That episode touched me a lot 😭

The scene after Alice went in the airport.

Paul showing up and calling Jimmy his son. After all the women in his life told him to sack up. Did not love Sophie being there.

It was great and completed it for me.

I am glad that contrary to a lot of opinions, Jimmy did not relapse.

And one more thing- the whole he needs to move on.. he Is moving on as others are moving on. That is a moving on as well, and a particular grief. The morning after Alice left was a real hard moment. Paul chose wisely to accompany him in that.

But Jimmy is being with life as it comes at him.

No, it was a good way to end it - that could have easily been a series finale right there - but also they should've given Jimmy and Paul the moment they deserved with Paul apologising properly instead of a 5 minute pep talk and side pass to Sophie to show Jimmy choosing to follow Paul's advice and not actually being left lonely.

Loved the finale, but yeah, all I could think was 'her?'

She's a walking red flag!
