Questions on Saw III ending?
I understand most of it, except I don't get what John meant by "Amanda's life was in Lynn's hands" and that "Lynn was important to Amanda's survival". Amanda also exclaimed "You gave her control over me?!". Lynn didn't have control over Amanda at all.
I also don't know what he meant by "testing Amanda's willpower to save a life", since Amanda never saved anyone - all she did was keep herself from killing Lynn. This wasn't testing anything except Amanda's ability to not shoot someone.
Can someone explain?
I meant to add, I also don't get why after Amanda said "You gave her control over me?!" Lynn said "I won't tell anyone. I promise I won't."
What does Lynn mean? What "won't she tell anyone"? Was this explained in the movie and I just missed it, or is it explained in a sequel?

The guy during the movie that was in "the game" was Lynn's husband. Amanda didn't know this. John was testing amanda the whole time to see if she would lose control and kill Lynn. He knew that she would because of the way she was conducting her "games". And he knew that by the time this happened Lynn's husband would walk in and see his wife get shot, causing him to finally snap and kill amanda. If amanda didnt shoot Lynn, than Lynn's husband wouldn't have shot amanda. So technically Amanda's life was in Lynn's hands. Hopefully that helped. I suggest watching watching the ending again to see how he planned it All out, it is pretty confusing.
