Partway through the finale of ITV thriller Gone, it's established that Michael Polly did not kill his wife Sarah.
Not only was she yearning for comfort, she needed to feel seen given that her husband had withdrawn from her entirely. More than anything, Sarah needed to confirm that she wasn't a ghost in her own life.
"Then she stopped trying, she stopped talking. I could see my wife and I knew what was happening, and I didn't do anything, just let it happen."
For a full breakdown of who killed Sarah and why, read on.
Gone ending explained: Who killed Sarah Polly?

His dad had been having an affair with the victim, and while he only intended to scare her in an attempt to end their relationship, for the sake of his parents' marriage, a struggle ensued and he shot her dead.

Had she not been married to Michael, it would have worked out between them, obviously. But she was, so it didn't.
"That's the tragedy."
So when he learned that Sarah hadn't cut things off with Stephen – and had lied to him – he confronted her. Once again, he demanded that she stop – for the sake of the school, of course – but "she kept shouting, she kept shouting and shouting".
"I wanted her to stop shouting, it needed to stop," he continued, tears flowing thick and fast, before he collected himself.
Of course, of course.
