I'm legit sobbing. I had such high hopes for the Sam and Mary dynamic this season and it's just turning out to be another tragedy. Breaks my heart
I think it is... if not a tragedy then something like, right, because I can definitely make sense in my head that part of the reason Mary finds it more difficult to relate to Sam is the way that she feels about what happened when he was a baby. He keeps reaching out to her and she keeps deflecting - and it makes sense to me that she feels bad about not having addressed this issue (and they keep being sort-of confronted by it - with that person on the ceiling in ‘Asa Fox’, with the yellow-eyed demon in ‘Stuck in the Middle’), is too scared to bring it up with Sam as she doesn’t know how much he knows about it, and then doesn’t feel comfortable being sort of close and friendly with him when she knows that’s hanging between them. You could argue that’s still on her (tho obviously she didn’t know what she was signing up for when she made the deal), but it does make sense to me.
