4/5!! omg it had the perfect mixture of sad, happy, spice, and character bonding. sage is just a misunderstood girl who would sacrifice anything and herself for the ones she loved and rook. rook, poor baby. hes the type to drown in guilt. but together they help each other overcome their difficulties. sage finds a family. and friends, ones that are not fake and she finally blooms into someone rosie could be proud of. but silas. im worried for silas. hes going out of control. if he ever just decides to kill everyone of ponderosa springs, i wouldnt even be mad. if he ever decides to become a villian, he would have every right to. the day rosemary died is the day he died. they didnt just kill one person off for s.x trafficking, they killed rosemary and silas along the way. i feel so bad for him tho. omg my poor sweet baby.
