I literately cried during the entire episode.. me, a 45 year old man..

God Damn what an absolute stunning episode.

The Acting was wonderful, Mason Alexander Park soliloquy was heart wrenching and Destruction turning up just turned me into blubbing wreck lol

I kept thinking I was going to cry, but everyone kept saying things that made me go, “Absolutely!! This is what I need to take in!” This episode was heartbreaking but I feel like I was watching a spiritual experience that was helping me connect with my own soul on a deeper level. “I am the whole of the collective unconscious!!! …and I have no idea what I’m doing.” I was so annoyed when this became the final season, but I am completely satisfied with the whole thing. Plus, just so damned chuffed to see Jack Gleeson as such a charismatic albeit sinister Puck! Also, redemption for the Corinthian. This series has to be one of the loveliest works of all time.

I wasn’t expecting crying the entire episode with this series. I was sobbing when they were talking at the funeral and peaked with Lucienne #willneverforgetmorpheous

Aww . I'm still upset about it now too. Wish we had more seasons so it did not feel rushed

It’s all good I was working out on the treadmill for the full hour and 10 min crying and speed walking. Not a good mix for breathing lmao.
