Really good job on production of these.

Also, what was in the syringe?

[Goldenrod636]

I didn't see Ben on the show, but I did know that he was Billy's nephew and Fletcher's adoptive son.

@Goldenrod636 He actually wasn't Billy's nephew. Ben's real father was Kyle Sampson. At one time everyone thought that Kyle and Billy were brothers, but it later came out that they were not. It's little confusing so it's easy to think that. In the syringe was some kind of diabetic fluid. Ramona, who we was having an affair with was a diabetic so he would take her shots and use that to kill his victims.

@Spauldingfield I thought that t was proven that both Billy and Kyle shared the same biological mother? (Sally Gleason, who slept with both HB before he married Martha, Josh and Trish's mother and Kyle's father John Malone?)

Things become clear for me at last!!! ^^

Thank U so much!!

I watched some vids and I didn't understand the roles of the two girls: Marah and Marina. I thought they changed the actress^^, but it's a different story with Marina!

OMG! He was a serial killer! What can "redeem" him is his tormented childhood and his true feelings for both girls.

He played some kind of tragic hero....

LOVE Matt Bomer!!<3

@idoles4ever They actually recast both roles, but yes Marah and Marina are two different people.

LOVED it.

I didn't realize how much young Ben and even Baby Ben really looked like he could have grown up to look like grown up Ben. Good casting.

Love your character profilers. Ben was one of the most destroyed characters with all that awful serial killer nonsense. I liked Ben-Marina and I enjoyed the part of Ben -Marah where they talked about how their parents life choices effected their lives. Ben shouldn't have left Marina the money though. Apparently she blew through it in a couple of years.In the end though Ben's was a heroic death in his own way. He gave up his life, to save Marina more pain.

@Robansuefarm I think I read somewhere that Marina gave the money to charity.
