It should all make sense in hindsight, but even though I have seen it again and know that Hans is evil, it still doesn't make sense. You are right about the subtle clues. I want to re-watch, notice the clues and then be like "I see what you did there writers"
Yeah, its almost too good of a twist if its coming that much out of left field.
I guess its a "good twist" in that most of the audience doesn't see it coming, but is it really a satisfying twist if you can't look back and notice the clues that would've led up to it and/or implied that would eventually happen? I'm not sure.
Good message, somewhat lazy writing.
