** From Stein's perspective, this easily crosses into NightmareFuel. He knows that the smooth, sexy guy that his boss and friend is seeing is a cold-blooded murderer... and finds this out moments before he bleeds to death. Even worse, he's drowning in his own blood and unable to speak. You can see him trying to spit out the words as Dinah cradles him, but all he can do is vomit up blood.

Instead, he goes to meet O'Connor once again, ignoring the other vets greeting him warmly. It was his last opportunity to try and reenter society and Lewis was too far gone to see it.

* Frank's momentary panic at the idea of Karen being targeted by a military-trained, unhinged bomber qualifies. He blames himself for what happened to his family, being unable to protect them, and the thought of it happening all over again to something else he cares is almost more than he could bear. And he says as much.

* Twisted and reprehensible as he was by the end, it's hard not to feel for Lewis Wilson when he's reduced to a babbling, bleeding mess in a meat locker. He's so mentally FUBAR that blowing himself up seems like a mercy, and Frank is actively goading him on. Whether or not it's because he simply wants him dead for his crimes, or because he ''knows from experience'' that death is the only peace the tortured young man can find, is up for debate.
* Frank's brutally accurate prediction of what will become of Lewis' father is heartbreaking, and hits very close to home. No matter what Lewis thinks he's doing or why, Frank makes it clear that it's not ''him'' who will really suffer. But ''because'' of him, they'll be ostracized, reviled, shunned and perhaps worse.
--> "One day, not long from now, he's gonna wake up, he's... he's gonna walk outside and the word "terrorist" is gonna be painted on his car. His mailbox is gonna be so full of hate, and death threats, he's just gonna give up. His friends, his family, they're not gonna come around! His phone's not gonna ring. He will ''know loneliness'', Lewis! He will ''suffer''! Your old man, his life, it's ruined!"

* The very last scene of the season could qualify. The bad men are all dead or thoroughly neutralized, the Lieberman family is back together, Frank has a clean slate... and all he can feel is ''fear'' for the very uncertain future he has ahead of him. He'd no different than the other vets in the room: rudderless, unprepared for "peacetime", and still very much broken inside, and alone.
** Cushioned by the fact that he most certainly ''does'' still have people that care for him, even love him. Frank's as alone as he decides he wants to be. How much that is depends entirely on him.
