Then the mystery is over and there is no reason to read EP8. Detective mysteries dont end this way, not without one final dénouement by the detective of the series. Not without one final twist that spins everything under a new light. Of course you could argue that everything from EP5 last scenes till episode 8 are that but thats a long winded one
. Or that this isn't a detective novel at all and just a estranged love story.
Im just one of those that wont take anything at face value, I try to find every little detail, how It could be spun differently under a different perspective. How it could be used to anticipate something later or how it could be a herring, never discarding the possibility of anything to the very end.
Like the idea of Battler simply forgetting something causes all of this or at least Beatrice wanting to seek him out. If this was following the standard mold of detective novels this wouldn't happen not because it involves a love story, but because people just dont forget anything in them. Everyone has photographic memory, no matter how minute the thing was, they'll remember it. If they tell you something contrary to the evidence it wasn't because they forgot, its because they lied to you.
