She tries to radio for backup but fails amid the chaos.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Series creator Brad Ingelsby explained to <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/ew.com\/mark-ruffalo-explains-task-shocking-character-deaths-episode-6-11828397\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Entertainment Weekly;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Entertainment Weekly<\/a> that Lizzie\u2019s \u201chorrible\u201d death carries \u201ca tremendous amount of guilt\u201d for Grasso (Fabien Frankel), who indirectly caused the tragedy by letting gang members Jayson and Perry escape. Ingelsby said, \u201cHe thought he was able to manage all these things\u2026 now the house of cards has fallen down.\u201d He added that the loss makes Aleah (Thuso Mbedu) and Tom (Mark Ruffalo) more determined to uncover the truth.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The episode also features Robbie\u2019s death during a brutal fight with Jayson, the man responsible for killing his brother, Billy. Robbie suffers a fatal chest wound and dies in Tom\u2019s arms while being taken to the hospital. Ruffalo told EW that the moment reflects Tom\u2019s deep empathy and understanding of Robbie\u2019s motives, explaining, \u201cHe understands why he\u2019s doing what he does.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Ruffalo described Tom\u2019s compassion as his \u201csuperpower,\u201d noting that he sees Robbie as \u201ca good man who made bad choices in bad circumstances.\u201d The emotional sequence brings Tom\u2019s journey full circle.
