Curious to know about the surprising turn in the finale of “We Were Liars” and its implications on Cadence and the Sinclair clan? A devastating blaze, concealed recollections, and eerie disclosures gradually expose the reality behind a fateful vacation season, paving the way for what lies ahead.
Here’s what Cadence finally remembers and how it opens the door for Season 2.
What is the twist in We Were Liars’ ending?
In the last installment of “We Were Liars”, Cadence remembers that she, along with Johnny, Mirren, and Gat, had ignited a fire at Clairmont that fateful summer in 2016.
The plan was to burn down the house to represent the family’s excessive wealth and internal strife. However, only Cadence managed to flee the flames, as the others were unable to escape. Trapped on the upper levels of the burning building were Johnny and Mirren. In a valiant attempt to rescue Cadence, Gat re-entered the fire and perished in the process.
During the summer of 2017, Cadence unwittingly engages with the spirits of the Liars, thinking they were alive. Her past traumas and memory lapses concealed the reality until the final episode. Later on, she confides in ghost Gat that she postponed her escape to retrieve her grandmother Tipper’s black pearl necklace. This decision ultimately resulted in Gat’s demise. Upon hearing this, he acknowledges that they all made mistakes and expresses that he bears no ill will towards her.
Grandpa Harris secretly confides that he’s certain the blaze wasn’t due to bad wiring. He intends to conceal this fact. He proposes giving Cadence their inheritance and control over the family fortune. However, Cadence turns down the offer and decides to abandon the island and forgo the family wealth.
How does the ending of We Were Liars set up Season 2?
The television adaptation introduces an unique element absent from the novel: Carrie communicating with her departed son, Johnny as a ghost. After succumbing to relapse, she admits to Johnny’s spirit that she believed he had abandoned her. His response, “I don’t believe I can,” suggests that he may still linger on the island.
With this new development, Season 2 of the show has the opportunity to draw inspiration from E. Lockhart’s 2022 prequel novel, Family of Liars. Showrunners Julie Plec and Carina Adly Mackenzie have secured rights for both books, signaling their intent to delve deeper into the Sinclair family history. The prequel focuses on a past generation and may shed light on why the family’s tragic patterns emerged.
