I haven't seen 3b yet (I decided to wait for the DVD in the summer instead of watching online), but I play very fast and loose with spoilers. I thought it was sad that Allison died, but I was mainly worried that it meant that Chris would be leaving. I can't stand Kate, but I'm hoping she's reason enough for him to stay on the show. I'm not sure if I'll keep watching if he goes (though the Sheriff is hot too).
