It's changed all of us
Welcome back everyone it's charlie this is going to be my umbrella academy
season 2 video explaining the ending with that big teaser for season three
was going to be yes they've been renewed for season
three so they will be doing more episodes
so if you're new to the channel be sure to subscribe to get all the videos
and even though it should go without saying as the title of the video implies
careful for spoilers from all of umbrella academy season two so we'll be
explaining everything that happens all the big secrets that they reveal and
what's going on with season three i'll just number these as we go along to
stay organized there were a bunch of easter eggs and a bunch of comic book
references that they get into even though they changed
a lot about the comic book plot from umbrella academy
love the big shout out for watchmen during this too the end is nigh
but as you all saw the umbrella academy is finally able to reunite and meet with
their father reginald hargreaves in the past but he can't stand them
just like it kind of seems like he couldn't stand them when he was trying
to raise them like he just has this deep dislike of children why would i ever
adopt seven children if i hate children but he
does wind up talking to five and a lot of other people in earlier episodes
about the uncertainty of time travel and how
everything can change in a matter of seconds and how even if you think you're
doing everything right and you know the future even changing
minor things in the past can have vast consequences in the future
so obviously this is all set up for that big twist at the end
as well as that new time travel superpower that five develops in the
finale it's also important to note when you
think about them messing with the past obviously there's a lot of things that
they mess with even though it seems like they're able to fix things by the end
they still make a lot of really big changes
like diego for instance did everything he could to mess with mother in the past
resulting in her turning against reginald hargreaves they also joke about
him letting pogo loose you let my chimp loose
more on that in the new future timeline that they create in a second
so even though it seems like they fixed everything in the end they did not fix
everything they eventually learned that it's vanya again who caused the
apocalypse because as diego says vanya is always going to be
the bomb but the whole reason she causes it this time
is because she's being tortured into psychosis by the fbi who thinks that
she's a russian through that whole subplot with the wife
harlan and her husband she breaks loses control of her powers
again and causes this big explosion the reason why it causes the apocalypse or
leads to the apocalypse is because the fbi building where the
blast goes off is so close to jfk's procession in dallas that the fbi the
government and kennedy blame it on a russian soviet plot
because it's the cold war so kennedy declares war on russia
there's a big invasion then full-scale nuclear war
leading to the apocalypse that we saw in episode one
they are able to stop her ben sacrifices himself to say vanya then passes on to
heaven as he implies the great white light is what he calls
it like a voice is telling me to move on in a flashback you actually learned that
a younger version of klaus during his funeral convinced ghost ben
to ignore the voice of god or whatever you want to call it and just
stays a ghost on planet earth hanging out with him
and now in this moment in the future technically their future even though
we're in the past he's finally moving on like he should
have done years ago so he's like don't be sad for me i should have done this a
long time ago the team then realizes that vanya
accidentally passed some of her power to harlan
when she saved him earlier in the season he's not able to control it and is
just going off the chain that's what the red lights and the special energy are
when she's giving him mouth to mouth trying to revive him they kind
of explained this during season one so remember that special red energy that
you see reginald release on his home planet
those lights as they sort of escape in the flashbacks when his original wife
lay dying and the others of his kind seem like they're fleeing their planet
in the rockets that is the special energy that gave
all the children around the world powers and caused them to be born under those
weird circumstances at the same time so the showrunner
explained that this is vanya just sharing some of that special power with
harlan so that's why even when she takes back most of her power in the finale
from him harlan is still left with some special
abilities like you see him levitating that bird as they're driving away
the bird is also clever foreshadowing for the sparrow academy twists at the
end they also finally explain who and what
lila really is during that big final battle
she's secretly one of their sisters she was one of the
many special children born all over the world on the same day
with special abilities her ability is just defined as power
mimicry she can copy the powers of anyone she encounters even at great
distance as it's shown during her battle with vanya when she's standing really
far away but she's still able to copy vanya's powers
they reveal that the handler wanted to control her as an asset
and plant her as a mole inside the umbrella academy so she had number five
take out her parents once they kill the handler lila then
freaks out takes one of the briefcases and just time travels away to who knows
where until season three it seems like she still cares about
diego on some level and the family as well as diego tried to accept her as
one of their own like you're one of us you're part of the family you just never
knew it make all the game of thrones sister loving jokes that you want
because now luther is also not the biggest sister lover inside the group
so she'll probably help them with a much bigger threat in season 3 even though
they're implying that the sparrow academy is this bigger threat
there's probably something even bigger that they all have to come together to
stop that probably gets into some of the
hotel oblivion stuff from the comics so i'll explain that in a second too
but then the team thinks that they're returning to 2019 a couple days
after the original apocalypse and everything is fine but
reginald hargreaves is alive now in 2019 and instead of number five's picture
above the fireplace it's ben's and it's revealed that he never
wound up creating the umbrella academy instead he created something called the
sparrow academy in a very much alive version of ben
shows up followed by five other shadowy teenagers
in a floating green box that seems like it's sentient
it just implies that reginald founded a very different version of the team
in this version of the timeline and some of the things that they changed in the
past the things that they messed with caused these big butterfly effect
changes they're just left to wonder if these are
their enemies or what is going to happen now what new catastrophe have they
inadvertently caused because as we learned from the last two seasons
they're usually the ones that wind up causing the apocalypse that they're
trying to solve usually they find out about a disaster but then in trying to
stop it it becomes this big self-fulfilling
prophecy this is also where we get to the hotel oblivion story line from the
comics in the comics the hotel oblivion is a
special prison where reginald hargreaves who we learn as an alien
uses to house all the super villains and worst beings of the universe that they
catch during season two the show keeps
referring to reginald's quote-unquote interests
in the dark side of the moon so it's likely that that's where the tv version
of hotel oblivion is located in the comic book story line this
alternate version of an umbrella academy team
shows up at the end of the hotel oblivion story line
meeting the main team and they have a similar reaction like who are you
where did you come from are you friend or foe what's going on here why is there
an alternate version of the umbrella academy
running around so if you look at the outlines of these alternate team members
it seems like there's still two girls and four boys just like the
original team i'm assuming that the green box is like
the alternate version of pogo on the team because there's no pogo anywhere to
be found here in his pictures and above the fireplace
so in this new timeline think about how mother broke it off with reginald in the
past after she learned some of his darker secrets like i can't be a part of
this i can't be with you peace i'm out of here through the
flashbacks and pogo's origin story you learn that he was always more loyal to
mother so i'm assuming that in the new timeline
reginald never got back together with her and reconciled and she just went off
to do her own thing pogo going with her so mother might also
be alive in present day 2019 as well so the
big tease of season three is also that all these characters who have died
are now alive but they're alternate versions also remember
since they went so far to tease harlan's powers at the end of the finale
an older adult version of harlan might come back to and have something to do
with causing a new apocalypse or helping them prevent it
and as for why it's called the sparrow academy and not the umbrella academy
earlier in the season when they were thumbing through all of his files
in his office you look at his desk there there's actually a symbol of a sparrow
on one of the files that's probably the inspiration for creating the
quote-unquote sparrow academy and i think in the new
timeline all these kids are different because reginald hargreaves released
that special energy into the world later in the timeline than normal so all
the kids around the world weren't born till later in the timeline
that explains why ben and all the other characters are dressed looking like
they're kind of teenagers and because in the past when he met them
he felt like the og team was such a bunch of screw-ups that
he decided to swerve on them in the future and adopt kids that he felt could
become superior to the og team the only real
funny thing that i haven't addressed in the video yet though is that twist
ending with the swede the one that's left alive he winds up joining klaus's
cult destiny's children obviously that's
meant to be a big joke about destiny's child the group
and him reciting the lyrics don't go chasing waterfalls like it was a
scripture the way it seems like they're playing
this time travel twist is more of an avengers endgame style twist where even
if you change the past you can't really affect your future you just create
alternate new realities and they're just living in this new alternate reality
where things are a little bit different in the future with a different version
of the team but everyone let me know in the comments if there's any big
questions you have or anything you felt like i didn't address
during this video i tried to hit all the big stuff obviously the big moments
they didn't say when season 3 is supposed to be released but i'm assuming
they're going to start filming that sometime
by at least early next year in other related netflix
things they're working on stranger things season 4 again right now so we'll
probably get a new stranger things season 4 trailer sometime
early next year they'll probably release that sometime towards the end of next
year but everyone click here for my brand new
stranger things season 4 trailer video and click here for my
brand new benedict cumberbatch doctor strange 2 video
