[@quiltmomma5157]

The whole scene from him saying goodbye to their being inform was exactly how it was when my husband died. He said bye from the door, I answered bye and didn't stop what I was doing. It was just a routine day. Then it wasn't. It was a good thing there was a chair there when the officer said he's gone or I would have been on the floor. My knees buckled, I screamed and fell backwards. And like Sheldon I relive that moment and different outcomes over and over.

[@falkwulf3842]

There is a HUGE plot point that was missed George Sr. was in the Army and a Vietnam Era vet, Where is his flag? Where is the color guard?

[@quiltmomma5157]

This was a time period where veterans did not get the recognition they do today. Many veterans did not advertise the fact, as this was still a relatively short period after the "American War"'and veterans were seen as drug abusing baby killers. When George asks Tam his mother's name, we see how George spent most of his time there. Not all veterans wanted military honors. My husband was of this time period and did not want the military honors or be buried in the military cemetery.

[@vanessaverner8480]

Not everyone wants one. My ex father in law and my late father in law were both WW2 veterans. Neither of one wanted recognition.

@@tommurphy4307 Yeah.. usually if I'm going to cry at something, its usually only about real things. In retrospect, I think it was just a little too close too home that I wasn't there when my own farther passed, and the scenes they kept replaying of all the different ways he could have said goodbye, but didn't.. just got me in the feelz

[@ASDF-lw9sm]

​@@eldar9412 same here. I don't cry easily but I also cried in this episode especially on Mary's speech. Aside from the story, I think it's the acting because even though we know this is just a show, their acting made everything feel real.

[@mulqueen2023]

​@@ASDF-lw9sm I'm the exact same, it takes a lot to make me tear up but I was quietly bawling the whole way through. George was a wonderful dad, and we've been watching him for near a decade now. His death while easily predictable as the ending for this series, didn't make it hurt any less. Especially with how it wasn't even the finale, making it so much more shocking that his last scene wasn't any fanfare. It was the solid realism and the way they dealt with their grief that had me crying.

[@rodshop5897]

Lance took a character who seemed unsympathetic at first and turned him into such a lovable person that the death of George brought us to tears. I hope we get to see Lance much more in future shows.

[@sherribrtn]

I don't think I could have gotten into the casket like Lance did; kudos on totally committing to the process from start to literal finish.

It was likely a dummy with a mask made from Lance.

If it is true that When they show Sheldon and Amy in the present day and they refer to Lenard as dead, I’m DONE with the whole series, spinoffs and all! When Jim Parsons wanted out of TBBT (to make movies and Broadway shows) and the rest of the cast wanted to keep going they bent to his will, and and agreed to not to do another season. He should not get to call the shots as to any of TBBT spinoff or any of the storylines!

They didn't show Penny, Raf or Bernedett and Howard. Are they all dead too? Of course Amy was in the scene, she's his wife. This whole conspiracy thing is dumb.

For East Texas Baptists, it is very accurate.

[@AntisocialRedNeckNerd]

@@IrishBlue830 - I do not know any Baptist that believe baptism saves people, including those from East Texas. Baptism of infants is not practiced by Baptist. In the show Mary Cooper had her infant grand child baptized by the pastor. This is an example of errors in the show. . .

[@CrackerSmacker-zc5gc]

Id definitely agree with you. Baptism definitely is not what would save a person. Mary trying to "force" her two youngest kids to get baptized in water isn't what would save them from an eternity in Hell. They'd have to actually sincerely accept what was done on the cross for them and Jesus rising on the third day. After all Sheldon had the same mindset after getting dunked in water as he did before.

For me the biggest plot hole for the ending is with Tam. Tam was put on Sheldon’s enemy list for not moving to Cali with him, on TBBT. Especially since presumably Tam was only 14, (given Sheldon was 14 when his dad died) But either way, it was never mentioned to Tam.

[@johnclaybaugh9536]

On the show the family were Baptists. Baptists funerals are genuinely not black, somber and remorseful. Most people do not wear black and the sentiment is more of a pleasant "happy to be going home" thing.

Hi, May I share the most important news you will ever hear in your life? God the Father sent His holy Son Jesus Christ(Y'shua Ha' Mashiach) from heaven to earth, to be born of a virgin. He grew up and died on the cross for our sins. He was put into a tomb for 3 days, and then Abba Father raised Jesus to life and He appeared to people and went back to Heaven. We must all sincerely receive Jesus to be a true child of God. It says in John 1:12 "But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name." Will you genuinely believe on Christ Jesus and truly receive Him today, before it is too late?
