WARNING: If you don't want to know what happened in this episode, don't read this photo recap!
It's the season finale, and we've already got our first stand off! The Lambda defectors and the Port Moore runaways both want to get on that chopper and get the hell out of jive.
362865
Winston's team is distracted by a troupe of ghosts, giving the Lambda trio a window to make their getaway in the helicopter. But it doesn't go so well: the chopper collides with the forcefield stretched over Port Moore, flips over, loses control, and collapses on the ground. Getting out of here is going to be harder than anyone imagined.
362866
Landis, Billy, Daphne, and Roman assemble outside to witness the helicopter fly and fail. They're desperate to put an end to all this madness. Landis has an idea: if they put the artifact, now completely intact, back into the particle accelerator, maybe it will turn everything back to normal. There's just one snag...
362867
To restart the accelerator, they're going to need to shut down the power to the rest of the town. So some people are going to need to "die" in order to fend off the ghosts that will inevitably descend on the machine. Landis, Billy, and Val volunteer. They need one more person. Who's it gonna be?
362868
Daphne? Guess it's gonna be Daphne.
362869
The Chieftain bar erupts in a pre-possible-apocalypse party, and Roman steps out for some air. He's met by Maggie, who urges him to make up his mind carefully: the spirits are in charge of this town now, she included. Does he really want to change that?
362870
Dr. Clark mans the particle accelerator, putting his life on the line to vanquish the ghosts.
362871
Before they go into the breach, Billy has to tell Landis something: every time he was drawn back from the brink, death took a little life out of him. His arm is starting to deteriorate. This doesn't bode well.
362880
No time to consider contingencies. Roman sets the machine in motion, and yanks the volunteers' spirits out of their bodies. They then transport themselves to the accelerator room.
362881
Once the particle accelerator room is cleared, Roman inserts a capsule containing the meteorite into the machine. This should do the trick…
362872
It causes the accelerator to release a surge of energy that courses through the entirety of Port Moore, and shuts down its power.
362873
Except when it turned on, it didn't open the portal into the other dimensions like it did the last time for Billy. Hard luck. That's just when the ghosts start to plot their overthrow. Then Billy realizes that to reach death's door, you have to be literally dead. Like, 100% dead.
362874
Billy offers himself up (yet again), and Dr. Clark kills him as humanely as possible.
362875
Shortly after Clark smokes Billy, he gets to smoking some ghosts who invade the church where the bodies of the other volunteers are being "kept safe".
362876
Before Billy steps through the portal of death's door, he and Roman have a heart-to-heart. Turns out the reason that Billy's dad wanted to drive Roman's mom out of town is that Billy got her pregnant… with Roman. So he's Roman's dad. And with that, he steps into the other realm.
362877
Looks like Billy's act of heroism worked. The ghosts have disappeared, all the volunteers return to their bodies (except for Billy's of course) and there's laughter and rejoicing all around. Landis is pretty shook up about the whole thing.
362878
And Roman… well, looks like Roman blew Port Moore off. He was tired of being called a freak, and he and Daphne took to the high seas on a yacht.
362879
Or is it Daphne? Sure looks like Maggie. Did Maggie sneak into Daphne's body when she was under? Sure looks like she did. And Roman's fixing to reap the rewards. Well, well, well!
