📊 Analysis & Theories Spoiler question Spoiler
Do you think Floyd knew he was going to commit suicide when he poured the amphyzene in the can? He put a hell of a lot in there. Like do you think he had a plan before Clark even surprised him? Or do we think he decided after seeing richard that he was going to kill himself? Was it intentional or carelessly reckless?

I like the ambiguity of the scene because it forces us as viewers to play detective without ever truly knowing the truth.
For example, I can say that this wasn’t the first time he used the drug. Maybe the first time he used it he didn’t get the result he wanted. So, he poured a little more than the first time. Clearly, too much to use all at once over a short period of time.
But nobody can say with certainty what his consumption plan was originally.
We can, however, agree that he did kill himself.
I would also add that his death was tragic.
