This is such a powerful scene from "its what Keith would want" to the way the Rivercourt boys walked up to Jimmy's mom and show her so much love it breaks me into so many pieces
What kills me is this is all Dan'a fault. If Keith hadn't died...I guarantee you more would've shown up. It was so pathetic for Dan to let a guy who was in so much pain already be hated in his death for something he didn't do. Jimmy wasn't a bad person...he was just a scared person.
i cry for jimmy everytime i watch the episode of the school shooting when he's crying telling Keith "I just wanted it to stop, I just wanted them to like me" my heart just breaks... and when he's hitting his chest saying "it hurts all the time" I'm completely done! I felt for Jimmy Edwards so badly in that moment.
This show was so much more than a "teen drama". Had some truly amazing moments. Jimmy's poor mom standing there all alone. That hurt to see knowing Jimmy was innocent.
It says a lot about Lucas, he believed for some time Jimmy killed Keith but went to his funeral regardless. Imagine if he didn’t go after finding out it was actually Dan that killed Keith, he would never forgive himself.
Breaks my heart, must be the worst feeling the world to not only find out that your own son killed someone who he had known since he was little and had also committed suicide but then to soon later learn that her sons friends dad had actually been the one to frame her own dead child for the murder of his brother. The guilt that she had felt for a man (Dan) who didn't deserve t. The apology she gave him that again he didn't deserve. Then said man makes a talk show that basically profitted of not only his brothers (Lucas's father figure and Lucas and Nathans uncle) murder but also his own son's friends suicide too. That's why I have a hard time forgiving his character.
One mistake they made in the show was that when Lucas finds out that Jimmy was innocent of Kieth's murder, and after Dan confessed he should have gone right to Jimmy's mother and told her first that her son was innocent. Big mistake by the writers. Lucas or Mouth owed that to Jimmy's mom who believed for months that her son was a killer.
i am a very slow person. and it fell for me when they were in the car. it hit me...THEY ARE GOING TO JIMMYS FUNERAL!!!!... at that moment. i couldnt stop my tears. these moments is when one tree hill shines. such a beautiful show. lucas and the gang at this moment had all my respect in the world. i dont say this a lot. but to me, this scene is perfect. the shot of the boys in the car. the slow motion walk up to jimmys mom. the hug lucas gives to jimmys mom. i cry every time. this show is life.
this episode was the first episode to ever make me cry in a television show. the music by devics plays soo well in the background, i had to download the song after. lol.
I am sure that Lucas would say to the mom "If there's anything you need, you let us know." The others would nod in agreement and they would check up on her every now and again.
Must've been so heartbreaking for his mom. I feel terrible for her. I don't think Jimmy had the actual intentions of actually killing someone. He was fed up and scared and I think if the time capsule hadn't been leaked, this tragedy would've never happened. Although, I think Dan would've probably found a different way of killing Keith. Maybe if the fire in the dealership and other things hadn't have happened, Keith might still be alive.
me in 2023 wondering why jimmy wasnt buried by anyone else but his mom. didnt he have brothers, sisters didnt the mom have a family. So can life become this depressing. This was soo unfair to see more than the shooting. Hope no one goes through this
What shouldve been done was the cops go in and surround Jimmy Edwards with their guns because he would not have shot himself with the cops pointing their guns at him and no one would have gotten killed
Jimmy went and want shoot his bullies but later keith try tell him dont do it and then jimmy shot himself and then Dan come shot keith because he think keith started fire in his office but keith really never did it..:/
Speaking as someone who has very nearly gone through this. Mass shooter don't deserve our sympathy or time. This was horribly innapropriate. I don't care if he didn't actually kill anyone. You can't understand how it feels for someone to come into your community and threaten to kill your neighbors until it happens to you.
