Sharp Objects: 4 Questions before the finale
By Kelley Hey
This Sunday, HBO will air the final episode of Sharp Objects. The series still has a few things it needs to wrap up. With that in mind, here are the four biggest questions we want answered before the finale.
Sharp Objects only has one episode left to tie up all its loose ends. The series is ending this Sunday and is not returning for another season, unfortunately. Besides the obvious question of who the real killer is, we have four other questions…
1. How did Natalie’s blood end up in John’s room?
Last week’s episode revealed that the blood stain found in John’s room matched Natalie’s. I am convinced John isn’t the killer. He is too genuinely upset about his sister’s death to be. So how did Natalie’s blood end up there? Did the real killer spill it there to frame John? Perhaps, Vickery is claiming it is a match just to wrap up the case quickly. We know he is not a fan of how the case reflects on the town.
2. Did Adora also poison Natalie and Ann?
The ending of the last episode heavily hinted at this. We know she tutored Natalie and Ann and was close to them. There is also a sequence where we see Adora as the “lady in white”. However, could this have been Camille just imagining the worst?
3. Will Adora finally pay for her crimes?

Last week’s episode revealed a horrifying truth: Adora has been poisoning Amma and poisoned Mariah (which resulted in her death). However, these crimes were heavily covered up.
Upon learning this information, Camille was obviously upset, but also seemed determined. I hope Camille can somehow get justice for her sisters. Adora is a sick, but terrible person who deserves to pay for what she has done.
4. How will all of this affect Camille?
Camille already is deeply emotionally scarred. The death of her younger sister and her emotionally abusive mother affected her greatly.

Now that she knows what Adora has done, I wonder if Camille will reach a breaking point. Will she have to return to the psych hospital? Though Camille is a flawed woman, I am really rooting for her because of all the trauma she endured. I hope she can make it out of all this at least somewhat okay and gets the help she needs.
Sharp Objects airs Sunday nights on HBO.
