As Five tries to come up with ideas after the party last night. Finally, Reginald gathers everyone and makes one final appeal to rescue the world: Ring seven bells at the Hotel Oblivion to activate a vaguely defined fail-safe that will restore order to the entire cosmos. The problem? To pull it off, they’ll need at least seven crew members.
It’s time to make a final decision regarding whether or not to save the universe. A vote is taken. Diego, Viktor, Luther, Sloane, and Five are out; Allison, Lila, Klaus, and Ben are in. By a wide margin, Reginald Hargreeves’ surviving children (from two distinct timelines) have decided against exploring the mystery surrounding Hotel Oblivion. Reginald laments, “Centuries wasted, all because a different me was cruel to his children.
When Reginald goes to confront Luther, his ruthlessness, as we all know it, is put to devastating use. A flashback montage from Luther’s years of exile on the moon under his father’s command opens the episode. He spent years fulfilling Reginald’s wishes while acting alone and hearing nothing but silence in return. When Reginald passed away, he eventually went back home, only to find that his father had never even read the reports he had been submitting. This made Luther to realize his father was just getting rid of him
Even if Sloane provides Luther with the unwavering affection he should have had all along, Luther no longer needs his father. This Reginald may not be the same one who reared him physically. Old traumas, however, were difficult to overcome, which is why Luther becomes upset when Reginald behaves in an extremely unusual manner: He praises Luther and begs for pardon. It’s a sweet moment, but Reginald interrupts their embrace by transforming his palm into a spiky tentacle, instantly killing Luther.
