Nine Perfect Strangers Episode 5 Ending Explained
In the evening, the group gathers to celebrate Zoe’s birthday. Everyone seems relatively relaxed, except Heather, who is still a bit shocked at hearing her son’s voice and then jumped off a cliff into the lake with Napoleon. After Zoe’s birthday speech, Napoleon begins to sing a song, and little by little the guests begin to pair up and dance.
Amid this atmosphere of light, Zoe notices that her brother is sitting some distance away, holding a candle. Masha notices that Zoe is looking into the distance and seems to realize what the young woman is seeing. She walks over and whispers in Zoe’s ear, and the episode ends with a vision of Zach sitting down, holding a candle.
What exactly is Masha whispering in Zoe’s ear? Although he speaks in Russian, his words translate as “This is you. You are the key. Those simple words, and Masha’s expression of surprise and pride earlier, seem to tell us that she really knows that Zoe is hallucinating and also that she can see her late brother Zach. Most importantly, she calls Zoe “the key,” which means that Masha has been searching for a specific person who seems to have the power to see spirits.
While we don’t know the reason for her research, it opens the plot to a much deeper level and sheds some light on Masha’s possible motivations for creating the Tranquillum house and drugging her clients. Perhaps all this time he has been searching for someone who is “the key” and has finally found it in the unlikely character of young Zoe. Of course, what Masha will do with this “key” remains a sinister question that will likely be answered in future episodes.
What makes it really scary is when Masha, at the end of the episode, asks Zoe if she can see it. This means that Masha is also aware of the presence of the dead child and seems to indicate that Masha, in addition to all her mysterious and experimental procedures, is also interested in some aspect of the spirit world. This could be the result of your near-death experience.
Separately, we see a brief flashback of a dying man at Tranquillum House, and although his fate is not revealed, it is possible that Masha’s exploration of the spirit world is linked in some way, another to a death in retirement.
