We have reached the end of this story with our night crew that we have come to know over the past three years…I thought this would be a season finale for Penny Dreadful, like every other time when we reach this point of the show, but alas we get a definitive end…the chapter of this story concludes for our characters. Hence, here we go one last time.
In the penultimate episode of Penny Dreadful, we see the ramifications of Vanessa accepting Dracula’s kiss. Ethan, Sir Malcolm & Kaetenay arrive to an abandoned London covered in fog. Lily tells Victor something about her past…while Dorian finally gets a bit of revenge.
In the aftermath of the showdown between Ethan and his father last week on Penny Dreadful, he along with Sir Malcolm and Kaetenay are in rush to head back to London. Vanessa falls deeper into the darkness as she gets closer to the identity of Dracula. Dorian calls upon his debt he has on Victor…needing some help with Lily as she has become troublesome. And finally there is some happiness for Caliban after all this time.
This week on Penny Dreadful, we finally see what Dorian and Lily have been up to by setting their plans in motion…while Jekyll shows Victor a glimpse of what he can do in order to get Lily back. Vanessa continues her therapy sessions with Dr. Seward…while danger lures her way and Sir Malcolm along with Kaetenay are on the search of Ethan…as he gets help from a recent foe.
We have come to an end once again, and bleak does not even describe the season finale as my best friend told me when she watched it…in one word she summed up the finale as: desolate and she was not kidding. What a heartbreaking hour, but yet it was so beautifully done…so here we go one last time until next year.
Vanessa and Evelyn finally face off and prepare for battle, Sir Malcolm is going mad, Caliban gets himself into some trouble…while Lily and Dorian have some fun, and it’s another full moon so you know this doesn’t bode well for a certain someone.
