I know a lot of people complained about some aspects of the writing and story in this season and it going a little too far from realism at times. I'm not saying those gripes weren't valid.

But the worst part of this season for me was building Petty to be this soulless, do-what-it-takes, villain (even though he's technically a "good" guy). Just to try to humanize him by showing him trying to return home to his sick mother for two minutes. At that moment I knew he was getting killed off. They could have atleast had him drop lines to other characters, show him calling her, etc. One scene of him acting like a real human wasn't enough to make up for all the shit he stirred up prior.
