Lockdown Ramblings

Finn’s only been dead a month but now it’s like he never even existed. How hard is it to mention him? How hard is it for Vic to say how happy Finn would’ve been to see her adopting? Or for Adam to say how much Finn would’ve wanted to meet Isaac? Or for someone to suggest Isaac have the middle name Finn? Or for Tracy to say “at times like this I ask myself what would Finn do”? How hard is it for the villagers to reference him? Everybody’s going on about Emma’s death and who killed her but no one can reference the horrific and unfair murder of her son? What’s the point of a shocking death if there’s no aftermath? What’s the point of SSW if it has no real emotional impact on the village?

The only reason I can think of why they’ve erased Finn and his death from the show is because they’re planning on having Chrissie kill Lachlan, and since they’re doing the ‘mother kills her son’ story twice in 3 months they have to act like the first story didn’t happen to minimise how repetitive it is. If that isn’t true then the aftermath of Finn’s death is simply pathetic storytelling.

This makes sense👏🏼

they literally throw salt in the wound by having tracy call about having a date for Finn while he’s out in the cold darkness bleeding out. As the audience, this was an actually shock moment to see that the person who in fact got shot was Finn but as someone invested in the characters and seeing yet another lgbtqa character get dealt such a shitty hand, I’m just left feeling bitter. Finn may not have been everyone favorite character but I always thought he had so much potential. Joe is brilliant, I just thought he deserve more and so did Finn.
