THE UMBRELLA ACADEMY - Theory Time!
I came up with a plot line for season 4, and it goes like this…
We know that the girl on the bike is a metaphor for God. So what if she’s causing the apocalypse?
What if when she says that Klaus can’t stay because he doesn’t belong, it’s because he has the Marigolds inside, and we know that the Marigolds come from Reginald’s world, so maybe Heaven as we know it isn’t the place where the creatures from other worlds (not humans) can go after dying, and that’s why Klaus ends up in the Void instead of Heaven. We never see Klaus meeting Ben on the other side, and when he talks to Reginald in S1, it’s the little girl who points him in another direction (probably away from heaven) and the girl isn’t really sure if she made Klaus, she says “I made everything so I must have made to you too” maybe she can feel that there is something inhuman about Klaus and that’s why she doesn’t like him. I mean, all the “I don’t like you so I won’t let you go to heaven” It seems a bit drastic, when you realize that Klaus isn’t that bad of a person, apart from drug addiction and the “troublemaker” part.
So the plot goes like this: it’s not really Viktor that causes the apocalypse, it’s God, but… because of Reginald.
She knows that someone has come along and created an imbalance in the world she created, therefore, “You’re not supposed to be here,” she keeps saying. “You can’t stay.”
Or if you don’t want to say that it’s God doing, you can say that the apocalypse is happening because of all of them, because of Reginald coming to earth and because of the Umbrellas and Sparrows having the Marigold when they were supposed to be normal children.
If this is the case, then ending the show like it ended in S3, with them without powers, and just living a normal life, no powers, no apocalypse, and just them as a family, going on with their lives, would have been perfect. But since that was the ending of the last season, and it’s not (or at least I hope they don’t re-use it) going to be the same ending. I think they’ll get their powers back.
So if Klaus dies again, which is very possible, and he regains his powers. i think he could come back and that, coupled with Reginald’s domination of this world, could trigger another apocalypse (especially if Klaus wants revenge, after last season’s betrayal). All of this could result in the siblings getting their powers back and realizing that for the world to be safe, they can’t be together.
And Five will have to divide them into timelines.
For example: Sloane and Luther could stay in the present but maybe not on the earth, maybe they’d decide to go to the Moon together. Allison wouldn’t care as long as she has Ray and Claire. Diego and Lila could go to the 80s. Viktor could ask to go back to Sissy and Harlan in the 60s.
I don’t know where Ben and Klaus would go, but I would like them to stick together. And Five would definitely go way back in time, since we know that the Commission’s quarters are located in 1950.
So that would be the end of the show. The siblings say their goodbyes and then get scattered through time. Only maybe when the timeline intersects, they would check on each other, make sure they’re okay, but never get all together again.
And Five grows old, watching them from the Commission Switchboard, watching them live their lives, and is glad to see them happy. He has done a good job. The world is safe. He was a good brother. And maybe in the way, he found a partner, named Dolores (real human)
But even if they all had the life they wanted, they still miss each other. And will forever do.
