It’s amazing how obtuse people can be. What was the purpose of devoting a whole show to Neal and Emma if she just ended up getting pregnant by a prison guard? Really. If logic and common sense weren’t enough, I guess we can’t trust Eddy and Adam when they confirm Neal is Henry’s father. Why should they know anything? They just create the plot and are the showrunners. Sometimes I dislike certain factions of fandom.
Oh, that definitely wasn’t their first time together in that hotel room. I’m not even sure that was where Henry was conceived. The purpose of the hotel scene was to show us their willingness to settle down and start a new life together…a counterpoint to what really happened. It emphasized that their dreams never did come true and fate often has its own plans. 🙁
