If Loving You Is Wrong Series Finale: 10 Burning Questions We Need Answered

With five seasons and more than 100 episodes under its belt, Tyler Perry's If Loving You Is Wrong had a lot of ground to cover in Tuesday's series finale. So why were many of the OWN drama's fans left deeply unsatisfied?

Sure, it had all the trappings of a classic soap finale — including several murders, both confirmed and speculated — but it also left plenty of unanswered questions on the table, making it feel more like the first half of a series finale than an actual conclusion. (And lest you think we're exaggerating, 26 percent of TVLine readers gave the episode a big fat "F.")

The episode felt like it played out in real time, which would have been fine if we were watching the series finale of 24, but there was simply no way all of the show's sordid storylines could be effectively wrapped up in a single night.

Read on for 10 burning questions we have after watching the series finale, then drop a comment with your own additions. Which unresolved cliffhangers bugged you the most?

(Oh, and it should go without saying that this list is a spoiler minefield. So if you haven't watched the finale, you might want to turn back now!)

Not that I have much faith in the efficiency of the Maxine Police Department, but are the cops really just going to charge Alex with Randal's murder without a thorough investigation? No additional questions asked? All they know is that she woke up in a blue dress with no memory of what happened earlier that night. Don't they need... what's the word... proof?!

The beauty of pinning Randal's murder on Alex, Brad explains, is that it will allow him and Marcie to "ride off into the sunset" together, finally achieving the happy ending they've always wanted. But does their plan work out? We'll never know, but considering the last shot of the happy couple involves him calming her down from a panic attack, I don't have high hopes for their future.

Tasing a guy is one thing. Tasing someone with a heart condition and a pacemaker is another. But what Eddie did — duct taping a taser to Ian's body to ensure a continuous flow of electricity — is a whole other level of messed up. There's no way he survived that, right?

After Larry revealed that Mika was in a dumpster and didn't know if she could breathe, Eddie located said dumpster (off screen), then arrived at Esperanza's to deliver some incredibly vague news. All he said was "I just saw her," and while it's fair to assume from his tears that Mika is dead, we're never actually told what happened to her. Couldn't Esperanza have waited, like, two more minutes to shoot him? And speaking of which...

Not many characters on this show would defend Eddie, but three of them — including a police officer and an FBI agent — watched her murder him in cold blood. How is this possibly going to end well for her?

Perhaps Esperanza's charge could be lessened to attempted murder, assuming Eddie survives those gunshots to the chest. Like most of the other presumed-dead characters in this finale, things aren't looking great for Eddie, but a little confirmation would be appreciated here.

Marcie may have murdered Randal, but it was Bennett who was shoved into the back of a squad car atop the series finale. Rick was right to apprehend him, especially since he literally walked in on Bennett holding the murder weapon, but we can't help wondering how things turned out for him. Was he released when Alex was booked?

While being hauled off, Bennett told his arresting officer, "I need to get back to my wife!" You know, the woman who was hospitalized because Randal slipped her unprescribed medication. Are we just... never going to see her again? Is she trapped in that hospital for all eternity now?

A series finale feels like a strange time to introduce a love triangle, but at least the men in Kelly's life provided some much-needed comic relief. From Rick casually asking about "the buff guy standing right there" to Terrell failing (miserably) to conceal his jealousy, we appreciated their brazen efforts to flirt with Kelly mere minutes after Randal's death.

Everyone in Larry's inner circle had an extreme reaction to his tragic hospitalization, but we're not sure his wife's suggestions were entirely helpful. "We're going to create a movement in this town," she said. "I want to drain the swamp. Create a hashtag, get this going."

Ian gave her an unconvincing "I will," but that was a few minutes before he got tased in the hospital parking lot — and I'm pretty sure we didn't see him tweet first.
