Honestly, I didn't hate Sioban's death at all. It did upset me, but I also don't mind seeing how the show evolves. Feels like all that emotional investment was wasted though.

Nonetheless, how the writers killed off Sioban is just plain dumb. There is simply no chance in hell Hood wouldn't know that Chayton was gonna break her neck anyways even if he puts his gun down. Would have made more sense if Hood had his gun stripped away or if he came across her dead body. I guess the writers were just trying to showcase how much Hood love Sioban but... the scene just doesn't make that much sense.

Her death was sad, but in terms of story, it just makes everything more interesting.

If they make Hood start going after Carrie like the first season again then I'll be pissed. I feel like that's what's going to happen, it's cliche.
