There wasn't an announcement about it this time, was there? That might be a good sign, if they're not bothering with the manufactured drama a second time. North never thought there was a real threat of death before anyway, so... hopefully they just dropped that plotline altogether.
Yeah. It'd still suck to die to something so stupidly arbitrary and unnecessary, though. Not going to be fun for them to have that threat hanging over their heads this weekend either.
