Official Synopsis[edit | edit source]

Magic. Science. Power. Revenge. Destinies clash in an epic final chapter, igniting an all-out war.^[1]

Plot[edit | edit source]

Jinx cuts her long hair short. She douses the Last Drop in gasoline and sets it ablaze. Lastly, she detonates a grenade in her hands, attempting suicide. However, Ekko arrives just in time, rewinding time by four seconds. Though it takes several more rewinds for him to find the right words, he successfully convinces her not to kill herself.

Mel, Jayce, Vi, and Caitlyn assemble in the dungeons beneath the capitol building and plan their defense strategy. Jayce needs everyone to buy him as much time as they can so that he can shut down the hexgates.

The battle ensues, with Noxian soldiers fighting the Enforcers on the docks of Piltover. Vi carries a fallen enforcer on her back and sprints across a catwalk. She carries the enforcer behind Piltovan lines to get them medical attention. When her mask is removed, Vi sees that it’s Gert, who perishes seconds later.

Loris is operating a smaller variant of the hexgates, launching shipping containers into the Noxian forces.

Ambessa is fighting on the front lines. From a sniper position, Caitlyn fires at her. However, Ambessa is wearing Rictus' rookern on her arm. The runes absorb the magic from Caitlyn’s hextech rifle. After Ambessa blocks several shots, a Noxian ship fires upon Caitlyn’s perch, compromising her position. Afterwards, Ambessa signals the ship. The soldiers release a colossal human, infused with shimmer, dragging Viktor's sphere on a cart.

Jayce remains at the hexgate failsafe chamber, disabling it one power cell at a time.

Shimmer-infused Noxians collapse on Loris and Vi’s perch. Loris takes a volley of crossbow bolts, killing him.

Caitlyn, Maddie, and Steb take a squad of enforcers to flank Viktor’s entourage. They carry a bomb meant for Viktor himself. The enforcers throw gas bombs that shroud the area in dark green smoke, giving the gas mask-wearing enforcers an advantage as the Noxians begin to cough and wheeze. The enforcers advance, with the one carrying the bomb crawling along the ground until they get stabbed by a soldier. Steb dispatches the soldier and takes the bomb. Though his mask is knocked off, he places the bomb on Viktor’s sphere and arms it, signaling to Caitlyn that the detonation is imminent. However, the explosion never comes: the bomb has been sabotaged with a nail in the gears. As Caitlyn looks on in confusion, she is knocked unconscious by a rifle to the head.

Caitlyn wakes up on her knees. The Noxians have lined up the remaining enforcers, holding them at spearpoint, kneeling with their hands behind their heads. Maddie, a traitor, is pointing the hextech rifle at Caitlyn’s head. Ambessa arrives, and Maddie presents the rifle to her. Ambessa dismantles it and tosses the pieces to the ground. Maddie, with her own rifle, goes to execute Caitlyn, but she dodges the shot and elbows Maddie to the side. However, Ambessa stabs Caitlyn in the gut and beckons Maddie to resume the execution. As Maddie fires a second time, a magical sphere surrounds her. The bullet ricochets inside the sphere until it lands in Maddie’s head, killing her.

Mel, the source of the magic, emerges from a nearby building. She pleads with her mother to spare the enforcers’ lives, but Ambessa says Mel is “still a fox.” She calls on her soldiers, who all form a battle stance in unison.

Unexpectedly, loud music blares in the distance, growing closer. Jinx has converted the wrecked airship engine from her lair into a functioning flying machine: a hot air balloon steered by propellers at the base. The ship launches paint bombs which explode in numerous colors. Ekko and the Firelights leap from the ship, riding their hoverboards. Emerging from the smoke of the paint bombs, Sevika, with yet another new arm, leads a ragtag group of Zaunites to attack the Noxians. With the Noxians distracted, the enforcers get back on their feet and retrieve their rifles. Ekko knocks out the giant man dragging Viktor’s sphere.

Jinx brandishes a Rhino, a combination of Pow-Pow and Fishbones all-terrain heavy weapon gun, and opens fire on the Noxians at Vi’s perch. As the battle resumes, the pianist moves Loris’s body aside from the controls of the hexgate variant. He takes aim, but a shimmer-infused soldier blocks the shipping container. Vi punches the soldier into the loading zone, where he is sandwiched by the container as it slides into place. Finally, the pianist fires the container directly into Viktor’s sphere, but when the smoke clears, the split-open sphere is empty. Mel asks, “Where is Viktor?”

From the hexclaw newly attached to his body, Viktor fires a laser that easily pierces through the door to the hexgates.

Suddenly, the battlefield is swarmed by Viktor’s robots, including a newly galvanized Warwick. They grapple any of Ambessa’s enemies that they can get their hands on, most notably Sevika. These victims enter a trance-like state: they turn their eyes skyward as arcane markings form on their faces.

Carrying battle standards, Noxian soldiers form a perimeter around Mel, Caitlyn, and Ambessa. Mel again tries to plead with her mother, but their conversation is interrupted by Caitlyn, who surprises Ambessa with a blow to the face. Mel and Caitlyn square off against Ambessa.

The robots and Warwick arrive at Vi’s perch. The pianist is taken by the robots. Jinx fires at Warwick, momentarily pinning him. Warwick leaps onto Jinx’s balloon and attacks her. Vi leaps into the open air and is caught by Ekko, who carries her up to the balloon. With a massive punch against Warwick, Vi alters the balloon’s trajectory. Warwick grabs Vi and starts to put her in the trance. As the balloon spirals out of control, Ekko intentionally crashes it into the face of the clock tower that holds the hexgates.

As Jayce works to remove the power cells from the hexgates, Viktor explains his ideology. By combining everyone into a single hive mind and removing their free will, he can enable perfection and put an end to suffering. Viktor simply waves his claw, and the power cells all reinsert themselves back into place. The hexgates hum to life.

Even together, Mel and Caitlyn are losing against Ambessa. Caitlyn lashes out with the broken tip of a spear, but Ambessa turns it back on her. As Caitlyn resists, Ambessa slowly forces the blade toward Caitlyn’s eye. Mel forms a magical barrier, but Ambessa pushes through it using Rictus’ runes. As a last stand, Caitlyn removes the knife from her gut and slashes at the runes, taking the spear in the eye. The runes clatter to the ground. Caitlyn shouts “Now!” and Mel’s Black Rose necklace materializes around her neck. Mel grips the charm. The Rose’s magic swallows Ambessa, leaving her encased in chains within the realm of the illusory sorceress.

The sorceress salutes Ambessa’s resilience and pulls a magical force from Ambessa’s ears. However, Mel forces her way into the realm. She attacks the sorceress, consuming the realm in a blinding flash of magic. The realm disappears, leaving Mel and Ambessa back on the battlefield. Ambessa is awestruck, dying in Mel’s arms. She utters her final words: “You are the wolf.” As Mel grieves, the soldiers salute, affirming their newfound loyalty to Ambessa’s successor, Mel.

Vi and Jinx emerge from the wreckage of the crash. They stand back to back, anticipating an attack.

Viktor summons the anomaly from the hexgate failsafe. He shrinks it and places it within the gnarled crook of his staff. As Viktor rises up the tower shaft, Jayce finds that a gravity field has suspended him in midair as well. He fires the Mercury Cannon downwards, launching himself upwards after Viktor.

Warwick attacks Vi. Jinx fires her gun, but the bullets have no effect on Warwick. As Viktor and Jayce rise through the tower, the gravity loss affects Jinx, Vi, and Warwick as well. They float into the air.

Jayce swings his hammer at Viktor, but Viktor deflects it with his laser and catches Jayce in the throat. They continue their ascent, passing between Vi and Warwick, until they shoot through the roof of the tower. Dozens of robots are already there, standing in a spiral formation. Viktor leaves Jayce on the roof as he continues upward. The anomaly rises into the sky, beyond the clouds, and initiates a massive arcane storm. An arcane pulse ripples outward, leaving behind signs of corruption. Countless glowing tendrils descend from the sky, connecting like wires into the heads of everyone in the vicinity, including the soldiers, Mel, and Caitlyn. Warwick grips Jinx and Vi, lifting them into the air as the tendrils reach them as well. Everyone connected to the tendrils enters the trance.

Ekko finally wakes up at the crash site. He sees the floating hands of a clock.

Jayce kneels with the Mercury Hammer in the same position as the corpse he saw atop the tower in the alternate universe. Viktor appears before him and places a hand on his head, putting Jayce into the trance. Jayce wakes up in Viktor’s arcane dreamscape, where countless other bodies float in the void. Viktor claims that the clash between emotion and reason is what dooms humanity, but Jayce finds beauty in imperfection, including Viktor’s.

Ekko flies his hoverboard past the robots, carrying a clock hand as a weapon. He tries to take a swing at Viktor, but a robot knocks him from his board. He rewinds time, now anticipating the strike and dodging it. This occurs several more times until the robots manage to pin Ekko to the ground. They raise him into the air, attempting to place him in the trance. Ekko rewinds time, but it’s too late; four seconds have already elapsed since the robots grabbed him. Desperately, Ekko sets the Z-Drive far beyond the four-second limit in order to escape. The Z-Drive becomes unstable, and Ekko hurls it at Viktor. It explodes, splitting open Viktor’s face.

In the dreamscape, Viktor asks Jayce why he still persists in spite of everything Viktor’s done. Jayce responds: “Because I promised you.” Jayce pulls Viktor into a hug, and in a flash of clarity, Viktor sees everything that Jayce saw in the alternate universe. The mage from Jayce’s childhood was an alternate future version of Viktor himself. This Viktor traveled across time and space to countless universes to save Jayce’s life and give him a runic crystal (with a different rune each time) during his childhood, setting in motion Jayce and Viktor’s meeting and the invention of hextech. Across all realities, only Jayce is able to show Viktor the truth: “There is no prize to perfection, only an end to pursuit.”

Viktor is horrified at this revelation. In the dreamscape, he reverts into his human form, suddenly full of doubt and regret. He tells Jayce to go, but Jayce insists that they’ll “finish this together.” Jayce takes the rune from his wrist and gives it to Viktor. The energy erupts in a series of vibrant magical flashes. In the end, Jayce and Viktor are sucked inside Jayce’s crystal—they disappear.

The robots collapse and the tendrils vanish, releasing everyone from the trance. Vi, Jinx, and Warwick fall from the air, slamming into the machinery below.

Jinx lands on one platform while Vi and Warwick land on another. Jinx sees that Vi’s platform is unstable and calls out to her, telling her to jump to another ledge before it falls. Instead, Vi approaches Warwick’s unconscious form. Jinx pleads with her, claiming that Vander can’t be saved. As Vi cradles Warwick’s face, he awakes and immediately attacks. Jinx dashes into Warwick, tackling him off the edge. With her gauntlets, Vi takes Jinx’s hand, holding her back from the long fall. Warwick holds onto Jinx. Jinx sacrifices herself, punching Vi’s gauntlet in a spot that causes the hextech gemstone to pop out. The gauntlet loses power, falling from Vi’s hand, and with it, Jinx and Warwick plummet towards the earth. As they fall, Jinx detonates a grenade in her hands, causing a massive explosion.

The Mercury Hammer crumbles into pieces as Vi's anguished cries echo above the hexgate.

Later, in order to memorialize the battle, the people of Piltover and Zaun hold ceremonies at the Bridge of Progress and throughout the two cities. They write the names of the fallen on slips of paper and burn them, letting them float away into the air. Privately, Ekko burns his own slip of paper.

As Shoola is the only remaining councilor, the Council is newly populated with members of Piltover’s notable houses, with one exception: Sevika.

Singed successfully crafts a new mechanical body for his daughter, Orianna.

A raven flies to the top of the hexgate tower and pokes at the crumbled ruins of the Mercury Hammer. It reveals that it has six red eyes, ostensibly an agent of Swain. It pecks at the hammer until it finds the hex crystal.

Mel and the remaining Noxian soldiers take Ambessa’s boats and leave Piltover’s shores.

Caitlyn examines the blueprints of the hexgates. Fondling a burnt piece of Jinx’s grenade, she seems to come to the conclusion that Jinx may have escaped through the tower’s ventilation system.

Caitlyn meets Vi in her lounge. Caitlyn asks Vi if she’s “still in this fight.” Vi responds, “I am the dirt under your nails, cupcake. Nothing’s gonna clean me out.”

An airship rides towards the horizon, perhaps containing Jinx.

Trivia[edit | edit source]

At the beginning of the episode, the 'X' on Jinx's's crop top is noticeably removed.
During the scene where Jinx sets everything ablaze, a single frame reveals a monster devouring a shattered Jinx reflected in broken glass, foreshadowing the series' climax.
Jinx’s ruined makeup, caused by her tears, includes an “IV” mark on her right cheek, which holds multiple symbolic meanings:
- It mirrors Vi's tattoo on the same cheek but reversed.
- The Roman numeral “IV” symbolizes the number 4. In Chinese and Japanese traditions, the number 4 is pronounced 死, meaning "death," reflecting Jinx's suicidal state.
- Ekko tries to stop Jinx from committing suicide and succeeds on his fourth attempt.
  - This references the duration of the final position of Ekko's acquired ability from episode 16 of the series, Chronobreak, from League of Legends.
  - Each time Ekko tries to save Jinx, her makeup deteriorates further.
After Ekko convinces Jinx, part 3 of the interactive mini-game "Jinx Fixes Everything" occurs. She heads to the Firelights' base and creates the Rhinogun.
During the battle, Ambessa demonstrates her in-game abilities from League of Legends, including Cunning Sweep, Sundering Slam, and Lacerate.
Among the Enforcer casualties, one victim is revealed to be a Zaunite with a family—a wife and daughter—who had previously enlisted to protect them, as depicted in an earlier episode of the series.
When Ambessa confronts Caitlyn after she was betrayed by Maddie, a chanting choruses can be heard, referencing Ambessa's music video "Blood Sweat & Tears."
- In the Original Score, the track "Raised by Wolves" is inspired by the tonality of that music video.
- In a different camera angle, Runeterra faction logos appear on the hexgate entrance above the door, including: Freljord, Noxus, Ionia, Bilgewater, Ixtal, and Shurima.
When Ambessa orders the public execution of Caitlyn, this references to the name of her ultimate ability, Public Execution.
- In a split-second black-and-white frame, Maddie is shown to be smiling mischievously as she prepares to execute Caitlyn.^[2]
- When the Maddie is killed by a ricochet from Mel's shield, it lands on Caitlyn's shoulder, drawing a parallel to episode 13 of the series, where Caitlyn does the same for Maddie.
When Jinx arrives to the battle alongside the Firelights, her hideout's engine is converted into a war balloon. It features several references:
- The rabbit ragdoll that Vi gave her in episode 2.
- The disk dresser from episode 4.
- Dolls of Mylo and Claggor from throughout the first season.
- Multiple drawings of crossed-out circles and bunny ears painted on the balloon, alluding to Isha.
- Ekko's mark, symbolizing the Firelights.
- The predominant colors on the balloon are the colors that occur in Jinx's hideout and at the site of the Jinx and Vi battle in episode 3. There are also two types of green, a richer green on the Firelights markings and Jinx's own green, which is not saturated, which is found in her hideout and in the battle with Vi.
Jinx and Ekko’s new outfits are featured in the Arcane Fractured Jinx and Arcane Last Stand Ekko skins:
- Jinx's hood bears a resemblance to the first version of Baron Nashor or her rocket launcher Fishbones. Jinx’s violet-dyed bangs mirror her sister's hair color.
  - The items in the balloon, as well as the outfits, represent the families that support Jinx in moving forward, as explained in the conclusion of the "Jinx Fixes Everything" mini-game.
  - All the marks on Jinx are in her own colors, which were previously seen in her and Isha's hideout and during the fight with Vi. The Firelights symbols has a richer green color, which is clearly visible when Jinx stands at the helm of the balloon.
- Ekko continues to carry the pipe from his Firelight skin before transitioning to his signature XII bat, which he found in the Piltover clock tower beneath the hex gates, a nod to his original skin.
  - This is a parallel to episode 5, where Vi does the same with Caitlyn, when they were wearing their respective skins.
- Ekko's costume is similar to the costumes of Jinx followers whom she released from prison. The costume has the X's that Jinx followers identify themselves with, as well as the hourglass marks.
When Vi rescues Jinx from Warwick, she uses her Vault Breaker ability from League of Legends.
Ambessa wears boots reminiscent of the League of Legends item Armored Advance, with a golden part resembling a spine, shaped like a wolf.
When Vi and Jinx stand back-to-back, it mirrors the moment from episode 6 of the series, when they first faced off against the Firelights.
In the battle against Warwick, Jinx uses her weapon to boost herself, similar to her recall animation from her Arcane Fractured skin.
The scene where Jayce arrives atop the Hexgate, surrounded by the remaining ruins of the clock tower, was foreshadowed in episode 16 of the series.
- Viktor launches his core into the sky, referencing his ultimate ability Arcane Storm.
When Ekko throws his Z-Drive at Viktor's face, partly restoring him to normal, Jayce shares the future vision he saw with Viktor. This confirms that the wizard that saved him in episode 2 was Viktor himself.
When Jayce and Viktor embrace with the rune, the same butterfly referenced in episode 12 appears in a frame.
When Vi holds Jinx's hand to prevent her and Warwick from falling, it mirrors the moment in episode 1, when she saved her from falling again.
- When Vi holds Warwick's apparently dead body, it is a parallel to episode 3, where Violet held Vander's body.
- Jinx's act of redemption is foreshadowed when she heard Silco's words in her head in the previous episode.
- When Jinx falls with Warwick, her eyes briefly turn blue.
During the mourning period, Ekko sits in the same place where he met his alternate version of Powder in episode 16.
- He also writes a letter, which he burns, with the calligraphy "-der" or "-ger" hidden within it. It is unclear if the letter is addressed to Heimerdinger, Powder, or Vander.
Singed manages to augment his daughter, curing her of her ailment, revealing that she is Orianna, as implied in episode 14.
The crow that appears throughout season 1 is revealed to be Beatrice, the crow used by the demon of secrecy Raum. This crow is under the power of the Noxian Grand General Jericho Swain.
- This is potentially a teaser for the next Arcane spin-off series.
It is speculated that Jinx survived explosion, based on the following:
- When Warwick holds on to Jinx's glove, in a split second, it appears as though she uses her shimmer-enhanced reflexes, as there was a burst of light at the moment of the explosion.
  - It is possible that Warwick survived the explosion, possibly due to his enhanced physiology from Singed's experiments.
- When Caitlyn checks the files at the Kiramman mansion, she reveals that the hexgate has a ventilation system. This suggests that Jinx might still be alive, as Caitlyn didn’t find her body, only a monkey grenade that Jinx had.
- The blimp shown at the end of the series is a reference to episode 1 when Powder expressed a desire to fly when she grew up.
  - At the same time, Vi hums the lullaby that Powder did at the beginning of episode 1. It echoes Vi's original plan in episode 9 to take Jinx away from the city.
- In one frame, the words "The End" are handwritten in the same style as Jinx.
- In the book The Art and Making of Arcane, now released in public, there are cryptic messages that Jinx is still alive, such as "I am still here..." and "I'll be right back...", respectively.^[3]^[4]

Production[edit | edit source]

The intimate scene between Caitlyn and Vi embracing affectionately was censored in Arabia, China and/or Russia.
In an interview with Christian Linke, he revealed there was a scrapped scene that where Jinx and Ekko were preparing for battle by creating their new outfits.^[5]^[6]

'Come Play' Lyrics

Come Play

English + Hangul + Spanish (Vulgar)

English + Hangul (Romanization) + Spanish (Formal)

English

You’re not alone
Look at my shadow, I’m behind you like a ghost
Mission “Die a legend” is a go
The way I flow, taking all the shots
Landing free throws, beast mode
Double snake eyes, Turn ‘em all to stone

And you’re a student of war
내가 되갚을 때면
I’ll leave you begging for more
뼛속 깊이 느껴 넌
그 문을 여는 순간
더이상 Game은 없어
별다른 해답은 None
처음 맛보는 광경

Try me I dare you to try me
Took me long but I’m here
Coming down like lightning
Taking back what’s mine
It was a matter of time

If you wanna come play
You gotta start with me
And the monsters in my head
In my head
Got blood on my hands
And you’re my revenge
You pushed me to the edge
The edge
Do you wanna come play?

Te la viviste
Si en mi no creías
Llegamo' con el combo ready
Pa' hacerles una avería (ía)
Cuidao que tengo mecha corta
Y puede que te explote la encía
Prendo fuego y te quemo toa la mercancía
Mejor pedir perdon que pedir permiso
Me la improviso
Y a toa esta gente le doy contra el piso
Si quieren medir fuerza
Les tengo un aviso:
Mas mala suerte con la nena
Q dispara y preciso

Try me I dare you to try me
Took me long but I'm here
Coming down like lightning
Taking back whats mine
It was a matter of time

If you wanna come play
You gotta start with me
And the monsters in my head
In my head
Got blood on my hands
And you’re my revenge
You pushed me to the edge
The edge
Do you wanna come play?
Do you wanna come play?

If you wanna come play
You gotta start with me
And the monsters in my head
In my head
Got blood on my hands
And you’re my revenge
You pushed me to the edge
The edge
Do you wanna come play?

'Wasteland' Lyrics

Wasteland
I’ve held on for as long as I can
For the ones that I had to defend
I’ve been strong every day of my life
If she wants, death could take me this time

This world is a wasteland where nothing can grow
I used to have strength but I ran out of hope
I know it’s my fault that I'm here all alone
This world is a wasteland
Please let me go, go, go, go, go, go, go

If I could just lay my head down and rest
If there was nothing to fight or protect
Maybe then I could finally be free
Maybe death is like falling asleep

This world is a wasteland where nothing can grow
I used to have strength but I ran out of hope
I know it’s my fault that I'm here all alone
This world is a wasteland

I’m not ready to face it
Don’t go saying goodbye
There’s a beauty in changes
And I wanna try

This world is a wasteland where nothing can grow
If it weren’t for you I’d be here all alone
I know in my heart this is where we belong
This world is a wasteland
Don’t let me go, go, go, go, go, go, go
Don't let me go
