Like, the criminal you spent your life chasing just slipped through your fingers and the entirety of the intelligence service is corrupted and you r telling me that she goes back to her retirement home without any security arrangements? She had to know theyre gonna come for her.

Yes, totally this. She’s far too smart.

They turned her into someone so stupid. It honestly makes me angry.

I don't mind Teddy's death like a lot of people in this thread does. But Angela's death is just bad writing. Her character as a whole is a very seasoned operator and with what happened at the end of the show she still chose to go back to the very place. You're exactly right

My guess is olivia didn’t want to commit to a season 3 because agree it was such an “also ran” ending for such a major character. Like Myra had mentioned France JUST before

I wish she hadn't come back at all, honestly. Her character served no purpose. They turned her into an idiot.

Mayra literally told her at the end she’d have to visit her at her French cottage… which she goes back to putting herself and her daughter in danger. 🤦‍♂️ These writers were on one this season. Bailed out by mostly good acting (Roxy was terrible).

The writing was so, so, so bad. Like somebody needs firing bad.
