I think if they both were at the house, then mom would have kept knocking. Four knocks just isn't enough when you're a mom stranded in the middle of the night in the dark at a beach.
And if they were both at the door, and both fine, and just being polite and not wanting to wake anyone, what would they do then? Go back down to the beach? I don't think so. They'd have headed to the next house with lights on. But we know that Az, at least, went back down to the beach. He had to have a compelling reason to do that rather than go on to the next house with a light.
So if it was Azriel knocking, then mom was in distress, intoxicated, drowning, brain event, swept out of the van, swept away in the water, passed out, whatever.
If it was Shantina knocking, then Azriel was in distress, drowning, asthma, swept out of van, swept away in water, whatever. It could be she was in a panic and felt compelled to run back to him after four knocks. We know he did, in fact, drown, so it's logical and reasonable that she could have been panicking and gave up after four knocks.
But I also think it's likely she was intoxicated or having a brain event, so I don't think she was running around at all. I think it was Az, not knowing what the heck to do, that he gave up after four knocks, and in a panic ran back to her, and drowned.
Who do you think was more likely knocking, Calliope? I've been over this in my head so many times it makes me crazy lol.
The most logical one would be Azriel. I don't think both were there, if those knocks did indeed have something to do with this.
