Watching William choose Lucy's daughter over his own flesh and blood in Mommy, Why Did Daddy Let Me Die was absolutely gut-wrenching.

The scene where Rachel realizes William isn't coming back for Fiona had me sobbing. Her transition from hope to pure devastation in Mommy, Why Did Daddy Let Me Die is acting perfection.

What makes Mommy, Why Did Daddy Let Me Die so disturbing is how Emma subtly manipulates William. That line 'my head really really really hurts' while looking at him with those big eyes... she knows exactly what she's doing. It's not just William's fault; Emma is complicit in this tragedy.
Fiona giving her bunny to her mom saying 'she'll stay with you and Daddy... for me' in Mommy, Why Did Daddy Let Me Die destroyed me.

Every time Rachel's name popped up on William's phone in Mommy, Why Did Daddy Let Me Die, I held my breath hoping he'd answer. But he just kept driving, kept choosing Lucy. The visual of that phone ringing while Fiona takes her last breaths is cinematic cruelty at its finest.
