After a high-octane drama in 'Dark Matter' Episode 5, fans can't wait to see what happens next in Jason Dessen's twisted life.

In 'Dark Matter' Episode 5, Jason Dessen and Amanda Lucas (Alice Braga) continue their adventures in liminal space to locate Jason's original reality. With each attempt, they unravel the functioning of the box.

They realize that they need to align their fears, desires, thoughts, and subconscious mind, all at once, in order to land in the right reality. As they try to control their minds, they inch closer to their desired reality.

From opening the door to the post-apocalypse world to landing in a habitable reality where Daniela is still alive, Jason and Amanda have made real progress. However, they still haven't found Jason's original reality and they decide to continue their journey.

Meanwhile, Jason 2 discovers that Jason has escaped Reality 2 and is trying to find his way back home. The episode ends with him deciding to seal the box forever to stop Jason from opening the door to this reality.

What to expect in 'Dark Matter' Episode 6?

The way Episode 5 ended on a thrilling note, fans can only expect things to get intense in the next episode.

Distances have already crept into Daniela Dessen (Jennifer Connelly) and Jason's life. She confronted him about his recent behavior and we can assume that she is not convinced with his answers. With growing suspicion, she is likely to spy on her husband and may find shocking facts about him.

Meanwhile, Jason and Amanda will continue their mission of finding the right reality. While stuck in superposition, they will most probably get closer to each other.

The official synopsis for 'Dark Matter' Episode 6 reads, "Daniela suspects something's not right with her husband. Jason and Amanda grow closer."

'Dark Matter' is available to stream on Apple TV+
