I don't think she knew what he was talking about. I don't believe he told her about 1973. I'm pretty sure that if he'd actually told her, she would *not* have affirmed his need to keep that promise.
Agreed. I meant it was interesting that the writers chose to keep her in the dark. Maybe interesting isn't what I mean. It's more like, I thought it was curious that the ending wasn't balanced between the two worlds. I thought we should have had someone up on that roof trying to stop him (Maya), or that his mom should have been more, "You didn't go somewhere, you were in a coma. You don't owe anyone anything." I was trying to say that I agree they were sloppy with their storytelling there. If there were people telling him to stay, it would have made his struggle more difficult and his decision even darker.
(I actually sort of like the Sam/Annie ship, but I've always felt there was this weird, unhealthy edge to it.) I like Sam/Annie too, but aside from the fact that she repeatedly keeps him in 1973, it's strange to ship Sam/his own mind. Anyway you ship Sam it's a little bent, because it just means that Sam is in love with himself.
I like that she's a very dark character wrapped up in a golden package.
