'You' Season 4 Part 2 Ending Explained: Killer's Identity And Characters' Fates

After season 4, part 1 of "You" left viewers thinking that Joe Goldberg, now known as Jonathan Moore, had fled to London to start a new life, the second half of the season turned the tables on its head. As it turns out, Joe was the real "Eat the Rich" killer all along, using an alter ego to embody his darker impulses.

Penn Badgley, who plays the disturbed character, spoke to The Hollywood Reporter about the show's twist, saying that it's a "campy exploration of our most toxic misconceptions of love and power and ourselves." While it's easy to fall under Joe's spell, Badgley explains that the show is at its best when viewed as an exploration of human nature. In addition to this major plot revelation, fans were also shocked to learn that Marienne (Tati Gabrielle) never actually escaped.

Penn Badgley, the actor who plays Joe Goldberg in the hit Netflix show You, recently discussed the show's ability to trick its audience through the use of an unreliable narrator. He explained that if viewers think the show is solely about Joe's character trying to change and fall in love, then they are too much under his spell.

He emphasized that the show's title, You, indicates that it is not just about Joe but an exploration of ourselves as well. Meanwhile, showrunner Sera Gamble revealed that the show's Fight Club-like narrative was planned for a while, and Joe's character arc was something they had been discussing for a couple of seasons. She added that the more Joe runs and tries to start over, the greater the pressure on him, leading to his justifications for his transgressions becoming increasingly baroque.

In addition to Joe’s shocking reveal as the true killer, fans were also surprised to learn that Marienne, who viewers believed had escaped Joe’s clutches in part 1, was actually still captive. It was a jarring twist that left viewers reeling, as they had believed Marienne was safe and free from Joe’s grasp.

The show’s exploration of toxic love and power dynamics has always been a major theme, but part 2 took it to new heights. By making Joe an even more unreliable narrator and twisting the audience’s perceptions of reality.

You managed to create an even more thrilling and captivating season. As Sera Gamble pointed out, the pressure on Joe only grows with each murder, and it will be interesting to see where the show takes his character in future seasons.

In addition to the revelation about Rhys, part 2 of You also revealed that Marienne, the teenage girl Joe had been trying to help in part 1, had never actually escaped from her captor. In fact, Marienne was being held captive in Joe’s apartment the entire time.

As the season progresses, Joe becomes increasingly unhinged, with his inner monologue revealing his descent into madness. His justifications for his actions become more and more twisted, and he becomes convinced that his actions are justified in the name of love and protecting those he cares about.

The season ends with a shocking cliffhanger, as Joe discovers that Love, the woman he had hoped to build a life with, is actually just as disturbed and violent as he is. The two of them are left standing over the body of their neighbor, having just killed her to protect their own secrets. It remains to be seen what will happen next in the twisted world of You.
