The bodies begin to pile up by the end of The Night Manager Season 2 Episode 6 Review, and everything comes down to a single, explosive episode. The finale raises one crucial question: can Jonathan Pine finally bring Richard Roper down for good, or will the dangerous double life he has led for two seasons ultimately destroy him? The Night Manager season 2 episode 6 delivers the answer in a tense and brutal conclusion to the BBC and Prime Video hit series starring Tom Hiddleston, Hugh Laurie, Olivia Colman, and an outstanding supporting cast.
The final episode revolves around a massive weapons drop that could push Colombia into full-scale civil war. A plane loaded with arms is prepared for takeoff, bound for the Cabreras’ jungle camp. However, Teddy has his own agenda. Turning against his father, he secretly feeds Jonathan Pine crucial details about the shipment. Together with Sally, Jonathan devises a plan to divert the plane to a different landing zone, cutting the Cabreras off from the weapons they need. Sally frantically tries to reach Basil to coordinate an international response and deploy Colombian tactical forces to seize the arms once the plane touches down.
Roxana tries to get Jonathan killed at Roper’s request
As Jonathan and Martin track the diverted plane, a call from Roxana changes everything. She claims Roper’s men have found her and insists she barely escaped, begging Jonathan to come get her. Despite clear warning signs, Jonathan and Martin head to the location, fully aware it could be a trap.
Roper watches the situation unfold through CCTV as Roxana steps off the bus. Before Jonathan reaches her, Teddy calls with a warning, telling him to ignore Roxana and focus on the mission. Roxana attempts to lure Jonathan into revealing his position, but Jonathan sees through the ploy. Chaos erupts when Roper’s gunmen open fire on another vehicle, allowing Jonathan to slip away unharmed.
The Night Manager Season 2 Episode 6 Review: Teddy kills Juan while waiting for Jonathan
Back at the meeting point, Juan grows suspicious of Teddy. Demanding proof that Teddy contacted the Cabreras, he insists on checking his phone. The confrontation quickly turns violent, and Teddy kills Juan during the struggle. Before dying, Juan reveals he always knew Roper planned to abandon him in Colombia while Teddy escaped the consequences.
Meanwhile, Mayra reaches out to Roper, urging him to halt the operation until Jonathan is eliminated. Roper refuses. He warns her that if Jonathan interferes, he will retaliate by exposing her role in Rex Mayhew’s murder. Back at Roper’s compound, Roxana’s failure only deepens Roper’s mistrust, and her position becomes increasingly precarious.
Teddy takes Jonathan to the Cabreras to convince them that Roper double-crossed them
In the jungle, Teddy pretends Jonathan is his captive while meeting the Cabreras. He uses photos and manipulated audio recordings to convince them that Roper and “Matthew Ellis” were plotting behind their backs. Jonathan endures brutal interrogation and torture as part of the ruse. Teddy’s performance is disturbingly convincing, pushing the Cabreras toward believing Roper betrayed them.
Jonathan claims special forces are closing in and that Roper plans to leave Colombia as a hero once the rebels are eliminated. The plan works — but at a heavy cost. Jonathan is beaten severely, barely surviving the ordeal.
Angela Burr returns in a big way
In Medellín, Sally finally secures Supreme Court Justice Consuelo Arbenz and gets her to safety. When she calls Basil for backup, Angela Burr unexpectedly answers, confirming Basil has been killed. The revelation shifts the balance of power.
Back in London, Sandy Langbourne is intercepted and confronted by Angela in a secluded parking garage. Armed with overwhelming evidence, Angela gives him a choice: betray Roper and Mayra or spend the rest of his life in prison. She then turns her attention to Mayra, sending incriminating photos and allowing paranoia to do the rest. Mayra soon realizes the net is closing, as Angela presents undeniable proof of her crimes.
Angela receives confirmation from Colombia that authorities are waiting for the plane — just as everything begins to unravel.
Roper puts the weapon on a different plane, double-crossing Teddy
At the Cabreras’ camp, Teddy secretly frees Jonathan, reminding him that absolute loyalty to Roper must be maintained for the plan to succeed. Soon after, Roper arrives and witnesses the child soldiers in the camp without a trace of remorse.
The Cabreras confront Roper, believing they have uncovered his betrayal. Just as Teddy prepares to kill him, Roper receives a phone call revealing the truth: the diverted plane never carried the weapons. Roper had split the shipment, anticipating Jonathan’s interference. The real weapons arrive safely at the camp. When Sally opens the intercepted cargo, she finds only a rose — a cruel message from Roper.
Roper kills Teddy, his own son
With Teddy exposed, Roper feigns mercy before shooting his son in the head without hesitation. He then hands Jonathan over to the Cabreras. At the last possible moment, Martin launches a desperate rescue, opening fire and helping Jonathan escape. Martin is eventually overwhelmed and killed, while Jonathan flees, haunted by the sound of gunshots behind him.
