That’s what bothered me the most. Like okay, in the moment you gotta make a shitty call, I get it. But then never going back to make it right? What the hell is that? That could made a great ep in itself, where you have to deal with the price you paid in order to win.
But nothing, not even a throwaway line. Ugh.

Don’t even get me started on his ultimate crime - taking his dog down to that planet to get the alien virus!
