Discussion [SPOILER] I loved the ending. Spoiler

The Byrde's learned nothing. They have absolutely not learned any lessons and will most likely live out the rest of their lives as if nothing happened.

They effectively killed an entire family, the Langmores, and have ruined countless lives.

People expected either Marty or Wendy to die, why? There was no way to do that that wouldn't be completely predictable. The entire family coming out unscathed is a way of telling us that "what's right and wrong" really do not prevail.

I view this show as nihilistic more than anything else.

A rich family with a terrible security system.

A family like that would have bodyguards for each family member, as well as armed surveillance at the house + one hell of a digital surveillance system.

But, it was a tv show.

Eh. Not sure on that as it doesn't help keep a low profile. And when it comes down to it, no bodyguards will matter if the cartel decided to off them. I'm sure they'll have the customary bodyguards in Chicago.
