It will be ok!! I left season 11 feeing so cheated, and had little hopes for season 12. What actually happened is that season 12 have us a ton of material, the fluffiest macdennis moments since Flowers for Charlie, and now we have lots more fodder for season 13! For one, Mandy doesn't "want" Dennis - this is great, we shouldn't see a relationship develop there. Dennis could never make it to the airport, he could chicken out, Mandy's plane could crash, or they could write off this plot entirely
yeah i see what you’re saying. i think for me there’s two big main causes for concern:
the fact that dennis leaving doesn’t seem to be plot driven decision so much as a “glenn wants to do other things” decision.. idk that doesn’t sit well with me
that certain things in the episode were Very Bad like waitress and charlie, really charlie’s entire characterisation tbh, the complete lack of reaction from any of the gang at dennis leaving, dennis not saying a proper goodbye to anyone????, the way mac and dennis’ relationship was handled, i mean the list really goes on
i appreciate your message tho and you’re entirely right about this season giving us a lot of great character growth and in general happy, heartwarming scenes (hero or hate crime through to the gang tends bar in particular here). i think it’s also true that yes they have left it very open and it’s not beyond the realms of possibility for dennis to not actually leave permanently
