Gotta be honest, I lasted 5 minutes before I bailed tonight. I don’t know if I can handle this episode. I really don’t know if I can handle another show making my favourite character *evil/bad guy* again and watch wondering if they’ll die….

I completely understand. That’s how I felt last year watching what was happening to Juliette. I did a lot of screaming at my screen then, too.

@pixiedustandbluebutterflies and I have talked about this a bit, and the way we see it, there are only a few possible explanations here:

1. Sean has really gone all the way over to the dark side. This was always in him and we just never saw it because it was so hidden (this would be bad writing and a complete character assassination, imo).
2. Sean has really gone all the way over to the dark side. This was always in him and we never saw it because we didn’t want to, but it was clearly there (this would be terrible but also really good writing; I could grudgingly get on board with this).
3. Sean is playing some kind of long game of his own, and doesn’t really believe in anything Black Claw stands for (this seems less and less likely with each episode).
4. Sean is doing this all for his daughter, and doesn’t really believe in anything Black Claw stands for (this also seems less likely after that last episode).
5. Sean went into this initially to save Diana, but Diana has been controlling Sean since the moment Black Claw brought her to him (this is the one I’m hoping for tbh, it would explain so much).
