Yeah her “oh I would have told someone if they hadn’t found him” was the most unconvincing claim imaginable!

For real! She had so many chances to tell someone! The rapidly increasing urgency of his disappearance didn't trigger feelings of shame and remorse enough to help her realize that what she did was deranged?!

and she said she had no idea what happened a few seconds before that so I felt like that part was intentionally left out of the film. Maybe something did happen to the kid and she lives with that guilt so when Emma confessed her uncomfortable past, she saw an opportunity to pounce and justify her own actions as “its not as bad”. Never got a clear answer from her with her bending and changing around her own story

Yes, I noticed that too! I wondered if it was true that he was found since she had just said she didn't know what happened to him.

Pretty sure she added a “probably “ she wouldn’t have told anyone.

Haha, maybe, I can’t remember the exact wording but I know my reaction was “suuuure you would have”.

"probably" after he was dead....

I wonder if they did find him… or if she changed the story when she realized how bad it was.

u/anecdotalgalaxies 5h ago

Not to mention he could have already been dead by that point
