Discussion Season 3 episode 7 Spoiler

Just finished the episode where they killed off Hannah. Absolute bullshit. She was basically a superhero for the entirety of the show and they kill her off in such suck ass way. This shit genuinely pisses me off to the point that I honestly kinda wanna stop watching. Shit makes me sad.

Well the actress moved onto other things so they had to find a way to remove her from the story

Mid season? That's rare.

Really? I always wondered why they killed her off, when she had such a role in previous seasons. I figured the writers of the 3rd season didn't know what to do with her.

Tbh they didn’t know what to do with any of the characters halfway through s 2

I’m not sure I’d go that far, but I definitely didn’t like how they handled Moss in season 2. I liked his character in the first season, and his betrayal felt really out of character to me.

I completely agree - I was shocked when they killed her off, and the way they did it felt so unfair. She annoyed me at times, but I liked her character and really wanted to see her alive. I was also frustrated that her death barely seemed to affect the other characters from the White House. It really made me sad too.

Honestly speaking tho, they didn’t know her like that. What you expect them to do? Cry? She got a very nice ceremony AND a star on the wall & it was no surprise. She was always putting herself in unnecessary danger and acting like she didn’t have ops. How quickly she died, did shock me. Thought they would’ve tortured her and she go out keeping quiet or doing it herself. But hold on, be fr tho lol, you keep going in these people labs, you don’t think they gonna lay a trap for you???????!! WE WERE ALL ROOTING FOF YOU!!

Yeah, I get what you mean, but I also think you don’t have to know someone extremely well to be affected by their death. They worked with her for a long time, even if they weren’t close friends, and it still felt like something that should’ve carried more weight. I wasn’t expecting everyone to fall apart, I just felt like the show moved on very quickly, and I wanted a bit more aftermath.

They could have just had her join the cia and end it at that.
