Is she tormenting Jay because this is what he wanted, or because a FateWorseThanDeath lies in store for him? Also, what does Shel know about the cult, and Fiona's manipulations, in general?

** Jay: a traumatized soldier forced into doing something horrible for his family who gradually turns into a KnightTemplar or an evil BloodKnight whose ongoing cruelty to his family and refusal to do anything about it makes them all miserable and [[spoiler:leads to their deaths]]?
** Shel: a vicious and unlikeable GoldDigger turned LadyMacbeth or a desperate woman trapped in a marriage that increasingly borders on abusive to a serial murderer with severe anger issues?
** Fiona: does she genuinely feel some remorse for [[spoiler:Sammy and Shel (and maybe even Gal's) deaths at the end]], or is she just happy the plan worked?
** Also, was her ongoing attention to Sammy and Shel solely to prepare them for the sacrifice, or did she actually have another plan in mind to potentially save them?

* CatharsisFactor: Subverted with Jay's brutal murder of the librarian. Even though the victim is a horrific pedophile, his peaceful acceptance of the situation is offputting enough to drain the viewer of any satisfaction at his death.
