IGN: Flint found Thomas, after all these years, but he’s also a prisoner now. But is being back with his true love worth it? Is that all that matters to him?

Steinberg: I think we spent a lot of time this season exploring that question. Is it enough if you are forced to give up everything but you are given the connection you’ve been seeking in order to be fulfilled – is that connection enough? I think, in some way, that question is explored a number of times in the last few episodes and we get different answers. And I don’t necessarily think that at the end of that finale those answers are fully cooked. I think they’re situations that people have chosen for themselves or have been chosen for them, in which they’re going to find out. In that moment, it’s emotionally effective I think. To see them back together again. And to see Flint in that place.

um…no? how about not? how about I ignore this with all my being because fuck that, no? And that solidifies what I have to say about John fucking Silver, may he be keelhauled a thousand times. Am I the only one that’s not ok with this?
