They call it burning bridges because fire brings about complete and unrelenting destruction. Fire doesn't discriminate. It ruthlessly eradicates everything in its path, bridges included. And, when it's all razed to the ground, there's fertile earth for life to start anew. It doesn't erase the memories of the damage, though.
Everything's on fire. Chloe's relationship with her mom. Chloe's enrollment status at school. Rachel's life at home. Arcadia Bay. The literal flames that backdrop so much of Brave New World are a blatant metaphor for the unavoidable emotional destruction in everyone's lives. Fire does what fire will do. We can only hope something positive will grow in its wake.
