Umbrella Academy Season 4 Episode 6 Details

• Created for TV by Steve Blackman

• Story by : Jesse McKeown

The Keepers set a blockade around Ben and Jennifer’s building, where their bodies have been severely mutated as a result of them interacting with each other. Viktor tries purging the durango now inside Ben, but fails and Ben and Jennifer merge to become the Cleanse.

Abigail, hidden inside the body of Gene Thibedeau, kills his wife Jean when she begins to get suspicious. With both Thibedeau’s dead, Abigail tells Reginald that she brought about the Cleanse because she shouldn’t have been brought back to life, and the timeline should be reset again.

Meanwhile the Umbrella Academy team up to try but fail to stop the Bennifer creature as the combined powers of Durango and Marigold inside them is overwhelming.

Five, dejected at failing to stop the Cleanse, rides the timeline subway alone, until he meets Fives from other timelines. They tell him that there is only supposed to be one timeline, and the splitting and merging of timelines, as well as the constant threat of apocalypses, is due to the existence of the marigold and their families.

When Reginald first released the marigold in 1989, a side effect of women getting pregnant was also the creation of multiple timelines. Five goes back to his siblings, and tells them they need to let the Cleanse absorb them and their marigold. In doing so, they will cease to exist, but will also create only one singular timeline without any apocalypses. Lila saves her family and Allison’s daughter Claire, then joins the siblings as they all get absorbed, destroying all but one timeline.

In the one timeline, with the Marigold and Durango destroyed, friends and foes of the past live out their normal lives on a typical day where nothing exceptional happens. Finally the Umbrella Academy saved the day.
