Ryan spends his final appearance in court avoiding Marissa's gaze, not worrying about the outcome. He knows he's not going to jail. Sandy wouldn't let that happen, and besides - it's the villain that's gone, right?

When he finally gets back to the pool house, he thanks Sandy, then sits gently on the edge of the bed and stares out at the water like he did that first morning after his mom kicked him out, like he is waiting for a tsunami to rise up and swallow him whole.

Like anything that beautiful must have something angry underneath it.
