✅ Why is this try/catch block preventing lines after it from firing when an exception is caught?

            _logger.LogInformation("Beginning initialization of ClusterChat");

            foreach (var client in _clients)
            {
                bool authenticated = false;
                try
                {
                    await client.Item2.ConnectAsync();
                    authenticated = await client.Item2.AuthenticateAsync(client.Item1.RconPassword);
                }
                catch (Exception ex)
                {
                    _logger.LogError(ex, $"Initialization of ClusterChat server {client.Item1.Name} with key {client.Item1.Key} failed.");
                    continue;
                }
                if (authenticated)
                {
                    _logger.LogInformation($"ClusterChat successfully initialized for server {client.Item1.Name}.");
                }
                else
                {
                    _logger.LogError($"Initialization of ClusterChat server {client.Item1.Key} failed.");
                    _clients.Remove(client);
                    continue;
                }
            }

            // This logger line isn't executing when an exception is caught above...?
            _logger.LogInformation("Initialization of ClusterChat complete.");
