Steve looks pretty dead in the season one finale, but what if he's just badly injured? What if Jen and Judy have to sit by his hospital bedside and pray he doesn't wake up and implicate Jen in the shooting? Because clearly Judy would side with Jen, whose husband she did, after all, hit with her car, and leave by the side of the road to die. So now we have best friends Jen and Judy guarding a new secret: who shot Steve? The experience bonds them together again, and fans get to enjoy more of their complicated, but deeply moving friendship. Perhaps they are also plotting how to implicate Steve in Ted's murder while he's in a coma, and get Judy off scot-free.
