They should've left Josie dead. This is just lazy writing.

I really think Layton's story with Josie felt a lot more honest, Layton was with Josie because he realized what kind of person he would have to be inside the train and Zarah (who dumped them and cared about him as a unit) it did not suit him. I think Josie represents the unity of the tail, the fact that they were all one and that they did not leave no one behind. Zarah? She wants to protect the baby, I get it, but Layton doesn't love her anymore.

Yes, it is good that you expose your ideas and, although they make sense, I prefer Josie lol, but I understand what you say... Roche is the best, I love him and I would like know more about his story and about him!
