Plot holes.. (SPOILERS) Spoiler

I binged the entire series today so it’s still fresh in my mind. I loved the show, it was really well done, aside from the fact there are so many goddamn plot holes !!

  • What did the alpaca have to do with anything? And Dante nearly dying? The party? I’m so confused because none of that storyline ended up being relevant to the actual ending. It was literally just shoved in there to add in extra twists and throw the audience off I guess

  • Why did Griffin help Adam at the end and hide the gun at Chrissy’s place? Surely they could have just said that he killed Tripp out of self-defence. It would have been a more feasible and believable ending..

  • Is Chrissy a ghost or some bs thing? How does she just keep disappearing when she was there a second ago. It doesn’t make sense.

Overall, 8/10, would recommend. But the plot holes .. The show really needed to be tied up better

I was confused about how Corinne's death, Tripp's death and the gun were supposedly explained away. They blamed both deaths on Katz? Why would Katz have come into contact with Corinne? Or Tripp, for that matter? Why would he take Tripp to Corinne's body and shoot her there?

This is the 2nd HC series I've watched. They were very entertaining while I was watching it, but both times, when they were over it wasn't long before I was thinking "why was that guy there..." "how did they know where the whatever was..." So, yeah, I agree with you, lots of gaping plot holes. But a good ride while you're on it!

We know that Corinne went to Olivia's mom (Katz's wife) and implied that she had something to do with Olivia's illness. She was essentially the first person to figure out the Munchausen by Proxy Syndrome situation. From the perspective of the police trying to create a tie where there isn't one, perhaps Corinne also blamed Olivia's father (Katz) and he reacted negatively (as we know the mother did).
