‘The Fosters’ season 2 finale review: Did someone die? Also, Jude and Connor’s big step
Through its second season “The Fosters” has not shied away in the slightest from giving you some big, dramatic moments … so did you think that they were really going to during their finale Monday night? If you thought so, you had another thing coming.
Tonight’s episode ended with the sort of crazy-insane twist that even seemed a little bit unsettling even for a show that often is very dramatic. After all, the last thing that we ever expected to see on the series tonight was the report of a fatality, but not really getting a chance to even learn who died. Why make us wait for summer for that? Why? We’ll leave some of the guesswork (at least for now) to you in the comments below. Ana, Mariana, and Jesus are all at risk.
there was some good news in this episode, at least when it comes to Jude and Connor. They may actually have a chance to prepare for a real future. Of course, they are still ridiculously young, so there are going to be many opportunities for them to start to plot out their own future moving forward. Let’s not think that there is any real at all to rush things here, mostly because there isn’t.
Also, Callie decided that she was going to stay with the Fosters. This is not even remotely the most surprising news of all time, but still something that people for the most part would be excited to see. This was a crazy, shocking finale, and to be honest, we’re going to have to think about the cliffhanger. We’re not sure we love it. Grade: B-.

Mariana, Jesus, and Ana were all in the car, but there was also one character that was also in the car. The baby. Although it’s sad to think about, the character that could be gone, could be Anna’s baby. I think this could be logical, knowing that Ana was driving the car when they were hit.

i really hope it’s Ana… Jesus and Mariana both play vital roles in the show. it just wouldn’t make any sense to take them out?? in regards to the episode overall, too many events left unanswered! But at least they were able to resolve the whole Callie, Quinn and Foster’s issue! I’m very eager and curious what the show will come out with in Season 3?? will it revolve around Jude and Connor?? and let’s not ignore the situation of Lena, Stef and Monte?! what is going to happen there?? ahhh to MANY CLIFFHANGERS for one episode?!?!?!

It could be Marianna. She was one of the main focuses of the last few episodes and as another commenter (AD) said, usually if there is going to be a death, it is of someone who was recently highlighted. It would also then make sense for Jesus to go to boarding school to remove himself from the situation and mourn.
I am very confident that it won’t be Jesus. I highly doubt that they would do something so obvious and publicly announce that he is off the show. I bet he will just be in boarding school, though I had hoped for at least some voice appearances or returns for Christmas….

It would make more logical sense that it is Marian seeing as how she was the only one NOT in a seatbelt when they were hit. I don’t think this is the way Jesus would be written off. I think we will see him going to boarding school. Can’t wait for the new season already.

I don’t think it was Jesus.
I think it was Ana and this is why: it was a very Ana-centric episode. She got closure from her parents, her biological kids, and got the affirmation that she could finally be a mother. She no longer was thought of as a pathetic and self-centered druggie. Her biological children not only forgave her and made amends with her, but also looked to *want* to have a relationship with her. Her character was redeemed. And what do you do with a character that gets put in a positive light after they’ve been surrounded by darkness?? You kill them.
I know the most “logical” answer is to say it was Jesus, given all the tweets JTA released. But I don’t believe the show would kill off his character without the proper write-off. There was no praise for him in the episode or anyone telling him they loved him. Usually, when a character gets killed off, they get all this praise from everyone around him. Austin’s character didn’t get anything like that. However, Ana’s character did.

I don’t think Jesus died..I think he is going to boarding school…I think Ana will have lost the baby..I think the fatality was the other driver since he’s the one that ran the red light..did anyone else notice that brandon stopped his piano solo when the car crash happened? But still, they can’t go thru another death..one that can’t throw the fosters in a depressed state like frankie did..I think I’m gonna win this

I noticed this too. Notice that the piece that Brandon was playing was one that he composed himself. When his other piece that he composed in Season One was played for Callie he said that all of the elements of the song were the members of the family. Maybe a sense that something was wrong with one of the twins?
