So.....does anyone live? Seems like a silly question, I know, but Alana probably makes it, Will is a maybe, Jack likely doesn't, and the girl definitely doesn't. What a trainwreck!! That was glorious.
I'd say Will is a lock. He's the star along with Hannibal. Season 4 is supposed to be Red Dragon, and Will is pretty crucial to that. Jack is less so, but he's in that and Silence of the Lambs, and he's one of the 3 bloody faces in the credits. I'd guess one of Abigail or Alana dies. More likely Abigail since she's not a book character and it's hard to see how she fits in after this. Alana is in the books but as a lesser male character, Alan Bloom. Chilton might also still be alive. Interesting that they haven't said either way on him yet.
I can't believe what they get away with on network tv. That was a rough episode.
I'm guessing they accelerate their Book/Movie to TV timeline based on negligible ratings. They'll probably write next season to have some kind of satisfactory series finale, even if it ends up being renewed.
I honestly did not see the twist at the end coming re: his travel companion.

That was a wonderful, wonderful episode.
I don't know what the ending means. It may in fact mean nothing. It may have just been a whimsical tribute to a character the writing staff loved. But it was just great.

There seem to be two schools of thought.
1. It's ominous, since "The Best Things in Life Are Free" comes right after SC&P sells out to McCann and all the partners reap a huge windfall.
2. It means nothing other than a cool moment for veteran of musical theater Robert Morse, who was in the musical comedy version of "Mad Men", "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying", 50 years ago.

I commented on this a while ago, but she is very similar to his sister, probably the only person he ever loved.
just read a rumor on the interwebs that Christian Bale is close to being cast in the second season of True Detective, which if true would be hella badass.
Also, the second season apparently takes place in california, per Nic Pizzolato (sp)

Interview after the latest episode said Fuller's thinking six seasons now, and they still have interest outside nbc if they decide to cancel it. It was planned for 7 with 4 being Red Dragon, 5 being their version of Silence of the Lambs, 6 being Hannibal and then 7 being a new story. Now he says it's too much to draw out that long. Not sure what he's cutting. They don't have rights to Silence or the Clarice character so they'll have to change some details unless they can get those rights. He also said first episode next season will be Hannibal and his companion, and we won't found out who survived the massacre until episode 2.
The Internet is effing wild for it, but I've found Rick and Morty hit and miss. Watched one great episode, two lame ones and a decent one. May or may not watch more. The equation is ATHF + Futurama.
I hate to support a show with such a terrible title, but 'Halt and Catch Fire' looks interesting.
