We know that the titles for this particular show are very important, and this is where we do have to give a little bit more attention to “With Open Eyes.” That is the name of the finale, and it does imply a certain amount of self-awareness. Someone may be able to make a decision that on some level, they may have felt that they were not altogether capable of making in advance.
Now, of course, here is the question you have to wonder with this: Who are we actually talking about here? Is the show going to be able to send us down a surprising path still? We don’t 100% think that the writers are going to painting this story in a rather straight line, but we tend to think of this title as a reminder that for the first time, every character’s cards will be on the table. There will be no illusion about who everyone is, or what they are capable of within this world.
Whatever moves are made in this finale, they will be done with eyes wide open. We expect that some daring moves will be made, knowing full well there will be dire consequences. This is one of the reasons why Kendall may end up on top, but also completely alone and without anything else in his life. Is the victory worth the cost?
