Warning: The following article contains spoilers from Nancy Drew season 4, episode 13

Nancy and Ace end up together in the series finale of Nancy Drew, acknowledging that they can't be apart. Director Amanda Row wanted to capture the special moment between Nancy and Ace by keeping the framing still and echoing a previous conversation. The scene is about relief and joy, rather than being a dramatic first kiss. It captures the bubbly, butterfly feeling of being with someone you love.

The fate of Nancy Drew and Ace is explained by the series finale director. Returning for its farewell outing, Nancy Drew promised to bow out with its signature blend of spooky scares and romantic conflict. The show's final episode, "The Light Between Lives", delivers both in spades. In the end, Nancy (Kennedy McMann) and Ace (Alex Saxon) end up together. But the journey to get to that point came with a few sacrifices,...

[Editor’s Note: The following contains spoilers for “Warrior” Season 1, Episode 5, “The Blood and the Shit.”]
