to this? Really??? I'm probably not going to be very coherent, because I've been bawling my eyes out for the last 20 minutes, but they seriously said goodbye to the epic legendary mastermind like this?
Part of me is on the side that this is the laziest possible way to end the show that had so many twists and turns, and to not answer at least ONE of the essential questions. "He's Agnes's grandparent", that is to be counted as some quasi-answer? ...
The other part of me wants to believe that he was seriously ill (spitting that blood) and knew that for a long time, so he wanted to die on his own terms. That's the only little thing that is giving me some "comfort".
But Spader was such a marvel, so enticing, his every movement, speech, look, pause, smirk, frown, smile, gaze in the distance... in the end I am feeling like I'm mourning him, too. He should've won so many awards for this role (and for many others while we're at it), to be recognized and praised as he deserves. Yes, we who know his opus adore and admire him and continuously bow to him, but he deserves so much more.
I am truly hoping that after dedicating a decade of his life to this character, he was content with the way that he had to let Red go...
