Poor minister is dead. Interesting episode because it set up the endgame for Page with 2 possible outcomes.

Pastor Tim must go. Though I also said that a couple seasons ago.

I took Photography in High School and every little detail of the materials they used were correct.

That was a powerful ending. And yeah Fuck Pastor Tim. Worse than sexual abuse, really?

I think he meant it in a methaphorical sense, meaning she doesn't even know the mental abuse she is getting from her parents.

Just look at what Paige did in the last scene as she set up her parents as they thought she was exposing Pastor Tim for something he said in his diary. But the joke was on them as Paige exposed THEM for something he said and they had to all read it together.

That was as good as saying, "You fucked me up royally!" without saying a word. Brilliant ending.

So do they ship him off anyway and then kill him down there? Seems like that could bring up the issue of the wife coming back to town.

I think they'll let Paige believe he's going far away to work somewhere then she'll start following them and witness his murder. She will either join them or turn them in at that point.
