The final episode of Paradise season 1, titled "The Day," presents a grave revelation about the disaster that drove 250,000 Americans underground, detailing a super volcano explosion that resulted in catastrophic events. The episode unfolds following a tense standoff between Xavier and billionaire Sinatra, revealing her claims that Xavier's wife may still be alive. A series of flashbacks illustrate the sheer devastation caused by the eruption, leading to tsunami waves that obliterated entire regions, effectively deepening the show's narrative complexities.
The Day brings multiple nightmares to life, bottles up catastrophe into suffocating quarters, and sheds much of the pulpy quality of the preceding six episodes; it's certainly one of the most troubling hours of TV I've ever witnessed.
Xavier, holding diabolical billionaire Sinatra at gunpoint, learns that his presumed dead wife may still be alive, confirmed through shortwave transmissions from the surface.
