In the final scene, Georgie ties the ring Elvis gave her to a kite and lets go, with the series hinting at a potential romance with Nico Mirallegro’s Prof.

However, not everyone was pleased with the ending, with some viewers hoping Elvis would actually make a comeback, despite, as one fan put it, being “blown off a building repeatedly”.

Disappointed that I convinced myself that elvis was going to be alive even through we saw him blown off a building repeatedly, cheers crying xox #ourgirl
