- Quotes
Peter Quinn: Carrie, I guess I'm done. And we never happened. I'm not one for words but they're coming now. I don't believe in fate, or destiny, or horoscopes, but I can't say I'm surprised things turned out this way. I always felt there was something, kind of, pulling me back to darkness. Does that make sense? But I wasn't allowed a real life or real love. That was for normal people. With you I thought, ah, maybe, just maybe. But I know now that was a false glimmer. I'm used to those, they happen all the time in the desert. But this one got to me. And here's the thing, this death, this end of me, is exactly what should have happened. I wanted the darkness. I fucking asked for it. It has me now. So don't put a star on the wall for me. Don't say some dumb speech. Just think of me a a light on the headlands, a beacon, steering you clear of the rocks. I loved you. Yours, for always now, Quinn
It would be fair to even compare these last chapters to those of season 1 if only this finale were such as bombastic as season's 1. Instead, it is a much lighter episode, one that, however, does give resolution to the unfinished stories that emerged on this season successfully, which is basically what an ending should do.
I'm looking forward to the next season mainly to see how this drama from the last scene is going to develop. With luck, maybe it's going to end up the way I believe fans are expecting for a long time. Maybe it is the destiny indeed.
