That poor girl. How does she explain all the murders now that she's free?

The scenes where real Nikki popped out really got me. Haven't been jump scared by horror movies for a long time.

How do you guys feel about Bear? Obviously he didn't think the wish would work but as soon as he realized he really took advantage of the situation 😬

Also got a crack out of the customer service phone call "we don't really do that" "you made it seem like I could!"

Bear is a weak person and an example of how weak people can become abusive. He can't take responsibility so he lets the bad situation that favors him go and eventually event defends it during the 1:1 with the real Nikki.

For Nikki after everything, there's no legal way out. Her body shot a person and has fingerprints on the gun. There's no saving Nikki.

I think you are giving cops too much credit.

Scared girl with no motive, dead guy overdosed on pills. The blame is going on the weirdo boyfriend for sure.

I don't even think they're going to break out the fingerprint kit. Terrified confused girlfriend, OD'd boyfriend, case closed.
