The spoilers about a death never said it would be a major character. A and E were asked if there would be a death and A and E said yes. Like they do almost every year, and usually it means a guard or some other red-shirt. This year the clues are leading us all to realize that it is a probably a major death because of the funeral and reports from people on set. When there was a major character death last time (Neal) we had the Spoiler of Doom before hand, informing everyone that one of the regulars would die in 3B and that the actor or actress would not be returning. We don’t have that this time (TvLine’s Blind Item was about another show). All we have are the set pics, some odd things Sean said at the start of this arc, and what we’re seeing on screen.
