The Flight Attendant season 2, episode 7 recap
After Shane picks Cassie, he informs her that he is on the fence about their friendship. He, however, accepts her apology and tells her the evidence that he has found. Everyone who died has a link to Will. And then Cassie suspects whether Benjamin purposely made her his informant. Then when they track down the boat, Shane finds a pool of blood. And inside the boat are three bodies, including the glass eye man, Jim Jones. Are they dead because of Cassie? She sure thinks so. Despite Shane’s protest, Cassie removes what she believes to be her red glove from the murder scene.
Megan is finally caught as she watches Eli. He threatens Eli, so she knocks her out and locks him in the car boot. Good for Megan! At the docks, Jenny spots Cassie. Apparently, Jenny is there for reasons relating to her blog, which creeps Cassie out, and she asks Jenny to go away. But Jenny grows some backbone.
Next, Cassie tells Annie and Max that Shane is a CIA agent, much to his annoyance. And Shane believes that the Blonde Double’s next target will be Cassie herself. Megan now believes that Shane is the enemy and wants to organize a deal with him. However, before Megan can make arrangements, she is pulled over for illegal parking. Megan gets asked to step out of the vehicle, but she manages to talk her way out of anything further. Once again, good for Megan!
Cassie finds and accidentally touches a bloody knife in her house. Despite Shane telling them to stay at home, Annie and Max follow Cassie and Shane to the pier. Cassie asks Shane if he would protect Megan, but he won’t. Instead, he would lock her up. And as Cassie receives some weird messages from Davy, she spots the Blonde Double. Who is there? The killer duo, Gabrielle and Esteban. Dot calls Cassie and thanks her for the evidence she has gathered so far. Dot overhears background noise from the pier and warns Cassie to stay away from Benjamin if she sees him.
The ending
The killer duo spots Max and Annie, and soon there’s a cat and mouse chase. As they hide, Annie comes up with an idea. As Cassie hides from Benjamin, on a fairway ride nonetheless, Shane and Benjamin threaten each other. The killer duo corner Max, but Annie tasers the duo, with Annie and Max getting engaged for real this time. Then comes the big reveal, Grace is Blonde Double.
Grace reveals that she doesn’t want to be doing any of this, and also adds that she just stabbed Benjamin. But Grace freaks out, and despite being a trained killer, she doesn’t like “doing this”. Cassie tries to tell Grace there is a way out and to let her know who is doing this. But instead, Grace shoots herself in the head.
