Welcome to the Heavy Spoilers show, I'm your host Paul and with us now being past the half way point of The Undoing, I think things are slowly all starting to fit into place.
The episode does clear up the big cliffhanger from last week, however it also makes it seem like something else could be going on that could indeed tie into it.
Now when we last left Grace she was being shown the CCTV footage that placed her next to where Elena's body lay. Though in any other investigation she would be one of the prime suspects, the police let her go without asking too many questions.
Grace states that she was simply having a walk at the time and the officers take her at her word.
This shows that they're putting all their eggs in one basket and completely overlooking the fact that Grace could have carried it out. In addition to this Elena's husband also had the motive to and I think this sole focus on Johnathan will actually cause issues in the case as they clearly didn't exhaust all options.
Now though it could be possible that Grace is actually the one who carried out the murder, however this is another options entirely that we haven't discussed yet.
On our last video, youtube user LA Musings said that Grace may have not committed the murder but she could have indeed came across Johnathan carrying it out.
This comment really piqued my interest and the more I've thought about it the more I've thought that LA Musings could indeed be right.
The user went on to say:
What she is blanking out is not that she committed the murder, but that she witnessed him committing it and her mind cannot accept the man she loves is a monster. Despite her background and skills in psychology, she literally could not see the truth.
Now this of course ties in with her patient from the first episode who discussed her own husband and the issues in their marriage. Grace was very quick to say that the patients problem was that she was unable to see her husband for what he truly was and I think Grace herself is indeed showing signs of this too.
From what we've seen in these four episodes, she's very prone to hallucinations and we learn that she also goes on walks to ground herself. It's a phrase that often comes with the idea that the person doing this is trying to get back in touch with reality and thus they must collect their own thoughts which Grace likely does on her walks.
So we have this motif that Grace is indeed prone to slip into certain fantasies and that she may also block things out could cause her dream life to fall apart.
I definitely think that this could be what happened in the show but there are of course other things that we have to discuss.
Now another big suspect was Franklin, however I think this episode pretty much confirms what we said last week. We did say that it would make no sense for him to kill Elena and not Johnathan and this episode he also pays for his bail. In addition to this he pointed the family in the direction of their attorney so for me it just doesn't line up.
We see a much darker side to him this episode and he pretty much threatens the headmaster and calls himself a...a coc...I can't even say it bro that bit killed me.
Franklin admits to being unfaithful to Grace's mother and we'll go into this in more detail later in the video.
Now whilst this shows the character in a new light, he tells Johnathan that he thinks he killed Elena which I don't think he would say if he had done it himself.
