He gets his wish in form of Agatha, spends only a couple of days bonding and falling in love with her and then all of this is ripped from him when she “dies”. There weren’t even so close, like Gil himself admits a few times, but the possibility of what they could have is enough to send him down the spiral of depression for next two months.
