![]() Now Peter steps into his dad’s shoes, more aware of his role in the legacy of the Sutherland name. Peter’s upset to learn that his dad sold government secrets but tried to atone by becoming a night agent before getting killed in the role. In a bittersweet revelation, he also discovers that his dad was a night agent. As a mournful cover of “Heroes” plays over the final scenes, Sutherland becomes a night agent (hey, that’s the name of the show!), the one who calls instead of the one who answers. The immovable hero of The Night Agent has come full circle by the finale, going from agent to phone operator and back to agent again. (It might also depend on the Oscar-nominee’s availability.) Her life is about to get decidedly worse.” Anything seems possible for this character. Series creator Shawn Ryan implied as much recently: “We can safely assume that Diane Farr has a very difficult criminal trial in her future after probably a difficult hospital stay. Will Farr get scapegoated for everything? That could happen. Farr’s fate is an interesting question mark given her relationship with the president and the fact that she eventually does help Rose, Peter, and Chelsea save the day. Still, she’s got some answering to do, which is made all too clear when Rose pushes a couch pillow into Farr’s gunshot wound in their final encounter. So she’s definitely a mole or double agent but with more morally upstanding reasons for doing so. Will Hong Chau (and her wig) return for season two?Īfter discovering that Wick and Redfield were behind the assassination attempt on Zadar, Farr agreed to work with them to protect her boss and BFF’s political agenda. That said, will the American people ever know the extent of his scheme? Probably not, but he’s bound to be punished with no allies left to protect him. It’ll be hard to come back from planning (and failing) to kill so many people. By the end, Redfield has bombs planted both in the Laurel Lodge at Camp David and on the president’s helicopter. Not great! Redfield’s attempt to kill Zadar (and Sutherland’s initial heroics) sets off a chain reaction of events, including the deaths of Rose’s aunt and uncle (who uncovered the truth), Maddie’s kidnapping, and the multiple assassination attempts. ![]() Redfield leaned so far into the traitorous activities that he eventually tried to kill the president of the United States. Nothing good, considering the treason charges. It seems unlikely we’ve seen the last of him. What kind of power does Wick maintain after such a disaster? It’s hard to say, but he seems to thrive in the shadows, and someone who can threaten the vice-president most likely has a few more options for masterminding chaos around the world. Wick is gone when the dust settles on the finale, but the president insists they will go after him. ![]() He has no loyalties, and, somewhat surprisingly, he doesn’t get his comeuppance. ![]() He is a puppet master at the highest level, even bossing Redfield around when he threatens to reveal the truth after Maddie is kidnapped. Wick is a businessman involved in all of the traitorous activities overseen by Redfield, including supervising the assassins who killed Rose’s (Luciane Buchanan) relatives and having a hand in the initial train bombing. Almora), a shocking number of double agents on the veep’s payroll are revealed, and Peter learns the truth about his father’s history as a night agent.Īs the bodies fall in the finale, it’s worth noting that the super-slimy Gordon Wick (Ben Cotton) is not one of them. Everything gets crazy at Camp David: Farr gets shot, Arrington thwarts a bomb attempt in the lodge, and Sutherland stops another bomb from detonating on the president’s helicopter. Turns out the veep was also behind the train bombing, hoping to assassinate a suspected terrorist named Omar Zadar (Adam Tsekhman) along with hundreds of innocent people. The finale gets all of the still-living good guys, bad guys, and in-between guys to Camp David, of all places, where the totally corrupt vice-president, Ashley Redfield (Christopher Shyer), has put in motion a plan that includes the death of President Travers (Kari Matchett). So what happened at the end of The Night Agent this season? ![]()
