13 Reasons Why 13 Reasons Why's Final Season Is A Complete Trainwreck

13. That Unintentionally Hilarious Car Crash

OK, this was only a small moment but still, what the hell was this?

At the end of the terrible fifth episode, 'House Party', Clay (Dylan Minnette) is driving along the highway with Zach (Ross Butler). Elated after losing his virginity, a drunk Clay drives Zach's car recklessly and crashes. This should've been shocking, but instead it's hysterically funny.

This is mainly thanks to the terrible special effects, which make it look like they filmed a HotWheels car flipping over and then super-imposed it on the show's live-action environment.

Worse still, this is barely ever mentioned again. The next episode cuts forward to about a week or two later. Clay hasn't got into any trouble, Zach somehow escaped with very minor injuries and the crash leads to a brief argument between the two, but other than that this moment has no purpose at all.

This scene is a perfect summation of season four as a whole. It's a car crash in terms of quality, but it's also full of seemingly big moments (such as the riot or Tyler's sting operation) which happen and then have no consequences whatsoever, giving the episodes a very messy feel.
