'Briarpatch' Episode 10: Gene Colder and not Allegra will kill Brattle, say fans as finale approaches
The viewers who complained of an abundance of uncertainty on ‘Briarpatch’ were thrilled upon watching the last few episodes, which finally revealed Gene Colder (Brian Geraghty) to be Felicity Dill’s (Michele Weaver) murderer.
It wasn’t just a better clarification on what went down in Saint Banificio that struck fans, but the sudden flip in Colder’s character, which paints him as a twisted police officer. While he went unnoticed as a nerd and a submissive husband to a capricious wife, as a bomber and Jake Spivey’s (Jay R Ferguson) potential killer, he has managed to acquire a pivotal role in the narrative.
With only an episode left until USA Network draws the curtain on its thriller drama, fans are of an opinion that Colder will yet again surprise us with a side to his persona which was least expected and still not seen.
While some feel he would emerge a bigger threat to Allegra Dill (Rosario Dawson) and Jake, taking into consideration Brattle’s influence on him, a few Reddit users have noted that he would be the one to off Brattle and not Felicity’s sister.
This theory makes sense to a certain extent as Colder did not receive what he expected from Brattle; be it in terms of the ransom or respect. Should he be at the end of his tether, the police officer is highly capable of acting against Brattle, even if that poses a threat to his own life.
“Also am I only one who thinks Colder may off Brattle? Colder’s the spiteful, need of vindication type who may feel its needed,” wrote one fan.
Meanwhile, pointing at Colder’s odd behavior and highly confusing personality, another fan wrote, “I knew Colder was corrupt and now his actions make sense as well. Colder's such a mess because he's deluded himself basically into believing Felicity loved him and couldn't handle letting her go at all.”
‘Briarpatch’ has surprises written all over it. After teasing us with numerous possibilities all along its course, it’s very likely of it to have something bigger planned for the season finale.
However, we can tell is Colder would be the one to steal the show only after watching the finale episode of Season 1 of ‘Briarpatch’ which will air on April 13 on USA Network.
