I believe he died in army/in war
what was that whole ordeal with Henry cuffing Tom in his basement???
I don't even remember that, i remember Tom rescued him, but..
He didn't want Tom to go to war (as they wwre afraid of losing their loved one) just as Janet also didn't.. so he cuffed him in the basement and with the heat of the moment he kissed Tom (and showed his feelings) even though he endured and hid his feelings all this time until then..
henry cuffed tom in his basement as a childish act to stop him from going to war. then he confessed his love and kissed him. tom got mad because he loves janet and told henry that he now has an even bigger reason to go to war (to make space between him an henry so henry will stop loving him). in summary: tom went to war to get away from henry for a bit and then died there and henry blames himself ever since for his dead.
can someone please explain how Tom died???
