Sep 8, 2014 · After a torturous week of suspense, The Leftovers concludes its freshman season with a gloriously horrifying finale in which Matt digs Kevin out of a hole (and Patti into one), Jill makes not...

After spending most of the first season utterly traumatised by the Sudden Departureand seemingly on the verge of completely losing his mind, Kevin finally achieved a measure of peace in the final episode, coming to terms with the fall-out from his confrontation with Patti (and agreeing to read the Bible over her grave), admitting to Matt that he’d ...
Having masterminded the plan to put the fantastically creepy Dummies of the Departed in people’s houses, Laurie then spent much of the final episode trying to convince inconveniently arriving daughter Jill to leave the Guilty Remnant house. After breaking her vow of silence to warn Kevin that Jill was in danger – i.e. trapped in a burning house her...
Finally forcing the confrontation with her mother she’d been dying to have all season, Jill then found herself trapped in the Guilty Remnant house as riots broke out throughout Mapleton. Saved by her father, our last glimpse was of her seeming to accept Nora as the new woman in Kevin’s life.
Having been left literally holding the baby after Christine walked out on him, Tom finally took decisive action leaving Wayne and Christine’s baby on Kevin’s doorstep (where she was found by Nora) before reaching out to his mother in reconciliation.
After suffering the final episode’s most horrible moment – the scene where she arrived to see dummies of her family in place round her table – an all-but-destroyed Nora prepared to leave Mapleton, stating in a letter to Kevin that: “I want to believe it’s still possible to get close to someone, but it’s easier not to.” Luckily she changed her mind ...
Nora’s brother Matt appeared to have rekindled some form of faith, giving succour to the wounded Guilty Remnant after lending Kevin a confessional ear and helping him come to terms with Patti’s death and the events since the Sudden Departure. Lindelof and Perrotta have confirmed that the troubled preacher is one of those who returns for season two,...
Liv Tyler’s often-frustrated Guilty Remnant member was last seen bleeding but defiant and presenting Kevin with a note reading: “We made them remember”. The strong suggestion is that, with Patti dead and Laurie apparently leaving the group, Meg is the new leader of the Guilty Remnant.
The head of the Guilty Remnant cult was found by Kevin covered in blood, having killed herself. She’s deader than dead and off the show right? Well, hang on there, because this is a Lindelof production and he has confirmed that Ann Dowd, who played Patti, will return this season – although in what form isn’t quite clear. “We don’t want to use her a...
The show’s charismatic cult leader is definitely out of the picture, however – his dead body having been hauled out of a diner by the Swat team. Yet, while Holy Wayne is gone, he won’t be forgotten – his final act to grant Kevin a wish with the sad benediction: “I think I may be a fraud, but if you made a wish and it work then that would mean I was...
Does the dog-killer of Mapleton even actually exist? Not seen at all in the finale, our final glimpse of the possible Guardian Angel/possible figment of Kevin’s imagination was of him announcing: “Well I tried” before disappearing from the woods and leaving Kevin with a very dead Patti to deal with. The Leftovers returns to HBO on Sunday night at 9...
