Recap of the Finale Chaos
The finale begins with a scene where Link returns to the bunker with his family as a revolutionary group, led by attacks. Meanwhile, the bunker is also suffering from a catastrophic nuclear meltdown, which was orchestrated from within.
As the world crumbles, different plotlines are woven together, such as Xavier’s desperate attempt to rescue his daughter, who is stuck in an elevator; Link’s progress toward reaching a mysterious system called “Alex”; and the bunker’s struggle to decide whether to evacuate or contain the situation. However, the situation becomes even more complex as it becomes apparent that the world may not be as uninhabitable as previously thought.
Who Is Alex? The Biggest Reveal
The most significant twist centers on Alex.
Alex is not a human character. But he is shown as an advanced AI-powered quantum computer that is developed by scientists. The scientist named it after his dying wife and made it both personal and powerful.
This AI possesses the capability to:
- Foresee future occurrences in microseconds
- Identify anomalies in time
- Possibly manipulate timelines
In fact, Alex is already manipulating reality.

Time Travel Twist Explained
The finale heavily suggests that there is a dual timeline theory.
Xavier and Link experience:
- Unusual visions of the future
- Nosebleeds, which signify interference in the timeline
- This could be the result of Alex modifying the timeline.
The implication of this is that there are two timelines:
- One is a “bad timeline,” in which the world ends
- The other is a “corrected timeline,” in which the catastrophe is averted
The events we’re watching could be the ones that make sure the better timeline exists. This creates a paradox in which the catastrophe needs to happen to prevent itself.
Sinatra’s Sacrifice and Major Deaths
Sinatra stays behind in the bunker and seals it to prevent nuclear destruction. She saves:
- The survivors outside
- The whole planet from nuclear winter
- Other deaths in the show include:
- Anders (died in the initial explosion)
- Geiger (died trying to stop the meltdown)
However, the show leaves the audience in suspense as to whether Jane is dead or alive.
Xavier’s Destiny as “User X”
Sinatra’s last act is to reveal to Xavier that he is “User X”, the only person who can activate Alex. Before her death, she sets him off on a task:
- Go to the other bunker located at Denver airport
- Access Alex and do as it says
- Possibly save the world by changing reality
This proves that the events of season 3 will be centred on Xavier’s journey to unlock Alex’s full potential.
What Happens Next in Season 3?
The events of season 3 will likely include the following:
- How Alex’s manipulation of time is
- If Link is actually Sinatra’s son
- How Xavier can save the world
The scene also shows Alex’s activation in the Denver bunker, indicating that the real story is yet to be told.
