So, how does 'Queen of the South' end?

The final ever episode of Queen of the South plunges viewers into the aftermath of Teresa's (Alice Braga) dying. As unswerving audience will recall, Teresa was gunned down in Season 5, Episode 9, in a while after giving Russian mobster Kostya (Pasha D. Lychnikoff) a style of his own medication — or, in this case, a trickle of the similar poison he used to homicide Oksana (Vera Cherny).

The Season 5 finale charts the occasions going down after James (Peter Gadiot) shoots Teresa at her Belize mansion at the request of Devon Finch (Jamie Hector). The first few scenes of the episode at once deal with the grievous outcomes of the atrocity, appearing Samara (Eve Harlow) give a witness statement to the police and Pote (Hemky Madera) as he watches the cremation prior to heading out to spread Teresa's ashes.

Elsewhere, James goes out on a limb to supply enough documentation to turn out to Devon that Teresa is dead. Boaz (Joseph T. Campos) sets up store within Teresa's New Orleans house. What's extra, he begins to make "provisions" for James, Pote, and Kelly Anne (Molly Burnett).

Devon's men set out on a hunt for James and Pote in Culiacán, Mexico, while Boaz's subordinates search for Kelly Anne. Too cautious of getting spotted whilst out and about, Pote nicks a car — which quickly seems to be the motive of his downfall.

He results in jail after a poorly-timed come across with the police. Needless so as to add, he doesn't make it in time for his meeting with Kelly Anne. Chicho (Alejandro Barrios) visits Pote in jail. As phase of the transient cranium session, Pote relays his latest news, telling Chicho that he may just keep in prison for a number of years.

The second part of the 'Queen of the South' finale is a nice deal less harsh on lovers.

Queen of the South options a time leap, capturing where the primary characters end up 3 years after the frenzy surrounding Teresa's shooting. After leaving jail, Pote makes it his mission to get revenge on the spineless Boaz.

The fast-escalating face-off features a bloody knife battle. Although the odds are stacked up in opposition to him, Pote finally ends up successful. As a "parting gift," he provides Chicho Siete Gotas. Dumas gets Teresa’s waterfront property.

Pote after all reunites with Kelly Anne, his daughter, Lena (Mileiah Vega), and the old staff. It's here that we be informed that Teresa is not only no longer lifeless — but that she has effectively pulled off some other genius plan.

Pote tells her that Dumas and Chicho suspect nothing. Teresa delivers a monologue, explaining that she selected to "kill herself" to steer clear of demise or jail.

(*5*) she says.
