The Better Sister ending explained: Who killed Adam? ...Middle East

News by : (Radio Times) -

The murder of successful lawyer and 'perfect' husband Adam (Corey Stoll) kicked off The Better Sister in a suitably dramatic fashion, throwing up the question of just who killed him in cold blood.

His son Ethan (Maxwell Acee Donovan) is the main suspect in the case but, although circumstances around his whereabouts remain questionable, did he do it?

But who actually killed Adam and how did The Better Sister end? Read on for a breakdown of the final episode of the series.

The Better Sister ending explained: Who killed Adam?

Having had a strained relationship with her son Ethan over the years, Nicky had secretly been in contact with Ethan for some time in a bid for him to get to know his biological mother.

Intent on speaking to Chloe and rescuing her, Nicky travels to visit her but is met by Adam instead. Squaring up to him about his abuse and wanting to rescue Chloe, Adam doesn't take too well to Nicky's arrival and things start to devolve, with the pair caught in a physical struggle.

While Ethan's DNA was found on his father (and ultimately incriminated him in a crime he didn't commit), he did have a small part in the aftermath.

Telling Chloe about this in person in the present day, Nicky says that she simply pretended she had no idea about Adam's murder when the cops rang her about it initially. Chloe also finds out that Adam had lied about Nicky's alcoholism over the years, which was the catalyst for Ethan being taken away from Nicky.

In reality, Adam had been drugging Nicky, and now, feeling guilty for essentially ruining Nicky's life, Chloe is determined to keep her sister's secret and not see her go down for Adam's murder.

What happens to Chloe and Nicky?

Chloe manages to find out incriminating information about Bill Braddock (Matthew Modine), something that Adam was working undercover on as an informant for the FBI.

Braddock's home is raided and he is arrested, also charged with Adam's murder after Chloe plants the murder weapon in his office. Because of this, the sisters manage to walk free and aren't incriminated in Adam's murder in any way.

Realising that Nicky is the murderer and keen to get some concrete evidence of the fact, Nancy is informed on her way back that she's no longer on the case. It turns out that Nicky had utilised the PI hired by Katherine (for Chloe's online abuse) to dig up some dirt on Nancy, finding out that she had used excessive force and badly beaten up an innocent Black man on a previous case.

Although the pair disagree about the possibility of working together on a tell-all memoir, Chloe reaffirms her loyalties to Nicky and Ethan, admitting that she's missed Nicky in the years they haven't spoken. It becomes clear that the sisters' future looks bright as they appear to agree on forging a new life together, with the final scenes of them on the beach together.

Does anyone die at the end of The Better Sister?

While the circumstances around his death remain an open-ended mystery, we can either surmise that Jake was caught in the Braddock crossfire and could've been killed by him (or someone sent by him) for working with the FBI.

It's also a possibility that Jake could've taken his own life after losing his job, feeling fearful for his own wellbeing and also facing mounting pressure from Olivero. Ultimately, the cause of Jake's death remains a mystery.
