Continuing on from the explosion, everyone looks up to Grayson Global, there's a moment of silence when a chair falls to the ground. Didn't that look a little like a plane seat, ha. Maybe it was just me. Nolan (Gabriel Mann) catches up to Emily (Emily VanCamp) who hasn't found Jack (Nick Wechsler). Nolan will need to return to the office and locate Jack's phone. Emily gets to the office and doesn't find Jack but someone's in the rubble. That could only be one person - Declan (Connor Paolo). Yet they didn't ask what he was doing there? Since Charlotte (Christa B Allen) said she was with Daniel (Josh Bowman). Only in the first part when Jack arrived someone was in the office but Jack didn't go in. The Grayson's arrive, well Conrad (Henry Czerny) to take full advantage of the tragedy and Ashley (Ashley Madekwe) comments they should wait for the first responders. Conrad "we are the first responders."
Daniel searches for Emily who comes out of the building claiming she was looking for him. Jack arrives at Nolan's saying he got his message not to go to Grayson Global. He got a text from Ashely so think she was behind it. Charlotte sees Declan on the stretcher. Nolan also calls Aiden (Barry Sloane) about what's happened and he arrives in search of Emily where Daniel sees him and tells the police he's the one who has info about the explosion. But he gets away. Conrad thinks Jack is dead so he can't be seen but Emily takes him to the hospital and gets him a nurse's uniform whilst she distracts Victoria (Madeleine Stowe) and Charlotte. She's here for Charlotte when Victoria wants to know why she's here. Well why was she here. Declan tells Jack about the baby and Carl will now have a cousin.
Charlotte has her final moments with Declan when he tells her she'll make a good mother and that he wants the baby, well she'll have no choice now. Aiden waits for Emily who tells him to leave. It wasn't the same with Jack she tells him and a lot of things have happened since then. She doesn't want to leave with him since she doesn't believe it will ever be over for her. He gives her the keys to their villa in Italy for when she does leave. Obviously he won't leave cos that'd be too easy.
Ashley tells Jack it must have been Conrad who sent the text after Victoria must have told him about Jack and he wanted to take him out, so he must have set the bomb. Daniel tells Conrad about the money going missing and now they are penniless. But he gives him a whole speech about how the Grayson's have their name and they will start again. He then admits he was the one behind the bombing and he knew about it. Conrad wants Victoria at his side since he's now Governor elect. Though it appears he tells Victoria the whole truth about the Initiative and how it doesn't exist. It's just a consortium of business people who make money out of misery really. Investments in security companies increased after flight 197 and they were ready to reap the rewards. If she leaves him she'll be a penniless skank she always was.
Daniel packs for Paris after Emily tells Victoria the two children she has want nothing to do with her and that Charlotte will also be leaving with them possibly. She sees the news when Aiden is arrested, well for someone who evaded the Grayson's for so long he became a little sloppy in getting caught like that. Daniel hates anyone getting their life torn apart and knows Aiden wasn't behind the bomb. Nolan searches for Jack and sees Decaln at the hospital where the doctor tells him they'll be prepping him for heart surgery. He didn't want to tell Charlotte that since he wanted to leave her with a good memory. Nolan will always be there for Jack. Question is who will be there for Nolan?
Jack comes to the hospital and sees the empty bed with Nolan in tears. Declan left him a message on his phone, his farewell to him. Jack loses it and Nolan calls Emily who thinks he'll go after Conrad. No he chooses Victoria first who tries to tell him she wasn't behind the bombing. Then says he should shoot her. He wants her to suffer. She should break the news to Charlotte gently but she doesn't tell her.
Emily arrives at the party as Conrad is about to go on and give his victory speech. Ashley gave Jack a press pass. Conrad isn't at all remorseful, well he wouldn't be. Aiden waits at the beach house Having been released by the FBI since they arrest Nolan and Daniel turns up for Emily. They fight when he tells him Daniel won't be getting her. Look another gun in a season finale. Don't think Aiden is dead though as Daniel turns up hiding the blood on his his shirt. That's too deja vu season 1. Especially since Takeda was no match for Aiden.
That bit with Padma (Dilshad Vadsaria) and the video she made is revealed now, see most people forgot about that so I'm glad it was finally revealed. Oh no poor Nolan for all the help he's been to everyone, Padma courtesy of Trask lands him in hot water. When the FBI take him in for questioning instead and release Aiden. So the FBI will be taking the word of a thief, Edith Lee/Falcon then instead of investigating all possibilities. So is Padma really dead I don't know, have this feeling she's not.
Daniel stands by Conrad who feigns a tribute to Declan as Jack watches from the shadows. Emily finds him. Victoria opens the door to Patrick. Emily reaches Jack in time and tells him not to throw isr life away over her mistakes. That he knows who she really is but he didn't look at her. Flashbacks to her as a child. Emily: "Jack look at me. Deep down you have always known the truth. I'm Amanda Clarke."
Finally she tells Jack which has been a long time coming. Only fitting he be told the truth since he's lost Amanda and now Declan too. Didn't he already suffer enough and now to have his brother taken away... which pails in comparison to losing Sammy last season. She stops Jack from killing Conrad but will she come to regret that too next season since he was behind all the misery and killings just for the sake of profit. She stopped Jack from having his moment of revenge just as she seeks hers. Maybe they'll join together as they have more than a mutual agenda now.
But Nolan being framed as Americon Initiative is too preposterous especially since all they had to go on were the tapes of him meeting with David in prison. SO he withheld info in the disappearance of Padma but that doesn't make him a terrorist. Anyway as I keep harping on about it no one actually saw Padma's DB, did Aiden actually see if she was dead when he found her. Maybe she and Aiden are in cahoots. See what they make me do in this show, speculate plenty. We'll have to wait until January to watch. All those spoilers have to avoid when the show returns in the US.
See Ashley did a bit of a turn around for the books in actually seeming genuine when she was disgusted at Conrad's actions. Also she was going to play Nate's tape at his speech. Wonder what will happen with that now. Probably not much since he's elected there'll be a lot for him to do. Turns out he was even more despicable than Victoria, hey? Or do they deserve each other? There's that flashback when Helen makes Conrad that offer inside jail which he goes along. It was too much for him to resist. Victoria didn't really get to do much against him for lying to her about Daniel and committing murder. Not that she hadn't murdered anyone before. Maybe Patrick will be her ally.
Victoria: "You will soon learn there there are limits to what a woman will endure for appearances...whatever your reasons are for marrying him, you'll never convince me it's for love." Victoria telling Emily they are alike. As her reasons for marrying Conrad were purely financial. So she has a certain instinct when it comes to Emily and her 'feelings' for Daniel. So it'll be a long seven months for us waiting for Revenge to be had...
