====Murder Theories====
=====Red Killed Himself To Stay In Control=====
'''CANON'''

Red wants to be in control, and even if it is the illusion of control.  He tells himself that he is not trapped, yet he appears to be in the same situation as Ruby and Tom.  He refuses to answer questions, and even helps Ruby in some instances to either help or to further convince himself he is in control.  In order to preserve that desire to be in control, he kills himself, going out on his own terms with a smile on his face.  Perhaps Ruby and Tom's presence and desire to find out why they are not in control compounds the fact that he does not have a role in deciding his future, so he kills himself.

The theory is supported by Weaver's description of Red's feelings on the matter:
  <TG_Weaver> You know, from Red's point of view, he won. 
 He never got caught. He never got beaten. 
 He never gave up. And he exited on his own terms. 
 And most of all, he died with a smile on his face.

In addition, his death caused Ace to pay him a visit, just as a bomb Red made went off. It is quite clear Red had this all planned out from the get go.

However, it's likely that he was already infected (F's note) and that <strike>Ace got his body back through the door before the bomb went off</strike> Weaver confirmed that he was blown to smitheroons.
