Lane seemed at times to focus more on the memories of his brother like bond with TJ than on his present with Maddie. I was often left wondering why he couldn't live "in the now" and focus on his wife and family, especially with the risks that he took in saving TJ ended up costing him his life. Maddie seemed to question the same thing, why he couldn't just be happy with her and their life together, wondering why she wasn't enough for him.

My feeling is that Lane did what he did was for Maddie at and not jus T.J.....he knew that all Maddie had left in terms of her family was T.J. In Japanese tradition, family was what mattered most! He sacrificed his own future happiness, to save not only his best friend, but for the love of his life....
