Well looks like the writers got a proper warning that the show was being cancelled because I thought the finale was well done and wrapped up everything in a satisfactory way (even though it obviously didn't end it as originally planned). I thought this was the strongest episode. Unlike many premature finales, it didn't feel rushed to give a conclusion.

I wonder if this was how the season was originally supposed to end, because the conclusion could be interpreted in other ways besides the obvious.
