Нет, ну вы меня простите, но у них таки и в каноне непонятно что с Райном и Джо, и в словах актеров/сценаристов.
Although Joe's part in this season won't be immediately clear, there will be an instant struggle in Ryan and Joe's relationship and how Ryan deals with those feelings.
"There is this weirdly symbiotic, special relationship between these men which Joe Carroll has embraced from the beginning and which Ryan Hardy has denied from the beginning," says Hawley. "Ryan has moved on in the beginning of the season, but has he really? And when Joe comes back into his life, does it infect him again? And, ultimately, is Ryan's denial about how important Joe is to him? And what would a confession of that look like? Again, very emotional, very primal stuff for the two of them."

Серьезно, я еще с первого сезона думаю, что на самом деле это сериал про пейринг Райан/Джо, а все эти культы, убийства, заговоры - так, чтобы никто не догадался.
