We all thought that the first season of the series «Your Friends and Neighbors» broke all boundaries when it came to secrets, but the second season only confirmed that they can worsen over time. After we saw Coop (Jon Hamm), Nick (Mark Tallman), and Barney (Hoon Lee) standing over Ash’s (James Marsden) body in the ninth episode, the finale reveals the consequences of their crime. Moreover, the episode hints at who among them might crack first.
In this article, Hollywood Life breaks down the shocking moments and key events of the second season finale. (Warning: Spoilers for the second season finale of «Your Friends and Neighbors» follow.)
Yes. Although at one point in the finale, Coop, Nick, and Barney leave Ash to his fate, he does regain consciousness.
When the three friends put Ash in the trunk of the car, they drive off to dispose of the body. Barney, sitting in the back seat, glances at Ash’s face and sees his eyes open as he starts to attack the entire car. A fight ensues, and Nick loses control, crashing into the grass and into a lake.
The car and the four men sink, but Nick, Coop, and Barney swim to the surface. Before leaving the scene, they reposition Ash, placing him in the driver’s seat to create the appearance that he crashed into the water himself.
Nick, Coop, and Barney return to the city together, shocked by their actions, but vow to keep everything a secret.
No, at least not in the second season finale. The episode ends with the three of them currently avoiding punishment for the crime. Coop, Nick, and Barney return to their affluent suburban lives, reuniting with other men in the city at a sauna and at a Father’s Day celebration. But Nick clearly experiences guilt.
At the end of the finale, the camera returns to the pond where Ash and Nick’s car are underwater, hinting that the third season will likely focus on Ash’s death.
No. Although there is undeniable chemistry between Mel (Amanda Peet) and Coop throughout the second season, they do not reunite. In fact, Mel starts dating Miguel.
Amanda exclusively told Hollywood Life about her character’s connection with Coop and commented on their dynamic as divorced individuals.
«I think there is always that connection, that chemistry between them, and even when they fight, they fight over parenting», - Amanda said after announcing her breast cancer diagnosis this year. «In this season, it seems to me that [Mel and Coop] are going down parallel paths. They are both diving into extreme disobedience, but I wonder if that’s why they are so connected».
Coop finally found Ali (Lena Hall) after she packed her things and left to discover life outside of what she was living. Now Ali lives alone in a small apartment, and Coop visits her to see how she is doing.
In an exclusive interview with Hollywood Life, Lena described her character’s struggle with bipolar disorder, and therefore «every day is a challenge for her to prove to herself that she can survive without a breakdown».
«Ali doesn’t have [big ambitions]», - Lena noted. «Her musical ambitions come down to just surviving and doing it because she loves it. That is her ambition»
