“Fatal Attraction” Episode 6 Ending Explained
As the episode draws to a close, a sudden attack on Dan in his yard keeps viewers on edge until Mike returns just in time to dissuade the attacker with his revolver and demand that Dan verify who it is at gunpoint. As the camera zooms in on him, we see Artem, Olena’s abusive former flame-turned-husband. In a dramatic turn of events, Artem’s suspicions regarding Mike and Dan’s intentions to drive a wedge between himself and Olena led him to attack Dan. However, Mike intervened quickly enough for the situation to defuse itself, although all possible suspects, including Elijah and Clay, remain openly involved.
As she previously attempted to keep Artem and Olena apart, his violent tendencies put him in jeopardy of being tied to Alex’s death. We cut to a flashback scene showing Dan relaxing at home when Alex suddenly walks in with a steely demeanor and lures Quincy away from it all. In this episode, Dan is on a mission to track Alex down as he suspects she has faked her own death to play with his emotions. Her body, still missing, lends credence to his suspicions that Alex might have faked it all along!
Alex’s faked death becomes the central plot point from the 1987 film that this television series is based on, providing suspenseful tension for the narrative while paying respect to its source material. As the camera pans out, we witness Dan’s peaceful sleep being disturbed by a sudden knock at his door and an unexpected visit from law enforcement, leaving him wondering whether his dream had been prophetic or just an illusion.
As the credits roll, viewers witness Dan being arrested and taken away by the police, leaving viewers to question whether Alex’s body has been found. The evidence against him was compelling in the court proceedings, while her absence left no doubt of her death within her apartment compound. The final scene leaves no room for doubt that Alex was indeed murdered, as no trace could be found there of her corpse.
