The reason I don't play past S3

At the end of S3 both Lydia's best friend and her boyfriend/distraction die within the space of about a day and her other remaining friend from pre-canon, Danny, is never heard from again (I assume they kept in contact offscreen through the internet); the fan-made timeline claims both died on Tuesday November 14. The show picks up a month and a half later and none of this is referenced in the first half dozen episodes and Lydia doesn't seem emotionally affected at all.

My Lydia is therefore in such a stunningly different emotional place from canon Lydia that I just can't reconcile the two - and I've stopped watching the show.
