For those that watch the psychopathic-run, dark comedy show, "It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia," we experienced quite a scare during last season's two-part finale. Safe to say there wasn't an end involving any deaths of the five sick Paddy's employees we've grown to love.
However, just because this season didn't end with any deaths, doesn't mean the writers decided to end the show with a similar scenario that they teased viewers with last season. This article is going to detail the end to the show. Maybe not the end that will happen, but the end that the fans deserve. A multiple homicide-suicide is the only logical end to a show where there seems to be only chaos, violence and self-destructive, selfish behavior.
It would only be fitting for Charlie, Mac, Frank, Dee or Dennis to cause the end of the gang. Any of the schemes that these degenerates come up with is inevitably undone by themselves. The only climactic end to the show would be for the gang to go out in a blaze of glory. This could mean many things. I'm not going to anticipate or predict how the gang arrives at their demise, but I will explain who the most likely member of theirs will be to initiate the beginning of the end.
The reason for Charlie to go on a rampage is if the waitress dies or gets married to someone else. While it would be entertaining to see Charlie go wild, like he did against the Christmas Santa at the mall, this isn't as suspenseful an end coming from the wild card.
Dee isn't an option either because she has been broken and built back up more times than a house of cards. There was even an episode specifically about that where she hit rock bottom. Mac, Charlie and Frank execute the greatest prank about Dee falsely achieving her dreams, and instead of snapping, she reverts back to her old, furious self.
Mac and Frank pose as the least threatening in terms of the end of the gang. Mac is too preoccupied with his closet homosexuality, and Frank enjoys living on the "fray" too much to do anything to disturb the lifestyle he inserted himself back into.
This leaves only one person left to consider: Dennis. Every character is crazy in their own way, but Dennis is the one who seems to be the craziest and most likely to kill all of his friends. There have been multiple scenes and lines in the series where the audience has been given a glimpse into this sociopath. One that stands out in particular is when Dennis reveals to Dee's therapist that he believes himself to be an executioner, and while he would never pull the lever, simply knowing that he could is enough. This fact of Dennis' character alone is enough to understand that if anyone is going to kill the gang, it makes sense that it'll be the planner without emotions who has a contingency plan for everything.
Like any other amazing show, I don't want this to end. What is most dreadful is watching a series where the writers don't know how to end it. However, I'm convinced that whatever happens, Rob, Charlie and Glenn, among the other writers of this show, will be able to conceive an appropriate, offensive ending.
