Welcome to the Heavy Spoilers show I'm your host Paul and this video we're breaking down the finale of The Undoing.

Turns out all along that it was Hugh...no not you...Hugh...no Hugh...sorry Johnathan and if that's all you've came to find out then congratulations, you don't have to hear me ramble on for 10 minutes.

However, there's also a lot to unpack and discuss about the ending as well as the hidden meaning and metaphors that are laced throughout the entry.

Ok so the Undoing followed Grace as she tried to unearth the truth about a murder plot that was centred around her husband Johnathan. After being accused of killing the woman he'd been having an affair with, Grace slowly started to unearth the truth about him throughout the series in this big whodunnit mystery.

The show has very much played with the idea of duality and the idea that if one has a good side they must in turn have an equal and opposite bad side which we've discussed throughout most of our videos.

Johnathan has been portrayed as the best of us, a child cancer doctor that would do whatever was necessary for his family but as discussed he is in fact a monster.

Now we pick up immediately after the reveal that the murder weapon was in Henry's violin case. Last week Henry admitted to covering for his father when it came to the affair with Elena and it seems like he's did the same thing when it came to her death.

The character discovered the murder weapon in outdoor fireplace when they were at the beach house but rather than tell his mother, he cleaned the weapon and covered for his dear old dad.

Now Grace has to grapple with what to do with this information and for several weeks we've discussed how she has been blinded by Johnathan, unable to see him for what he really was.

In the first episode she held a therapy session in which she discussed how her patient could not truly comprehend her husband for the man that he truly was and thus their relationship was in someway built on a lie.

This was the same with Grace but as she was a therapist she was able to see it in others and not herself. However, I think she can identify almost immediately in Henry that like her, he's blind to what Johnathan is truly like and this ability to diagnose the condition in others makes her realise that it exists within her and that she has to fight it.

Grace simply doesn't want her son to fall victim to Johnathan's manipulation and this almost Ah-ha moment and ability to identify problems in others makes her recognise her own failings and act in her family's best interests. She says she wants what's best for Henry and will do whatever is necessary to make sure that he gets this.

Now the breaking point for me comes when Johnathan tries to blame Henry for the murder rather than taking the blame himself. This incredibly callous move was of course echoed in the death of his sister in which he refused to take any responsibility for it even though he caused it.

He's used to throwing kids under the bus...literally...and he almost does the same with Henry who takes him back like Grace has so many times.
