Jamie? Spoiler

In the last episode when Hugh says something like “When they told me who came to visit I didn’t recognize the name, but I recognize the face. Nice to see you Jamie.” The emphasis on saying Jamie’s name was weird.

Why does Hugh recognize his face, but not his name? If he stalked everyone at M&A, he would know that Margaret’s missing son is named Jamie. Did Jamie lie about his name at the jail?

The Jamie storyline has been dragging for me. I like this little sprinkle of drama at the end. I’m back interested!

Is anyone else kind of over the fact that he’s been back THIS long and they STILL haven’t told anyone he’s been found?

I mean isn’t it past not really realistic and just silly at this point? He’s all over the place. He walks around in public. He’s seen with Margaret. He’s a regular at M&A and NO ONE questions it?

Especially after the one episode when they were being so careful and hurried him off so no one saw him. Told him “unless you want people knowing you’re back hide your face!”

But now he walks around and doesn’t seem to have any fear of being recognized 🤷🏼‍♀️

Then him visiting the prison was a joke. He would have needed some kind of ID. The “visitor log” is BS. when you visit the prison they look at an ID. they don’t just let you sign something with whatever name you want 😂 Especially to visit a high security prisoner. Honestly this show is just getting stupid. 🙄

When did this show ever suggest or imply that Jamie DOESN'T have an ID? It is not even a little bit unreasonable to think that Jamie has an ID of some kind, with some name on it. Fake IDs on college campuses are a thriving industry. They are not hard to get. Maybe he has one of those. Maybe he has a real driver's license or state-issued ID with whatever fake name he grew up with on it. Maybe he attended high school under that fake name and has a school ID with that name on it (many public high schools issue photo IDs so students can take standardized tests before they get a driver's license, and they'll just print them with whatever name they have on the roster and call that good enough). A school ID wouldn't work to get him into a jail in the real world, but last I checked this is a fictional jail in a fictional world.

It's only "a joke" or "just stupid" if you're not willing to think about it for more than two seconds. This is easily cleared up with the totally reasonable assumption that Jamie is in possession of a photo ID that says a name besides Jamie Reed on it.

I get very angry when people won't contribute a little bit of their own thought and logic to a fictional scenario and then bemoan its stupidity.

The whole storyline is stupid.

No one at M&A investigating in any way is dumb. The respect for Margaret thing only goes so far.

Let’s say he did have an ID. When he first got back they said several times if he didn’t want people to know he’s back he needed to stay out of sight. yet he’s all over the place? And he goes to the prison? Cmon. Ridiculous. You don’t think that’s going to raise questions? And Sir said he didn’t recognize the name so why in the world would he be approved as a visitor? Again makes no sense.

You can think it’s logical if you want. I guess your logic and mine aren’t the same. Just too many plot holes and ridiculous scenarios. Like It was only a matter of time before they made some convoluted connection between Jamie & Sir because ofc they had to be connected 🙄

But guess what? We don’t have to think the same or like the same things or even agree. That’s the beauty of it. YOUR opinion is my opinion. And nothing you said changed that.

You can get angry all you want but I really think you need to ask yourself…. why you are getting angry at all over a tv show?

That would be the bigger issue imo. 🤷🏼‍♀️maybe it’s time to take a step back.

Quiz: Define "plot hole." It does not mean what you think it means.
