Leonard wants to answer, wants to spit some bitter words at Washington, but it's over, he's realizing. It's all over. Whatever he did, whatever he said, it wasn't enough to prevent the flowers from taking over, and he's about to die in the water.

With his dying final gasp, or what might be that, Leonard flings an arm toward Washington, splashing him with saltwater. And then—yes, he's down, he's done for. Leonard kicks his legs, trying to grasp one more flower stem with his fingers, but it's pointless now; he scrabbles at the flower, but it's too little, too late. He can't even drown properly, though, because he can't seem to breathe.

His final thoughts are of Allison. His endings always involve her, somehow. Maybe if this is his actual death, he'll finally get the chance to get her back.
