Is this show really more indebted toThe Dark Towerthan anything else?

One even contained a writer named Stephen King.

(Isnt that kind of poignantly sweet given the action of The Queen?)

This Matthew Deaver survived he wasnt killed by Molly Strand and his descent into madness continued.

In this reality, Henry comes home after learning that Matthew killed himself.

The young version of the character weve come to know as Henry Deaver.

The kid who disappeared almost thirty years ago.

Stick with me, here.

It explains why he had no frostbite when he suddenly appeared on Castle Lake.

In the confusion, the alternate Zalewski (and wasnt it nice to see him again?)

shoots that version of Molly, explaining The Kids confusing line about seeing her die in the woods.

What does this mean, and what does it say aboutCastle Rock?

Which Henry Deaver is therightHenry Deaver, and can the Kid version of Henry return to his universe?

There are still a great deal of questions to be answered by the season finale.

Why didnt Henry 2 tell this story earlier?

Why did he look so catatonic and downright dangerous every time he appeared?

That might make sense.

Perhaps when these realities break, it allows evil to take shape in those who travel between them.

Dont forget, J.J. Abrams is a producer here.

And now weve come full circle.

Or the fact that Thomas Newman, the 14-time Oscar nominee, composed the opening theme.

Newmans first Oscar nomination?

It was forThe Shawshank Redemption.

What was I saying about circles?

Maybe these characters will be expanded upon in future seasons.

How on Earth could they wrap this up with only one more episode?

What do you expect from the finale?

Will Henry 2 return to his world?
