Llewellyn Watts is better than me bc after Brother's Keeper was all said and done I would've had to punch Murdoch in the face for revealing Hubert was dead by slapping a photo of his corpse down on the interrogation table

That moment when you do the math and realize Mrs. Young (Mrs. Marks? weird how she has a different last name than her kids) had to have died AT LATEST when Hubert and Daniel were only seventeen.

And here I thought that story couldn't get any sadder.....

I showed my work below the cut btw if you don't believe me

The numbers I'm using:

From 10x15 Hades Hath No Fury: "You've been living here for 5 years and you haven't looked for me?" "Mrs. Young had died. I didn't know where to start."

From 12x07 Brother's Keeper: "But [Nigel Baker] still lost four years of his life."

Also from 12x07 Brother's Keeper: "The victim was this man. Daniel Marks, 20 years old."

I'm also going by the assumption that every season spans about a year which, based on the clues we've had as to what year it is throughout the series, seems fairly accurate.

Season 12 - Season 10 = 2 seasons = 2 years

4 years in season 12 - 2 years/seasons = 2 years since Daniel's murder in season 10

5 years - 2 years = 3 years between Mrs. Young having died and Daniel's murder

20 years old - 3 years = 17 years old when Mrs. Young had died

Obviously, with Hades Hath No Fury being a later episode number than Brother's Keeper, and all these numbers being estimates, it's not like it's impossible for Daniel and Hubert to have just barely turned 18 before her death. But still.... Damn. And it seems rather unlikely, given that Clarissa would've had to return to Toronto directly after her death for that to be the case.

Hey so like. Does Clarissa know that Hubert and Daniel were killed?
