i watched S5 when it aired in 2005, and the 1st time i watched the ending i was heartbroken. i did not like the way they left the show at all. then after some time had passed i watched it ( and with this communitys help) i saw it in a whole new light and different direction. i used to be very upset that they did not get married,but now i realize that they dont have to be married to be happy and they dont have to be in the same city, brian is doing very well with kinnetik at the end of S5, so why wouldnt he fly up to new york for the week end to see justin,( i believe he did) and that justin would come down to pittsburg to see him and the rest of the family,debby told mel and linds before they drove to toronto that they had to come back for holidays, birthdays etc so she (deb) could spend time with her grand daughter, ( and justin would not want to anger deb).. yes i would have wanted justin to be at babylon when brian re-opened it, (but he was back at the loft waiting for brian to fuck him).. so anyway that is the ending for me, they are happy, not in the same city, but now they really do love and appreciate each other..
