Recap
In the thrilling Season 2 finale of “The Afterparty,” audiences are treated to a double dose of campy horror and dramatic twists courtesy of the mother-daughter duo, Zoé and Vivian. The episode takes an unexpected turn as their stories diverge but eventually converge to piece together the intriguing puzzle that has been unfolding throughout the season.
The primary question that lingers throughout the episode revolves around Zoé’s whereabouts during Edgar and Grace’s afterparty. Danner, determined to unravel this mystery, is joined by Police Sheriff Howie, who is eager to pin the groom’s murder on Grace following Isabel’s shocking accusation. However, as the episode progresses, it becomes increasingly clear that Grace is likely innocent, leaving it up to Aniq and Danner to unravel the identity of the real killer.
Under the scrutinizing gaze of her fiancé, Zoé finally discloses her season-long secret: she was not present at the afterparty. However, her absence had nothing to do with Edgar’s murder. Instead, she reveals that she had a falling out with her sister and intended to leave an apology note in her room. However, her plans took an unexpected turn when she encountered the Minnows’ vicious dog, leading to a chaotic encounter where she believed she accidentally killed the animal.

With Zoé’s revelation, Aniq and Danner piece together a crucial clue from Edgar’s party meltdown: the phrase “Devil’s Dog.” In a darkly comedic turn of events, Zoé’s throw of the dog landed it on Isabel’s trampoline, which is what Edgar witnessed during the party. Astonishingly, the dog is not dead but alive and well, as Isabel summons it, proving Zoé’s innocence in the dog’s fate but leaving the central mystery of Edgar’s murder unsolved. It is now time to dig deeper into the heart of the matter.
Ending Explanation
The gripping conclusion of “The Afterparty” Season 2 finally unveils the identity of Edgar Minnows’ killer, and it turns out to be someone unexpected. Throughout the season, the show masterfully led us to suspect Sebastian, Edgar’s conman best friend, of being the murderer. However, Sebastian’s account of events ultimately proves to be truthful, and he is not the culprit.
Surprisingly, the real deceiver turns out to be Funcle Ulysses. In his truthful retelling of events, Ulysses plants a deceptive detail about suspecting Grace to be his daughter and confronting Vivian about it. When Vivian recounts her conversation with Ulysses, she conveniently omits any mention of Grace’s paternity. Instead, she shares that Ulysses tried to persuade her to run away with him, now that her daughters were getting married. This inconsistency catches the attention of Danner and Aniq, leading them to uncover the truth.
Ironically, it was Edgar who unwittingly introduced Ulysses into the mix as a surprise for his bride. Ulysses harbored no intention to kill Edgar, as he had no personal grudge against his niece’s husband. His real motive was to eliminate his brother, Feng, in the hope of winning the love of his life. Ulysses had earlier mentioned to Danner and Aniq that he used to collect DNA samples from his niece, potentially his daughter.
He concocted a poisonous brew with Devil’s Trumpet in his horn and laced Edgar’s whiskey with it, intending it for Feng. However, Feng didn’t take a sip as he was preoccupied with making his son-in-law try “Baobing.” Both Edgar and Roxana ended up drinking from the deadly glass meant for Feng. Initially denying the accusations, Ulysses eventually confesses his crime of passion when Vivian attempts to drink from his poisonous horn.
Ulysses is taken into custody, and the story wraps up as expected. Aniq and Zoé propose to each other, Grace and Hannah find happiness together, Isabel and Sebastian withhold their support from Grace, Travis returns to his usual life, and Danner, inspired by Aniq, decides to venture into movies, choosing the story of Xavier’s murder over Edgar’s. She manages to secure a star-studded cast featuring Keke Palmer, Elizah Wood, Jaleel White, Gemma Chan, and even teases a potential appearance by Daniel Radcliffe in the third season.
“The Afterparty” Season 2 Episode 10 is a gripping and satisfying conclusion to the murder mystery anthology series. With unexpected twists, humorous moments, and a talented cast, this episode keeps viewers engaged till the very end. The intricate puzzle of Edgar’s murder is finally solved, revealing the surprising identity of the killer. As the season wraps up, the characters’ individual storylines also find resolution, leaving audiences eagerly anticipating what the third season may have in store.
