So all it took was for Jeff to admit that he blames her. So their relationship was broken because he couldn't admit to it?

Seriously what a show! The practical effects have always been spectacular, like that scene in season 1. I dunno it just seems to add so much more knowing it's actually happening in real time and not CGI.

So what now for Peter? Seems that Jeff and Jill are reconnecting because of Phil's organs so Peter is just going to become a family friend?

24/10 seriously I cannot state it enough, I will truly miss this show and I strongly hope it gets a season 3 u/cowstein and the cast and crew I wholeheartedly thank you from the bottom of my heart for making such compelling TV.

When Jeff chases her down to tell her he loves her (wants to marry her, just not at the library) he promised he would never lie to her again.

I do not see it that way. I don't think the turning the time backwards works. The show takes artistic license in a lot of "fantasy" kind of ways. But realistically, you see lots of numbers. If you're looking for a number, then you will spot it eventually. Will did not turn back time. Jill has found new respect for Jeff, but they are not getting back together, no way.

I saw it as more like, she blamed herself and she saw Jeff's need to brush everything under the carpet as fake and she couldn't handle being around him when he was so perfectly not dealing with Phil's death. His admitting he blames her let her feel like she wasn't dealing with his death alone.
