‘Graceland’ Season 2 'Faith 7' Finale: How Will it End? (Spoilers)


In Graceland season 2, episode 12 “Echoes” (last episode before the finale), the good guys seemed to have gotten really close to the end of the season-long case and are just a few steps away from taking down the Solano cartel and the corrupt LAPD Gang Task Force. Unfortunately, their efforts might not lead to a happy ending now that Briggs’ cover is blown, Charlie is kidnapped, and Lucia stole Sid Markham’s briefcase. Mike, Jakes, and Paige are in the clear, so I imagine they will come to the rescue. Below are the three major problems and my predictions on what will happen in the finale.


Problem 1
When Mike Warren stubbornly fought Sid on Federal property, not only did he ruin his reputation, he also unknowingly allowed Sid to slip a tracker into his pocket. Later in the episode, Sid infiltrates Graceland and scopes the place out with no one at home. He steals a handgun and sees a picture of the whole team before leaving. This clue implies to him that Briggs and Mike are on the same side.

Prediction:
- Perhaps the Graceland team has special security in the household and are notified when suspicious individuals sneak in. Briggs probably knows Sid invaded Graceland and has a story in mind just in case Sid questions him about his allegiance to Mike. His story could be that he is old friends with Mike, but is no longer loyal to him. - Maybe one of the Gracelanders went into a secret hiding spot when they realized an intruder was in the house. They can then notify the rest of the team about Sid.


Problem 2
Charlie should have been more careful of her surroundings when she was on her way to meet Amber to avoid getting kidnapped. Mike, Jakes, or Paige should have followed her. In fact, Jakes was on the lookout for Mike earlier in the season and followed him to Sulla’s sex trafficking warehouse just in case Mike needed backup.

Prediction:
- I would think that Mike, Jakes, or Paige would be saving Charlie since the others are tied up with their own issues to help. However, the small preview of the season 2 finale showed Briggs rescuing Charlie. I have no clue how he is able to do this if he is busy dealing with Sid on the way to Mexico, but it looks like Briggs and Charlie will be fine.


Problem 3
The briefcase of money that Carlos Solano will be giving to Sid Markham, his business partner, is stolen by Lucia. Johnny is shocked by this and obviously needs to find a way to get it back to Carlos or else the Graceland team cannot connect Sid to Solano and justify arresting them. The briefcase contains the marked bills that Jakes put in. The finale preview showed Johnny and Lucia with their heads against each other as if the end was near. There was a person behind them and it looked like the couple would be punished. Another clip showed a gun pointed at Johnny.

Prediction:
- Again, I would say that Mike, Jakes, or Paige will be saving Johnny. Since Briggs is on his way to Mexico, he might be able to help out as well, but he’d have to deal with Sid and his gang first.

How will the season end?
I would like for all of the villains to be put behind bars by the end of the finale, but something tells me that won’t happen. Maybe Sid Markham or Carlos Solano are able to escape and seek revenge in season 3 (if renewed). If not, maybe they all get put in jail, but one villain is shown to have a trick up their sleeves to get out in the future. That would also be revisited in the next season.

As for the good guys, I believe team Graceland makes it out okay except for Charlie and Mike who will be severely injured as shown in the finale preview. I also wonder if they will relocate Graceland since Sid knows its current location. He is definitely not going to keep quiet and will more than likely use it as leverage. Then again, he might not make it out of this season. Let’s hope the Gracelanders bring justice and end this case once and for all.
