For weeks we have been promised that a main character was being killed off, and tonight it happened.
Dr Caleb 'Cal' Knight was stabbed. And even though Dylan and the team tried to save him, he died.
Cal was selfish, arrogant, lazy, immature, careless and could be cruel to his younger brother, Ethan.
But Cal was also a brilliant character who was multi dimensional and interesting.
He fell in love with Taylor and she hurt him. She was a con woman who only wanted money.
When Taylor gave birth to Matilda, Cal wanted to raise her. He loved her and wanted to be her father but he wasnt and he had to give her up.
He found out that he and Ethan were adopted and then that their birth mother was dying of huntingtons disease and that Ethan had the gene too.
And he developed feelings for Alicia only for her to sleep with Ethan behind his back.
Cal loved his brother. The only constant thing in his life. And that was his redeeming quality. No matter how much he hurt Ethan, and the other way around, they were always there for each other.
Cal died saving his brother from a dead patients vengeful son. Even when he was dying, he was only concerned for Ethan.
The Knight/Hardy boys have had scenes that broke my heart in the past (their mother dying is still heartbreaking to watch) and tonight continued that theme.
Poor Cal. He didn't deserve to die. And poor Ethan. What is gonna happen to him now that hes on his own? How will he cope without Cal? I hope Ethan becomes a stronger person now that his brother died.
I just cant help but be sad at the thought that hes facing a terrible illness alone. I hope Alicia steps up and becomes the person that Ethan needs.
