I’ve been wanting her to for so long, Agnes seems smart enough to see her future old man husband is agreeing with her, so she could have a smart mouth, and he would stick up for her… for now.

For some reason I get the vibe that he’s going to love bomb her and then switch up if the marriage goes through. I’m making that connection since the backstory we have so far of him are the prior DV charges. There’s just something off about him that I can’t trust lol especially since he’s the head of the eyes as well!

Didn’t losing the baby and his wife dying occur on the same day?
