The Purple Witch
What’s happened before the finale?
The suitcase must be defended with your life. And when it comes to the final episode of Kleo, you better believe that means a good deal of blood, violence and deceiving! ..
Episode 7 revealed that the red suitcase held explosive documents that were used by Kleo’s grandfather to blackmail powerful people. This happened to be a secret deal between Kleo’s grandfather and Ramona, who smirks, holds Sven up at knifepoint and eventually slithers away.
Anna, a Chinese tourist, is killed after skirmishing with Kleo, courtesy of being set alight as the attention here turns back to the real location of the red suitcase. All roads then lead to Chile. And when Min Sun heads home and sees the place a mess, she also realizes where they’re going too.
Does Sven team up with Min Sun?
Chile is the final destination for the season 3 finale of “The OA.” The show’s protagonist, Kleo, is taken there by authorities after refusing to answer questions about her allegiances and what she’s doing. Kleo remains hopeful that Sven will become an agent for real and help her find answers. ..
Sven is allowed to go and he ends up staying with Kleo at a motel. They’re not exactly enthused by the accommodation though, given there’s only one King-sized bed.
The pair arrive at Jorge’s house to find that it is a complete sham. Jorge has been dead for 5 months, but Kleo sees right through the deception when she notices shoes and a jacket inside the house. ..
Ramona finds out Kleo is lying to her and sets out to prove it. Kleo kills the maid and answers a call from Ramona, who organizes a meet at El Buitre Bar. Sven goes to the hotel to look for clues about where the suitcase may be. ..
What happens in El Buitre bar? Is Kleo killed?
At El Buitre bar, a pregnant Ramona gushes over how her pregnancy is going, knowing that this will rile up Kleo. While she gets the drinks in, Sven looks through various documents and finds a map. He slips away in victory but unfortunately Kleo is outsmarted and poisoned, on the verge of dying as Ramona smugly walks away. Kleo had been planning to kill Ramona all along and Sven was just an unwitting pawn. ..
Sven shows up and manages to save Kleo’s life, showing her the map as they triumphantly prepare for the next step in their journey.
With Kleo on the mend, the pair head off on a road-trip, following the map to find the suitcase. However, they pass Ramona on the road and a chase ensues. Eventually this sees Kleo and Sven tumble off a cliff edge in a really disgusting and brutal car crash.
Thankfully, the power of plot armour means that both Kleo and Ramona are still alive with barely a scratch on them. With the petrol pouring out, Ramona looks set to throw a lighter… until her water breaks. Kleo steps out and decides to help Ramona deliver her baby.
What’s inside the red suitcase?
Kleo has been a thorn in the side of the gangsters for years, but her help delivering Ramona’s child finally allows her and Sven to go after the suitcase alone.
Kleo and Sven eventually find the suitcase. Inside they find a picture of President Reagan along with documents about a pact. It seems that Reagan actually financed the GDR and kept it alive with US dollars. The whole affair was done off the books, bypassing Congress completely. This means the GDR was in collusion with the enemy. If this got out, it could cause chaos ..
Margot Honecker, the former East German leader, has confirmed that her country and the United States made a secret pact in the 1980s to keep each other afloat financially. After taking a drink for herself, she points out that Ronald Reagan needed them as his bogeyman and in exchange, they needed the money to continue financing their operations. ..
Does Kleo hand over the suitcase?
Erich Kleo was blackmailed by Mielke, and she has the documents that prove it. Kleo is confident that they will hand over the suitcase in return for Margot’s address at Hotel Carrera. Why? Because Margot is still alive and she has the details of her mother’s death. In exchange, Kleo wants to know where her mother is living.
Kleo agrees to the deal and ends up finding information on her mother. As Kleo goes on the hunt for her long-lost faily, Margot takes the suitcase through the airport. However, Min Sun is in hot pursuit and has a red suitcase of her own.
Sven is disappointed and angry when Kleo tells him she’s not going to see her mother. He points out how big this suitcase is and how massive a deal it actually is in the grand scheme of things. Still, he agrees to go with her to see Kleo’s mum. But when they meet, Kleo is pushed out of the car so she has no choice but to confront her past. ..
Kleo learns that her mother never agreed with her father’s strictness and wanted a different GDR than the one offered. As a result, Kleo was betrayed and cast her out. She’s set up a new life for herself here and has a lot of resentment over her past. Kleo tells Kleo to leave.
Kleo returns to Sven and the pair inevitably hook up after a fair amount of sexual chemistry between them throughout these past few episodes. ..
Why does Kleo chase Sven?
Sven and Margot are in a heated argument about the suitcase when Min Sun walks in. Sven has been trying to make a deal with her, but she’s not interested. Sven tells her that he’s made a deal with Min Sun, but she’s shocked to hear this. She doesn’t believe him and wants to know what the deal is. Sven tells her that he’ll give her the suitcase if she helps him get revenge on those people who hurt him in the past. Margot is still angry about the suitcase, but she eventually agrees to help Sven get revenge on his enemies.
Kleo chases down her ex-boyfriend with her gun, cursing him out and firing the gun into the air. ..
How does Kleo season 1 end?
As Min Sun walks away from the U.S. Embassy, she smirks as the official opens her suitcase and finds a package inside.
It’s not initially clear what but if I had a guess, I’d imagine it’s an explosive of some sort, especially given Min Sun’s smirk is anything to go by. Margot opens her suitcase and just finds rolls of toilet paper. Uh oh!
Just before the show ends, we cut across to Uwe, who is still alive but still dribbling blood from his mouth. After cursing, he grits his teeth… and the show ends. ..
The Episode Review
In the finale of “Kleo: A Space Odyssey,” Kleo leaves her home planet to explore the universe, and in doing so, she comes into contact with a new species that she soon realizes is hostile. Kleo must use all of her skills and training to survive and protect her people, as well as save the galaxy from an impending threat.
The suitcase is a red one, and its contents are a mystery to us as the credits roll. This season has been full of mysteries, and this red suitcase is one of them.
The US may have a rigged explosive that could set off a big conflict and a potential war, while Margot is undoubtedly going to want revenge over what happened too.
Netflix has been tight-lipped about whether or not they will green-light a second season for Uwe, but the situation is bubbling up nicely and could lead to a massive second season if they do.
Kleo has been a really fun and aesthetically vibrant series, with a consistent motif of reds, yellows and blues to keep things as slick as possible.
The Killing Eve vibes are definitely there, but Kleo is its own entity throughout its run. The strength of the vibe is all the more evident because of it.
This show is entertaining and a second season would not be a bad idea. ..
Kleo is a new Netflix series that is set in the future and follows a group of teenagers who are forced to fight in a televised tournament. The series has been met with mixed reviews, but some people say that it is an interesting take on the future. ..
In Kleo Season 1, the end was revealed to be a mystery. What was in the red suitcase? Did the characters die or something? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below!
