‘glorious evolution’

Uh, look

Okay, let’s count the ways Act 3 drummed home Silco’s dedication to Jinx (in a really twisted way). 

1.) Doesn’t take it personally when Jinx tortured him a little

2.) Has to be drugged by Singed because even Singed knows Silco could never watch Singed do what is necessary to Jinx

3.) Reaction of horror when he sees injured Jinx

4.) Stares down Vi on the bridge as he carried Jinx off

5.) Desperate to save Jinx’s life

6.) Willing to listen to and take actual useful advice from Sevika to give Jinx some space/makes an attempt to trust his relationship with Jinx

7.) Was ready to turn himself in to jail in Jinx’s place when he makes a deal with Jayce

8.) Has faith that Jinx is strong enough to survive the procedure. 

9.) Threatens Singed with a knife when he wakes up and doesn’t know what happened to Jinx

10.) Finally starts to have more sympathy for Vander, the man he hates because of how he feels about Jinx vis a vis how Vander felt about his daughters

11.) Fiercely sides with Jinx’s new identity, the one that Jinx sends up deciding it the real her/is more the real her

12.) Credibly says that he would have turned down Jayce’s proposal because he would never turn her over

13.) Struggles desperately to free himself and shoots at VI imo arguably because yes he is also “competing” with Vi, but also because it appears Vi’s words are hurting Jinx

14.) His words are the ones that echo with her as she does her first big dramatic deed as Jinx (imo kind of like Vander’s “You have a good heart” ended up informing Vi’s journey, Silco’s “We’ll show them all” is that for Jinx’s journey)

15.) Oh right USING HIS DYING WORDS TO COMFORT THE PERSON WHO KILLED HIM

BTW, it’s one of those irony things that at least one of the things Jinx accused him of, that he knew all along that Vi was alive wasn’t true. He really wasn’t lying to her about that, Marcus had told him that Vi was dead. However, the other part of Jinx’s complaint that he tried to keep Vi and Jinx apart after he found out about Vi being alive is still true.
