I also felt that his death/character was treated very harshly... Especially considering he wasn't involved with the bond between Jo and Adam... That really could have made him feel left out, (which Adams distaste for him didn't help) which could have lead to his cheating... (obviously I am not condoning what he did) I just kinda felt his character was created just for adam to hate and that's it... his character could have been developed a bit more... I think it would have been interesting if Adam had a decent relationship with him That would have caused more turmoil within adam after finding out that he cheating on his mom. Instead, his cheating just proved Adam right.ciecheesemeister wrote: ↑06 Feb 2020, 19:39 Mark seemed like a weak character (his cheating and gaslighting his wife) but I thought his death was a bit harsh. Perhaps it was supposed to illustrate that Adam had gained the ability to feel remorse, even about the death of a person whom he had a contentious relationship with.

Yes, when finally Adam came to his senses and thought that he needs to deal properly with his father, he was killed off. The author wasted a huge subplot to carelessly killing Adam's father.Nym182 wrote: ↑07 Feb 2020, 13:55I also felt that his death/character was treated very harshly...

It seemed like the only reason for killing him was to give Adam something to feel regret about... maybe trying to show how much he has changed?
I wasn't a fan of it though...

Yes, there was absolutely no point in Adam's father dying and I can't understand his point. It was shown time and Again that Adam's father loved him but in spite of that he was killed off like an unused potential.
