And as we watch in awe and horror, there are more untold stories about the people, Chris has touch... Ahem... Connected to in his lifetime.
Cole Smithey is probably happier than ever to not share the same surname with Chris, though a short internet search would connect the two sadly.
Megan Schroeder can, at least for a few days, put the gun under her pillow onto her nightstand, knowing that the menace of her teenage years is locked up.
Mary Lee Walsh maybe sits on her porch, reading the newspapers, sipping iced tea and saying to herself, that she always knew, that boy was a danger and she tried her best to defend her pupils.
Michael Snyder may remember when Chris came through the door of the Game Place the first time and he had this off feeling about that kid that would grow stronger with each year until he nearly got run over.
All those minor and major characters in Chris life - I wonder what they're thinking and feeling, now that Chris's love quest came to an foreseeable and at the same unforeseeable end.
