The 'You' Season 4 Part 2 Ending (and Twist!), Explained (MarieClaire.com)

Joe finds himself stuck between his nemesis and his lover's father, a billionaire tycoon who knows his real identity. Lockwood wants to ruin Rhys' reputation, ...

She even breaks into his flat and finds Marienne in The Cage before Joe even remembers where she is, and Nadia refuses to let Marienne just die in there. If we do get a Season 5...maybe Marienne and Nadia (and somehow Ellie) team up to finally take him down once and for all. At this point, Kate is the second person to know the "real" Joe—he's pretty much told her everything at this point, except the out-and-out killings—and she still loves him. After Marianne's heart-breaking POV episode, where we see a dead-eyed Joe kidnap her, sedate her, lock her in The Cage, and tempt her with drugs, she's barely holding on when Nadia finds her. Eventually, in order to shut up Rhys' arguments that he should just kill Marienne, he takes some tranquilizers and has an epic hallucination sequence where Gemma(?), Beck(!), and Love(!!!) finally show him that all the stalking and innocent murders will only end with his death. Her father left his whole empire to her, and she tells Joe that he's the person who's made her believe that she's not a bad person. Also, Rhys' body has since been found, making it clear that Lockwood planned for Joe to get caught and sent to prison, which would deal with the whole "a wife stabber is dating his daughter" problem. And Joe has dissociated so much that he can't remember where he put Marienne, since he still refuses to accept the dark side of him. The independent life she was proud of building all came from him, and now he wants her to stop playing at freedom and come collect her inheritance. After Joe snaps and strangles him to death, the truth is revealed, as another Rhys appears and walks over to the dead body. He interrogates him with some gruesome "ball torture" (luckily all left to the imagination), but Rhys insists he doesn't know anything. Joe goes to Rhys' house, where the author's alone, and forces his way in when Rhys pretends not to know him.

You Season 4 Part 2 Ending Explained (Den of Geek)

You. (L-R) Ed Speleers as Rhys, Penn Badgley as Joe Goldberg in Photo: Netflix. This article contains spoilers for all of You season ...

[Creator Sera Gamble has hinted](https://www.vulture.com/article/you-season-4-who-is-the-killer-sera-gamble.html) that she and co-creator Greg Berlanti know where they want Joe to end up at the conclusion of the series, and it stands to reason that Netflix will give them the runway to get there. The only reason to root for his escape is to root for more You. In the last few beats of the season, we see the now purely evil version of Joe frame Nadia’s boyfriend for all the killings and then frame Nadia for the murder of her boyfriend. So while Kate is alive at the end of Season 4, she might not have very long to live. Nadia is too savvy to tell anyone about what she knows, so her status at the end of the season is pretty bleak. She has chosen to keep Joe by her side and has even paid good money to bring him back from the dead. The fact that we have to worry about the fate of SO MANY women in this show is very telling. In a creeptastic conclusion, we see Joe wander away to admire his reflection during an interview alongside the newly untouchable Kate — and, instead of Joe’s face, we see Rhys is in the glass, smiling back. The beta blockers slowed down her heart enough so that Joe thought she was dead, and dropped her in a park so her body could be found. It’s to the show’s credit that I didn’t really guess that Rhys was actually Joe for the first half of the season, but I did have some questions. While Love wasn’t completely innocent herself, she also appears in a sequence with Beck, who has been relentlessly haunting Joe since he killed her at the end of Season 1. For example, why did Rhys say he had to intervene to save Joe when Joe had already disarmed Roald during his attempt at playing the most dangerous game in the woods of Hampshire House?

The You Season 4 Part 2 Ending, Explained (Seventeen.com)

You season 4, part 2 is officially here, and it's crystal clear that Joe Goldberg is up to his old tricks. ICYMI: the murderous stalker fakes his death in ...

The screen fades to black, and viewers later discover that Joe has moved to New York City with Kate, who inherited all of her father's money and influential status in the wake of his death. The murderous killer had already planted evidence connecting Edward to Rhys' murder and left proof connecting Nadia to Edward's murder in her apartment before calling the police. Kate uses her newfound power to help Joe return to the US with a clean slate. Unfortunately for Rhys, he suffered the IRL consequences of accidentally becoming one of Joe's fixations, and he was subsequently killed. His connection to Kate led him to her father's airport hangar in the final episode, where he sought revenge for his mistreatment of Kate. After Marienne's ex was killed in a robbery gone wrong, Love revealed that it was Joe who had killed Ryan and urged Marienne to take her daughter and leave before she was killed. Now that Joe is back to his old tricks, there's no telling what havoc he'll wreak in New York City in You season five. She gives her beta blocker pills to decrease her heart rate activity in an attempt to make Joe believe that she had committed suicide. He later woke up in a hospital bed with Kate at his side and appeared to come clean about the crimes he committed. He came up lucky when he notices one of her paintings in a park in Paris. Before settling down in London, Joe travels to Paris and "coincidentally" stumbles across Marienne, who was one of his past victims. Joe plans to turn over a new leaf with a new identity as a university professor named Jonathan Moore, but since this is You and it's Joe we're talking about, one can only guess that there would be a murderous trail left behind.

You Season 4 Part 2 Review: A Big Twist Recaptures You's Chaotic ... (TV Guide)

I'd posit that people who watch the season as a whole will enjoy it more than those who had to wait a month to learn what the season was actually about. He's a highlight of the season, and not just because of Kinnear, but because of what he represents for Joe. It has that wild energy that Part 1 was in need of, the spark that makes You work. Joe goes on a journey as far as character development in Part 2; that journey, and where Joe ends up, points to a real plan for the series. Even the Episode 5 reveal that the "Eat the Rich" killer, and Joe's very own stalker, was mayoral candidate and man of the people Rhys Montrose ( [Ed Speleers](https://www.tvguide.com/celebrities/ed-speleers/credits/3030343007/)) was a little deflating, since Rhys seemed like the most obvious suspect. Their chemistry is what really makes the whole thing work, and their relationship only becomes more twisted and interesting to watch as the season hurtles toward its conclusion. The Rhys he's been speaking to all this time isn't the real Rhys but a figment of Joe's imagination post-psychotic break. Part 1 feels like an entirely different show on its own than it does once you understand the season as a whole, and in splitting up the two parts, some momentum was lost. [Tati Gabrielle](https://www.tvguide.com/celebrities/tati-gabrielle/3030850941/)), in London, kindly let her go as a way to show her that he'd changed — that she'd changed him — and then take on an assumed identity, Jonathan Moore, a literature professor at a university in the city. [Greg Kinnear](https://www.tvguide.com/celebrities/greg-kinnear/3030386437/) — yep, you read that right). It was a hoot (in the way You is always a sick, twisted hoot), but it didn't feel like it was leveling up the series in any way. The first five episodes felt like Joe and the show were holding back — and, possibly even worse, attempting to give Joe Goldberg some sort of redemption arc.

Breaking Down the Ending of <i>You</i> Season 4, Part 2 (TIME)

Warning: This post contains spoilers for part two of season four of You. Well, Joe Goldberg has done it again: killed a bunch of people, framed others for ...

Nadia is set on bringing Joe to justice but needs solid evidence to provide to the police, and in order to get it she must go back to his apartment. After finding Marienne in the glass box, passed out with an empty pill bottle, Goldberg assumes she’s dead so he takes her out of the box and leaves her on a bench in a park. When Joe wakes up in the hospital, Kate meets him there and tells him she inherited her father’s wealth and therefore power but in order for them to be together, he has to tell her the truth. Nadia tells Edward about their plan(s), which ended with Nadia meeting Marienne in the park after Joe dropped her there and gave her a drug to reverse the effects of the pills she took to wake her up. Nadia begins to snoop around Joe’s apartment when he’s gone and discovers his real name when her boyfriend, Edward—the son of a newspaper publisher—sends her leaked candid photos of Joe walking around with a bag of Indian food in multiple different pictures. Joe kills Lockwood and after an emotional conversation with the apparitional Montrose, he decides to die by suicide and jumps off a bridge, which he manages to survive because the police immediately rescue him. Viewers then see Montrose break down how Joe imagined this all and is, in fact, the person who killed all of the people who have been murdered this season, thereby continuing to be exactly who he was trying not to be. The identity of the killer is revealed to be Montrose, and Joe tries to figure out how to take him down to get him off his back. All of this leads him to the conclusion that he needs to die by suicide so as not to continue this vicious cycle of hurting women. But by the end of the remaining five episodes, he ultimately remains a serial killer addicted to protecting the woman he loves and almost, but not quite, getting caught. Fans of the show left off the first part of the season with Penn Badgley’s Joe finding out that the “Eat The Rich” killer was Rhys Montrose and becoming obsessed with taking him down. A month after the first part of Season 4 was released, Netflix finally released Part Two on March 9 and Goldberg’s story got wrapped up in a nice, neat(-ish) bow as it always does.

You Season 4 Part 2 Review (BuzzFeed News)

(MAJOR SPOILERS) In the second half of You Season 4, Joe comes to terms with his true nature in a way that wouldn't have been possible with so much sex.

When he wakes in the hospital, his whole world has shifted: He knows he’s a killer through and through now. [TV Guide](https://www.tvguide.com/news/features/sera-gamble-interview-you-season-2/) interview with me, Gamble pondered over Joe’s ending, saying she’s “not sure if Joe dying would be letting him off the hook” but that, “Joe was born so we could burn him to the ground.” Since Season 4 already showcased the death of Joe and eliminated the notion that Joe could slip away into the night unnoticed, there’s one big play for Season 5 (which hasn’t yet been greenlit) to make. Kate, who also has quite a dark backstory, makes a pact with Joe in the wake of his suicide attempt. After showing utter disdain and disgust for ETR’s methods and motives all season and experiencing the same relentless, violent pursuit he put his former romantic interests through, Joe comes face to face with what kind of monster he really is. Sure, he’s made a guy friend or two — Paco (Luca Padovon), the kid he looked out for in Season 1; a brief moment of connection with Forty during their drug trip in Season 2, a Stockholm Syndromed Will Bettleheim (Robin Lord Taylor) — but Rhys is the first man Joe connects with on a level of pure admiration and respect. In a final conversation, Rhys is adamant that Joe isn’t suicidal and tells Joe he loves him. To Badgley’s credit, he explained that while ideally he’d be doing zero nudity and/or intimate scenes in Season 4, he knew the nature of the show when he signed the contract and was ready to work with Gamble to ensure the DNA remained unchanged. This is ultimately the reason why all of his relationships fail: Joe’s definition of romantic love is so shallow that it only centers himself. Despite all his delusions about being a good man caught in horrible circumstances that just happen to him, the way Joe views and experiences love has never truly changed when he was driven by romantic attraction. A mysterious serial killer targeting London’s most infamous socialites framed him for his neighbor’s death, and he needed to find out who was hunting him and how they knew about his true identity. The most clever move of Season 4 Part 1 was to set up Kate (Charlotte Ritchie), Joe’s new “Hello, You,” as the least of his worries. [Podcrushed](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-69Tg3xwLZs), he revealed he was deeply uncomfortable doing intimate scenes because, “fidelity in every relationship, including my marriage, is important to me.” He said he asked You showrunner Sera Gamble if they could cut as many of Joe's sex scenes as possible.

Who Is the Real Eat the Rich Killer? 'You' Season 4 Part 2 Ending ... (Us Weekly)

'You' season 4 part 2 revealed the real identity of the Eat the Rich Killer and the fate of Joe Goldberg — all the details.

“It’s like we can dig in and not worry about having a perfectly protected stance, because at the end of the day, Joe is [an unreliable narrator and a despicable human being](https://www.usmagazine.com/entertainment/pictures/penn-badgleys-quotes-about-joe-goldbergs-ending-on-you/).” [we had been talking about for a couple of seasons](https://www.usmagazine.com/entertainment/pictures/you-season-4-everything-we-know/),” she said. So to me, Joe is, like, he’s a many-sided die. “Joe is a perfect device because you can delve into something, but you always have the safety cord or the safety net of, ‘Yeah, but he’s a hypocrite.’ We are all exploring something earnestly, I think. “Greg would point out that the pressure on him only gets greater the more he runs and tries to start over. In addition to being unmasked as the killer of every person who died in season 4 part 1, You also gave fans a second surprise: Marienne (Tati Gabrielle) never escaped at all. So, in a way, I really like that,” he told “And if we forget that and get lured in by his unreliable narration and think we’re actually in a story about a man who’s trying to change and trying to fall in love and trying to find somebody, well then we’re too much under Joe’s spell. [Charlotte Ritchie](https://www.usmagazine.com/entertainment/news/penn-badgley-filmed-less-you-intimacy-scenes-due-to-marriage/)). It’s not him. It’s You. And that’s good on one hand, because it means we’ve made this thing in a compelling enough way that that’s what it does.

Netflix's 'You' Season 4 Finale Recap: Joe Is Back (CNET)

We thought he was on the path to redemption in part one, then bam! Psychopath Joe is back in the building.

But this choice, this character decision to have Joe embrace his inner demon seems -- perversely -- to be a wise one. Maybe season 5 will see Joe master his killing instinct and use it only on the deserving, Dexter-style. He jumps off the side of a bridge in an attempt to end Rhys and his own evil doings. But then season 4 showed Joe -- and us -- the truth. Kate promises she can accept all of him -- both his Joe side and his Rhys side -- and makes a proposition: She'll help him stay "good" as long as he reciprocates and helps her stay "good." Given that Joe usually disappears into long pauses in conversations (when he's telling us in voiceover what his real opinion of people is), the Rhys hallucination is kind of a plausible Joe thing to make up.

'You' Season 4: Penn Badgley Explains Why He Liked THAT Part 2 ... (Collider.com)

Penn Badgley explains why he felt like the twist involving Joe Goldberg and Ed Speleers' Rhys in You Season 4 Part 2 felt refreshing.

He does that in order to bring out a side to Joe that Joe's probably trying to push away. The final handful of episodes picks up after Joe ( [Penn Badgley](https://collider.com/tag/penn-badgley/)) learned that Rhys (Ed Speleers) is the "Eat the Rich" killer. But in order to do that, you have to understand their mindset, and you have to get on board with the idea that they're making decisions because they think this is the best thing...I love the fact that he does some very broad, bold, bold suggestions. While Rhys was very much a real person, he and Joe never met until the moments leading up to his death. We got it with Forty in season two, and he was iconic for that reason — and also because James Scully is a great actor, and it was a great character. So, Joe sets out to prove it and put a stop to Rhys once and for all.

For more from the biggest stars in TV, listen to [The Radio Times Podcast](https://www.radiotimes.com/audio/podcasts/). But if the look on Marienne's face reveals anything, it's that she isn't done with this story of Joe and probably won't let his newfound fame continue if she has anything to do with it. The police will think it was Eddie that killed Rhys and then Nadia killed Eddie because of it – but Nadia has been set up for murder. But when recounting the story, Nadia and Eddie realise that Joe is such an obsessive that he would collect souvenirs of his past victims so they set off to his flat in the hope of getting evidence. Joe has killed him and in her daze, hands the knife (murder weapon) to Nadia. The tub of pills Joe had left in the cage previously were swapped round with some of the tablets Nadia got from Eddie, all in order to stage a suicide. He narrates that with the help of Kate, a cybersecurity team, publicists and Tom's former lieutenant Cynthia, search results have been scrubbed, news archives have been hacked and the Madre Linda chief of police was bribed all in order to allow Joe to wipe the slate clean. We also catch a glimpse of Rhys in the window reflection and as Joe says he's just "more honest" about killing now, season 4 ends with a positively eerie image of a grinning Joe, as smug as ever. But naturally, his family managed to cover it up and conceal it from the newspapers. Although he hoped to kill himself, he later wakes up in the hospital with Kate by his side and the two profess their love for one another. He doctors the murder scene, disposing of Hugo's body and afterwards, comes to a bridge to confront his imagined vision of Rhys. Early in the finale, Joe is faced with Kate's admission that she feels as though her father "owns" her, citing examples where Tom has destroyed her relationships and opened countless doors for her throughout her career.

You season 4 part 2 review: an incredible twist hiding in plain sight (Polygon)

[Ed. note: This will have spoilers for part 1.] A closeup of Rhys Montrose, wearing a black suit in front of a bookcase, ...

There is always a “You” that Joe is obsessing over, addressing in his thoughts, building a whole imaginary identity around a person he watches from afar and up close, never really accepting the real person in front of him over the version he created. This traps Joe as a pawn in a cat-and-mouse game between Rhys and his girlfriend’s father, as each wants Joe to kill the other. Two episodes into part 2, this season of You gets turned on its head when Joe arrives to kill Rhys Montrose and discovers he has no idea who Joe is. Instead, he settles for attempting to murder him by trapping him in a cellar set ablaze, which Joe survives — only to find that his new nemesis is running for mayor, and he might be the only person who knows the truth about him. Given his considerable resources, he also knows that Joe is not Jonathan Moore, and suspects his spotty history with dead women means that Joe is, in fact, a killer. While this sort of thing could conceivably lead somewhere good, it’s also a premise that could undo the show’s careful work to not overly empathize with or justify Joe, even as it remains firmly rooted in his perspective.

'You' Season 4 Finale Interview: Part 2 Twist and Ending, Explained (Hollywood Reporter)

You creator Sera Gamble on the twist of season 4 Part 2, the future of Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley) on the Netflix show and the Fight Club comparisons.

This has been the point of the show since the first frame, which is that you look at Joe and you think, “What a nice guy, real boyfriend material.” And then we keep telling you who he really is and then, somehow, some part of us keeps liking him and forgiving him over and over and over again. We see at the end of season four that “Rhys” is still present for him, but now he’s with Kate and has returned to New York. That’s within the vocabulary of what can happen in this world, and Joe is, to her, a much more noble figure than her dad ever was, because her dad was just greedy and ruthless and Joe is trying to help and save people, primarily. Knowing that Penn was directing the episode, it felt like it would be fun for everybody, and that it would be meaningful for him to direct actors that he had so much understanding with, that he had worked with so, so much. But being raised in the household she was raised in and having the father that she did, she’s not afraid of hearing that somebody has resorted to murder. The first thing that became clear to us was that she and Edward were going to have to get close enough that she trusted him. And getting to figure out how she would survive, and that her art — essentially being an artist and being a mother — is how she survives in the cage. She has to come up in the end as the truth-seeker of the season. The first thing that was appealing was that this was going to be a real challenge. “For better and for worse, I don’t have much interest in working on a season of TV that isn’t continuing to challenge me as a writer and challenge the writers room,” she explains. You have to have a great reason that you’re doing this, and then also have a lot of ideas up your sleeve about what to do with it when you jump into the deep end. We originally thought of it as the episode where we switch POV, which we like to do occasionally and finally could when we revealed she was there.

'You' Season 4 Showrunner Explains That Part 2 Twist (Collider.com)

You showrunner Sera Gamble explained why they chose to go with that insane twist in season four, part two.

We didn’t commit to it for this season until we knew we were doing the whodunnit, but we did keep a close eye on how crazy Joe was from season to season because we didn’t want it to come completely out of left field." Gamble also disclosed that her team kept a close eye on how insane Joe went from season to season and that she didn’t want to shy away from the concept. For better and for worse, I don’t have much interest in working on a season of TV that isn’t continuing to challenge me as a writer and challenge the writers room. But just as we thought the cycle stopped with Marienne (Tati Gabrielle), Part 2 of Season 4 shows that Joe actually did kidnap her, and he couldn't even remember doing so—as for him, it was Rhys who had a hand in every crime he actually committed himself. But at some point in the first half of Season 4, audiences were led to believe that Rhys Montrose (Ed Speleers) was the culprit this time around. Since the first season of You, we all know at this point that it's him, Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley); he's the problem, it's him.
