Monarch Episode 6 Ending: Who is at Nicky’s Door?
Nicky wins the award and receives a massive boost in her career. However, Gigi is disappointed by the loss, and her animosity toward her sister grows. In the episode’s final moments, Kayala tries to console and comfort Gigi. She encourages Gigi to forgive Nicky and move past their disagreement. However, Gigi is still enraged about Nicky stealing her song and decides to confront her sister. Meanwhile, Nicky is celebrating her win at home when someone knocks on her doorstep. The next time we see Nicky, she is covered in blood and had a physical altercation with someone.
Earlier in the episode, Ana returns home after the award ceremony. However, her mother catches her lies and reprimands Ana from seeing Ace. Catt insists that Ana must not make her relationship with the Romans personal. Therefore, she heads out to speak with Nicky. Catt does not want Ace near her daughter, and her conversation with Nicky is unlikely to be pleasant. However, there is little reason for their interaction to turn violent. Nicky is shocked to see the person on her door, and their visit seems unexpected. Therefore, it is likely that the person is Clive. The couple’s marriage is near its breaking point. Hence, it is likely that the two will get into a physical altercation.
Ultimately, it is likely that Gigi, Catt, and Clive all showed up at Nicky’s doorstep at different points in the night. However, one of the arguments went too far, and Nicky inadvertently ended up hurting one of the trio. After we see Nicky covered in blood, she immediately calls Albie for help. Albie takes a shotgun before heading to the crime scene. The episode ends with Nicky taking Albie’s help in dealing with the situation, leading to the murder we see in the flash-forwards of the first episode. Hence, the episode’s ending narrows down the possibility of the dead person being Gigi, Catt, or Clive.
