I'm new here, but I have a theory that I've debated with my friends, that I'd like other opinions on. I think that Max dies in the last episode(S4 E9). Reasoning? When she dies in the house with Lucas the portals open, but when El saved her they closed back up, you can tell because when the fire fighters are at the town hall there is no orangey-redish glow against the building, just the rubble from where it collapsed, but at the very end of the episode, all the portals reopen, which can only be done when the 4th person (Max) dies, which leads me to believe that she did, in fact, die in the hospital; also when El was looking for her mind in the hospital, she couldn't find it, implying that Max was brain-dead. Like I said, just a theory, but please, tell me what you think
