User blog comment:AdvancedRookie/Payback - How did Woods survive?/@comment-1630756-20120508195748

What if Kravchenko and Woods were secretly lovers, but due to the anti-gay stance of the 60s they were forced to fake their own deaths to be together? And the reason Woods stabs Kravchenco is that Krav secretly has a masochism fetish? Thus, in conclusion, the only logical explanation is that there were no live grenades and it was all an elaborate setup so Woods could share in Kravcheno's weird stab fetish on the cold stone floor beneath. Notice that Mason never checks the wreckage...
