There's enough time to reveal one of them and then end the ep with whoever's sent to mess with Elenor.

It would be a little cheesy for them to go through the whole "Chidi doesn't remember anything" when that was a big part of his character arc this season.

Could they have had Chidi tape a message to himself that lets him in on the plan and who his friends are?

She did not, she let them modify their memories though if it would interfere with the experiment, and gave them extra time before the next two get brought in.

Gotta say, I was disappointed in that ep. We just did the "Eleanor loves Chidi, but can't tell him" arc. It better be resolved in the season premiere.

Michael Schur make the seasons.

At this point I'm along for the ride instead for speculating on the future.

The finale's Eleanor/Chidi screening was one of the more bittersweet things I've seen in recent years.Simone's actress was a wonderful addition to the show, and Michael McKean as Doug was great casting. D'Arcy Carden was a under-utilized in the first season, but got to flex a bit in season 2 and was brilliant in this season.

My biggest misgiving is with Jason. Manny Jacinto delivered some of the funniest lines of the season perfectly, but the writing for his character hasn't really gone anywhere. His inherent obliviousness seems to have restricted the character from getting much depth compared to the rest of the cast. The rest of the characters have gotten to let their guard down one time or another, but Jason doesn't really have that guard to drop. I just don't want him to get stale, cause he's so loving funny.

Hi, I just binged the poo poo out of this show and it's amazing. I about lost it at the "Slavery, Limp Bizkit." "Solid rebuttal..." line.

Partway through the season, I was thinking the show was going downhill, but I'm all aboard again; the last few episodes (and particularly the finale) have been on point. Some of the Chidi/Eleanor scenes in this episode were the most impressed I've been by sad romance onscreen in years, and earlier in the season I'd thought that plotline was weak and dragging the show down. Really looking forward to season four in the fall. Awesome show! :)

I was really hoping this season that Simone wouldn't die and show up, it paints a very sad picture for anyone on Earth or the dot in the i who knew her, or especially both of them. Serious boyfriend breaks it off and disappears with no warning, dies in a mystery accident in canada, then she dies later. Aw, and they had all reconciled with family, too, I hadn't thought about the effect that had on those survivors

Happy offseason everyone!

obviously what happened is the demons used the secret door they made to get to earth and killed whomever they needed

'whom' is correct grammatically, yeah?

The episode was a little underwhelming for me, I'd led myself to expect something bigger from the title perhaps.

I kind of hope the Bad Place got Simone killed somehow since an accident feels cheap plot-wise and depressing in general, though I am also glad that she will be back on the show. Whereas that other guy? I know it's the point but he better not hang around long.
