Final Scene Breakdown
I feel that scene is worthy of detailed attention so I thought I'd post some of the things that are said and things we see in the background in case they might be telling a story:
- He (we don't know his name, yet) represents the 15th district of Georgia - "fighting 15th"
- I might be reading too much into this but I do find the choice of the number interesting since 15 is 51 reversed. 51 Silos and all.
- On the wall: front page of the Washington Post "Nixon bows out"
- reference to Watergate scandal?
- reference to Helen working at the Post?
- Next to their booth there is a plaque. I can't make out what it says. "The Nixon Booth..." maybe? So blurry. Help, anyone?
- On the wall: "Build N-Bomb says Truman" - photo of Truman next to a photo of a nuclear bomb detonation and its mushroom cloud.
- On the wall: "President Kennedy dead" but can't tell what the subtitle says, photo of JFK
- In the spirits of the show (see what I did there?), he drinks water, she drinks what seems to be an old-fashioned? Would love to see the Special Menu of the Capitol Tavern lol
- This might be a reach, I might be reading a lot into this, but! Last scene guy: His left hand seems to be shaking at 57:10? It is the hand on which he wears a watch that could be the one George gave Juliette.
Please add what you have observed or found interesting! There's many more posters on the walls.
No reference to the books whatsoever, please! Thank you!
