Lori adopts DJ, Mare also gets the custody of his grandson Drew, as his mother accepts that she is not sober, Faye and Frank get engaged and we all think it is a happy ending and feel good but the rest of the story is left. Mare gets a call from Mr. Carrol and when she reaches there, he can't seem to remember the problem and we all think it is nothing but after some talking about things like the affair between Mare's mom and Mr. Carrol (P.s that was a hilarious scene), he finally seems to remember about a theft where he could not find his gun but now it is back at its place. Mare thinks of it as Mr. Carrol has forgotten about where he had put the gun as he seems to have issues with remembering stuff until he states that the gun was a cult detective, the same gun that was used to kill Erin which they still hadn't found and Mr. Carrol reveals that Ryan Ross would work there too. Mare finally looks into the CCTV camera and sees Ryan Ross, the son of Lori and John Ross, getting out of the storeroom and that is when Mare knew who was the real killer. When she gets to Ryan's school and the moment he sees Mare, he starts to run and reaches his mother, but Mare finally arrests Ryan and we get to know the real story that is more painful. Ryan knew that his father has a habit of cheating and he also knew about his relationship with Erin and that is why John was asking Ryan to be silent. Ryan thinks of Erin as someone who is going to be the reason for the divorce between her parents and when he sees the texts of Erin telling John to come to the park he decides to text Erin through her father's phone and goes to the park with the stolen gun of Mr. Carrol. At the park, Erin tries to snatch away the gun and it accidentally shoots her, but Ryan only wanted to scare Erin away from his family. The ending was sad as Ryan goes to juvenile, a kid who knew nothing gets into the mess because of his father's mistakes. In the end, Mare decides to continue therapy and finally confronts the grief she was trying to suppress and understands that it was not her mistake. She also fixes the broken relationship with her mother and her daughter, at the end Lori also understands that it is not Mare's mistake that her husband and son are in jail. Was That A Happy Ending for Mare? Yes, throughout the show Mare was suffering because of his son's death, and in the end, it gets better for her, the ending is satisfying and the best any of the characters could have got. Will There Be Mare Of Easttown Season 2? No, there will not be a second season, as the case was solved in the last episode, there are no loose threads. The series is described as a miniseries so only seven episodes are justified. The makers may showcase a different case for Mare, but there is no news about that. So not expecting a new season is the best choice. MUST READ: HBO Max August 2022 Releases That You Should Not Miss!
