WTF HAPPENED?!?!?! I didn't see this coming. I want answers!!!! Son of a bitch.

The ice cracked under his feet as he was leaving which is why he was never found.

i don't think the boy died. if you look at the ice crack panel again, it wasn't the boy's shoe, it was the man's. i think the boy simply had no intention of going home. he just ran away.

I know right! A messed up ending to pull t our heart strings.
