Hello, yes, do you want to talk about how Max told everyone that Splendid was dead, that she went under the wheels when she really didn’t? Because I find it so interesting, how Furiosa asks him again, “Did you see it?” and he just looks at her and replies, “She went under the wheels.” He doesn’t say yes, he just states what he said earlier because it’s a lie, she didn’t go under the wheels, but he knows that they can’t go back for her because going back would mean that the other Wives would be returned to Immortan Joe, and Splendid wouldn’t want that.
And Furious understands that. She understands that they can’t go back. She knows that Max is lying, but she also knows that they can’t go back and it tears her apart.
As for Max, Splendid is just another face to haunt his hallucinations, asking him why he didn’t save her over and over again.
