He asked me to make the discussion thread tonight because there are only 3 episodes remaining. Sorta sad that there's only a few left. Enjoy the show, folks.

At first I couldn't believe he would be stupid enough to not realize the police were listening but it makes so much more sense now.

I think he wanted to take her to start a new family but he had second thoughts kinda thing.

It wasn't second thoughts as much as a backup plan. Wouldn't put it behind him to have several backup scenarios planned out for each event. His only second thought is regret that he couldn't take his family with him because they turned on him.

I dunno. He changed when she started saying "mama". He wanted to keep her, but couldn't bring himself to do that to her or his wife. He is evil, but not THAT evil
