A Competent Conclusion to an Average Journey
The finale arrives with the kind of extended runtime that signals "important television," and to be fair, it uses those extra minutes more wisely than the bloated early episodes. Ep 7 delivers a conclusion that's satisfying in all the conventional ways - loose threads tied up, villains getting their comeuppance, heroes making difficult choices that reveal their character.
What strikes me most about this finale is how thoroughly professional it all feels. The climactic confrontations are staged with technical competence, the emotional beats land where they're supposed to, and the resolution provides closure without feeling rushed. It's the work of people who understand the mechanics of television storytelling and execute them without any serious missteps that were typical of previous episodes.
Kay Kay Menon gets his big moments to shine, particularly in a final act sequence that reminds you why this character became so compelling in the first place. There's genuine weight to his choices here, and the performance carries the emotional stakes the script sometimes struggles to establish on its own.
The international conspiracy wraps up with enough twists to keep you engaged, though none that will genuinely surprise anyone who's been paying attention. It's all perfectly logical, efficiently plotted, and completely predictable.
That's Season 2 in a nutshell - competent, watchable, and utterly typical of what happens when a brilliant first season gets a perfectly average sequel.
A solid but unremarkable end 7/10.
