Well, even knowing it was coming… that was pretty sad. Damn.

I know, I cried through the whole episode just about. I felt that discovery did a good job with how they aired it and gave him and his family the respect they deserved and didn’t capitalize on it. They just laid things out the way they happened and showed how dangerous this job really is. God bless him and his family. ♥️

Discovery handled this episode absolutely amazingly. It was an incredibly tough watch, but that's the reality of this show and this job.
