Yup. I mean, I had that reaction in real-time--by the time the final scene rolled around I was totally over it. I mean, obviously it wasn't going to stick--she's the star! and like you said, it's not like they don't kill people in this show--I just chafe at it being all about the choices Peter makes, and some of that is holdover annoyance from the longer plot arc that kept trying to set us up for 'which Olivia will Peter choose?!?' which was a plot I found deeply uninteresting and I'm glad they didn't really go there in the end. I'm over the moon that he got disappeared and am really excited to have the Olivias together and Peter at least temporarily out of the picture for crucial decision-making.

To be honest I was most worried they'd kill off Astrid in this season, and am VERY RELIEVED they have not done that, even if I think she deserves her own plot arcs and things. Basically, I am feeling very YAY SHOW and WOW DIDN'T SEE THAT COMING and OK BUT WHAT NOW??
