THE MAGICIANS | Season 4, Episode 13: In Memory Of Quentin Coldwater

#TheMagicians #QuentinColdwater #TakeOnMe

[@wilsonwoman3]

You know why this scene hits us so hard? Because Quentin IS us. We've all dreamed of being the main character. Of slipping into our favorite fantasy worlds. Of learning magic. Quentin wasn't the main character...he was the READER. He was all of us. So this scene...it's like WE died. WE are watching OUR friends, our loved ones, mourn us. And we are saying goodbye.

[@wyattking4551]

This is very accurate for me

[@King_cole1990]

That hit home.

[@Joreel]

Never has a truer truth been spoken. Quentin was the inner child in all of us who dreamed of being more than we could be and found those dreams in the books we'd read. Also he got to see that his life really did make a difference and that he touched the lives of those closest to him. In the end isn't that what we all want, to know that what we did made a difference to someone and that all the hard work, the pain and suffering, the joy and happiness we experienced was worth it in the end.

[@scottwebb7477]

This scene broke my soul

[@lightwiz]

Let's take a moment to remember, that Quentin and Eliot spent an entire life together and raised a child with each other.

[@colecameron3318]

Peaches and plums is my favorite part of the whole show

[@WardNightstone]

and until this moment Q wasn't sure they had saved Elliot

[@catedoge3206]

Real

[@drewwhelchel1394]

I cry every time I watch this.

[@ryanabate1981]

Alice and Elliot holding hands is such an unspoken moment. They both knew and didn't have to say a word.

[@FFloof]

Can we talk about how happy he looks when Q sees Eliot doing ok

[@suzieengehagen9697]

😭♥️

[@jessiemichaelis4724]

I'm crying 😭

[@lumberluc]

He spent a good 70 years with him in the past. Of course he would be thrilled his lover is doing awesome.

[@111Jabberwocky]

Oh yes we can!!!

[@veronicabeers8509]

I ugly cry every time I watch that part

[@gianaoftheeasternrebellion1169]

The second Eliot comes and sings Q gets so expressive. To this day the death scene, Q’s worry about his reasons for sacrifice and this scene trip me up.

[@ericgrossberg6178]

3 years later and I still cry every time I watch this scene.

[@butterrflying]

Oh same, I'm sobbing, it's been 4 years, why is it still hitting me just the same 💔

[@ericgrossberg6178]

Just rewatched and cried again

[@butterrflying]

@@ericgrossberg6178 come, let's cry together this time

[@Joreel]

Because we related to the characters and like them we felt the loss as if it was our own.

[@catedoge3206]

Same

[@lizasaakadze5411]

That stupid peach made me cry my eyes out.

[@sheritapresley6345]

I don't care how many times I've watched Quentin die and the goodbye, i start crying as soon as i hit play.

[@fazmuz86]

Me watching Spider-Man train scene after he saves them

[@lizanderson9]

Every time! And I cry even harder when El comes into the scene because of the love they shared

[@coconutsharksinthewater4728]

i came here to say exactly that

[@ManpreetSingh-kd4jb]

Same here dear..

[@Network-yp8de]

This show was one of things me and my Mom bonded over. I remember she bought me Eliot's key necklace. We would talk about it for hours, theories and what we liked about the characters and whatnot. She passed March 10th, 2023, I didn't get to say goodnight to her, and by the time she passed, I stopped watching this show. I totally forgot about this episode, and now that I'm watching it it kinda feels like I can say goodbye to her-- She was my Quentin. Goddamn this show.

[@cynm2821]

❤

[@kindcaring3913]

I understand this this made me cry my ex ww still loved eachother very much but he was with his child so I left it alone but I wish I would’ve took him he was killed August 2023 and it’s been hitting me hard this is the hardest I’ve ever taken someone passing away and it’s almost like I get to say goodbye through this ending and I’m trying to accept our ending but it’s like someone stabs me over and over thinking about him and I feel numb

[@CherryBerry689]

I swear I started weeping the second Hale starts singing

[@nexelray3207]

UniversePunyverse I love that song, tears were forming in my eyes while they were singing.

[@artisan8924]

Tears were shooting out of my body like bullets 20 minutes before that wtf

Same, I just can’t control myself

[@jcnextgeneration]

This Death and Scene had been stuck in my head for the past couple of days. I’m not okay with this, I Just can’t be.

[@bigbangattack97]

that's life and that's why it's so awful

[@stinkingyeti]

Honestly it hit me pretty damn hard too. Some personal shit for me was just a bit too close, that line about whether he died saving his friends or just to die, that hit me. Took me a while to process it.

[@davidbentacu5842]

I can't shake this. Anyone else see Quentin almost lose his shit when Elliott came walking up? Shit hit pretty hard.

[@mattdeegan6542]

Q's face the second Eliot appears...Love.

[@nikkinitrogen]

I don't know why but this video feels like visiting a tombstone of someone I loved but never got to know. I come back to it every few months to pay my respects.

[@rebeccahopkins9522]

Still crying. He didn’t just save our lives, he changed them. For the better. And it’s no better to be safe than sorry. ❤️u 4evr Q.

[@jonadams4224]

I was so shocked and pissed that they killed him off(considering he is the main character of the books) but when i re watched the episode I cried like a little girl at the ending. Such a good rendition of this song. I know its just a story, but I hope i will have touched the lives of others and have "sincere greif" by my friends and family. Life is to be celebrated at death, but when it comes down to it, its the people who've we have impacted for tue better that is each of our legacies, not the money and power we all try to get..remember people.... our interactions and love for others is what defines our lives and is what's really important. Funny thing is, its the easiest thing possible, to not just think of yournself and help others if you can. Even listening to someones bad day on the train ride can ripple in ways you cant see.

[@nanonipples5436]

Best and most heartbreaking scene so far

[@bobjoyner7174]

One of the most heart-wrenching scenes I've ever viewed, I think this will always stay with me!

[@katherinegarridonavarrete199]

Hale/Eliot looks like absolutely wrecked and I'm honestly super sad that we didn't get to see them have another 50 years.

[@isabellen.4388]

Who's still crying on this scene in November 2019 ? Can't wait to see season 5 😍😍😍 love you guys !!!! (from Senegal)

[@nexelray3207]

I finished this season in November! Only three month wait time baby!

Right now I'm crying 😭 I'm boy but I don't care.

[@Blomstermark]

Season 5?!

[@annikaengelke8355]

Never cried this much over a series.. 💔

[@roycasmohamed6340]

Quentin u change everybody lives forever

[@NanciBK]

God, this scene is so well acted. It’s just gut wrenching. 😭

[@TheAsmodha]

In my mind, the way Q looks and Eliot at 01:50 tells everything. He really liked Alice and Julia, but the one he truly learned to love with all his heart was Eliot.

[@JogaBonito5610]

Well they did live a WHOLE life together even raising a kid !! they were true soulmates!! Makes me cry every time too!!

[@zoeyprice3838]

i was not prepared for this scene and i literally cried the ENTIRE time. i had to watch it again bc i couldnt see it through my tears

[@Kadaue]

Same

[@pforce2000]

Double same.

[@trutheseaker]

I connect with quinten because they describe him as being average. But yet he has the ability to succeed where others have failed.

[@hectorohh]

the amount of times that i've watched this scene on different days, I would think something would change.. but my tears still flood out.

[@drewb9162]

I'm 4 years late 😢 missed this great show when it was on air.

Never too late to join the party of weepy mourners as we cry endlessly over the best sad scene ever.

[@ellawissa]

I literally LOVE this scene

[@johnheverin5531]

This never fails to bring tears to my eyes

[@Critical_Trans_Parent]

At least when eliot starts singing, i start crying ... always.

[@King_cole1990]

It genuinely hurts my heart that they canceled this show. I would do anything to have it back.

[@Joreel]

It wasn't for a lack of trying by the fans. We did everything we could to get SyFy to renew it or at least let another network take it, but SyFy refused to release the IP for it.

I like how Kady completely understands Alice and immediately knows what everyone needs, then. The 2 singers who start the song are the ones whove lost their loves. And they're the two morons standing and watching it all wonderful-life-style...

Can't seem to watch this scene without tearing up

[@tylerhinchcliff4675]

This show….i watched at moments in my life when I needed a show with a lot darkness, and alot of light. Quinten was the light in this show. The one who still held magic like a child with his favorite toy…always in love, always with child like wonder. This moment, always hits so hard. Even when I saw the thumbnail I immediately tested up.

[@WardNightstone]

T_T damn it I've watched this a dozen times and i still tear up *edit* and watching it today years later i just realised Q's expression at seeing elliot is cause he didn't know if they had saved him or not till that moment

[@muhmrrr6697]

it’s been 4 years and i am still coming back to this scene every once in a while

[@maxjudas9562]

Me, too. It's so gotdammed good.

[@ceko1501]

How is this okay? I mean he didn't even get to see Eliot again, he did all this to save him. Eliot was the last voice he heard. why did they do this to us? They deserved better.

I'm so mad that Quentin was killed off. This was his story. It should have been Alice. I know they aren't bringing him back next season, but I do hope he comes back at some point. He was the heart of the show.

[@TheMagiciansLoveX]

yeet

[@j_the_don5160]

I always wondered who Quentin would’ve picked between Eliot and Alice. Obviously Eliot never gave him the opportunity to even have a decision but if it was presented, I wanna know who he would’ve spent his last life with?

[@obakemano]

Why not both?

[@j_the_don5160]

@@obakemano ion think Alice is willing to share tbh.

[@hollywoodpineapple8337]

Elliot....the romance seemed to mainly be coming from Alice's side of things...He obviously liked and cared for her but based on his actions throughout he loved Eliot...They spent a lifetime together and as he mentioned they worked. He did everything to save Eliot hence why he died...sure it helped the world and all but it was mainly because of Eliot why he did it all. His face when he saw him was also telling.

Kaity ! I know right. I’m seriously mourning for a character on a tv show...

[@manuelmonreal8377]

Because we got to know these characters and probably had something in common, we had the chance to see Q grow

It might be the saddest thing in history of television.
