When the movie came to a close, Mr. Brooks came to his daughter’s room as always, but was stabbed to death by his own daughter. When I saw this passage, I suddenly remembered what Mr. Brooks said when he killed the amateur assassin. He said he wanted to see his last The ending. At that time, I thought this was the ending of the film. It was very dramatic. As Mr. Brooks woke up and panted and prayed to fall asleep again, I suddenly felt, is this a choice the director of the film gave me? It's like Mr. Brooks silently took the bullet of an amateur killer and prepared a pistol for him. The moment he pulls the trigger, he has to decide for himself whether he should let everything end here! At the end of the film they both left two paths for themselves.

Mr. Earl Brooks: Yeah. It'll take the cops a week to ten days to put their case together, and then... and then they will come back and arrest her.
Marshall: What are you going to do?
[Earl breaks down and cries, while Marshall hugs him]
Mr. Earl Brooks: Oh, God. Oh, God. I was afraid of this since before she was born. She has... she has what I have.
Marshall: Yes, she does. But you were always smart about it. She was stupid. She did it because she got off - okay, I understand. She's in it for fun - okay, I understand. But why didn't she think it through? A hatchet? And she left it there.
