Paradise Season 1 Explored Engaging Storytelling and Unique Concepts
When the president of the United States is murdered in an underground city where crime is not common, top Secret Service agent Xavier Collins must find answers as he comes under suspicion for the assassination. Paradise is set in a huge underground bunker built by the United States to accommodate hand-picked 25,000 people after predicting a dystopian future following a natural catastrophe powerful enough to wipe out civilization.
In his quest for answers about the president’s murder, Xavier unravels several plot twists that set up a thrilling future for the series. Paradise perfectly blends family drama, sci-fi, and murder mystery to create a highly entertaining political thriller. The icing on the cake is its underground society setting, which makes for a refreshing premise of a post-apocalyptic world. Also, the Paradise Season 1 ending created an opportunity to give viewers a sneak peek at what the outside world looks like.
Paradise Season 1 Finale Solved The President’s Murder Mystery
In an interesting turn of events, the mystery that kicked off the series was solved. The same man who attempted to murder President Cal Bradford is behind his eventual murder after all. The killer chose to jump to his death instead of getting arrested for the crime. Before that, several people were roped in while searching for answers in the murder mystery and it doesn’t help that the president was sleeping with his lead secret service agent Robinson (Krys Marshall).
The Truth about Xavier’s Wife Dr. Teri Rogers
Throughout the eight episodes of the series, Xavier was burdened by the fact that his wife was left behind and he blamed the president for it. However, Sinatra changed the narrative when she was faced with death at Xavier’s hands and used his wife as a bargaining chip. According to Sinatra, Teri didn’t die in Atlanta as earlier presumed. She went on to provide proof of life by playing recordings of survivors, including Xavier’s wife, searching for their loved ones.
Given her history of manipulative and brutal acts, there is no guarantee that Sinatra is telling the truth about Teri. She could be saying things Xavier would want to hear to save herself. On the bright side, the explorers sent outside the bunker to ascertain the situation out there did discover that there are survivors and Teri might just be one of them. If Xavier’s wife is alive, Season 2 is expected to highlight how she survived the catastrophe. Perhaps Atlanta was safe from the thermonuclear radiation or another paradise exists.
Xavier is Set To Explore the World Outside the Bunker in Paradise Season 2
In the intriguing last scene of Paradise Season 1, the bunker gate opens for Xavier to fly out in a plane to explore what’s left of the world, leaving his children under Robinson’s care. Nobody knows what he might find in this venture into the unknown. Paradise Season 1 ending left a lot of loose ends for the next installment to pick up from and with Xavier gone, a huge vacuum will be created. The question is: Who will ensure order in the bunker?
Meanwhile, the characters have evolved differently. Jeremy is speaking up against injustice and exhibiting leadership tendencies, Sinatra has lost her grip on authority as she slips into a coma, and Jane has emerged as a powerful entity nobody saw coming. Overall, Paradise Season 1 ending is the game changer and audiences can’t wait for the next installment.
