The last breaths Lucky took, he was laughing because he couldn't believe how he slept on Tressa for so many years. This time the joke was really on him. He might as well die laughing than crying, because he realized that he had burnt the bridge down concerning Tressa and she was the one who won the game that he felt he had invented. She was the one who got the life insurance policy, the one who had his balls in her hand. She had the power, she could give life or she can give death. At the end of the day, there was only one saying that kept playing in his head that Tressa said to him years ago,
"When the dust
settles, Tressa gonna to be the last one standing!"
And she was!

Afterthought

Tressa begin having second thoughts and started feeling guilty about letting Lucky die. In spite of everything Lucky had done to her to make her life a living hell, she still wasn't God, she had no right to take Lucky's life.

The phone rung and it was Betty, apologizing to Tressa about scaring her. She was shocked when the police showed up at her door to get the boys. She had no idea that Tressa was in such a panic over the boys being missing. Lucky had told me, "you were strung out on drugs and didn't want the boys anymore and they were coming to live with me, so I can get a second chance to be a mother." Tressa was pissed off at this story, but it was the confirmation she did the right thing by leaving Lucky in the box.
