Ugh! Awful Ending - Much Better Alt Endings
I just binged the series and absolutely cannot believe the ending. It was the worst way to end it. I won’t waste time typing how nonsensical I feel it was. There were many different ways to end it better. Three immediately comes to mind.
1: The last member of the 12 is about to kill Villanelle and Carolyn orders her sniper to save her. Eve and Villanelle get finally get their happy ending and Carolyn gets back into MI5/MI6.
Also, Konstantin didn’t have to die, did he? He could have reunited with his now-reformed daughter.
2: Carolyn tries to kill Villanelle but at the last second Eve saves her. If they kill Konstantin, an argument can be made Carolyn should go too.
- Even a “draw your own conclusion” ending that is open to interpretation (like the finale of season 3) would be better, though I’m not a big fan of this type of ending.
I must admit I am partial to happy endings, but also, these types of endings would at least be more consistent with the entire theme of the series, which I felt was that once Villanelle and Eve are both able to accept who they are, accept their true nature, and not to try to change themselves for each other, they would finally be able to be together. In addition, it would be an ending that would be more consistent with the original author’s book series ending.
What type of ending would you all have liked to see?
