Wentworth | Season 8 Part 2: Episode 19, The Reckoning

Ann has literally lost her marbles. Even the Freak is looking more normal than Ann. Following that Judy Bryant torture scene. WOW! 

OK so here is to the second final, EVER episode!

Top dog, Lou (Kate Box), rallies the inmates against Rita (Leah Purcell), creating tension amongst H Block. Ann (Jane Hall) forces Vera’s (Kate Atkinson) hand when she lashes out at Judy (Vivienne Awosoga).

Ferguson (Pamela Rabe) ends up in court. However she randomly pleas guilty. So life in prison, or does she think Lou will pull off an escape? With The Freak following?

Rita and Lou's power struggle continued. However I am getting tired of Rita's storylines which never really go anywhere. The dead cop? Her being a cop? Why she never wears teal? Anyway...

Righting her wrongs with a moment of redemption, Marie (Susie Porter) takes a stand. Sharing a tender scene with Allie (Kate Jenkinson). Little did we (or Allie) know this would be her swan song.

Throughout the episode 19, Ruby (Rarriwuy Hick) & Marie clashed over where loyalties lie. The pair have history, Ruby’s reservations are logical, but the team-up potential is appealing. Besides, it wouldn’t be the first time two enemies put their differences aside to take on a greater threat.

However at the end of the episode following Sheila and Reb, another main character has bitten the dust. So will Gary Sweet stop the bomb next week? Will Ann go even more bat shit crazy? What will Vera, Jake and Grace get up to?

I just want Will to get a happy ending too. It was heartbreaking seeing him so upset over Marie's destined death.

While I have loved the series, it really does need to wrap up next Tuesday evening. I am exciting for it. But in all honestly it's run i's course. The Freak returning from "the dead" was a bridge a little too far in the end.

Also whats Franky & Bridget up to?
