He should've chosen murder-suicide
19 October 2014
Warning: Spoilers
The way Chalky White dies is awful, it truly sucks! Did he really think he would stay alive after Valentin Narcisse offered him a deal after Chalky trapped Valentin silently threatening to kill him? I saw only 2 options for Chalky after he handed his gun then Valentin got in: 1) He would be assigned a mission assuredly killing him. 2) Exactly what happened: Be killed right then.

Yes Chalky was awestruck when he realized the child Daughter Maitland had with her was his. But what about the death of his other daughter which he attributed to Narcisse? What about the assassination attempt by the police officers (corrupt of course) surely ordered by Valentin? What about the same extent of assassination, that went to his refuge to his mentor Oscar Boneau, which he seem so found of?

Chalky knew before handing his handgun that death was inevitable due to Valentin, and also knew all the wrong he received from the latter, yet he chose simple death (by Valentin henchman) over murder-suicide.

This is ridiculous. Have I known this, I would have though of Chalky White all along as borderline mentally challenged.
