Contains spoilers and speculations for 'Dark Matter'

CHICAGO, ILLINOIS: 'Dark Matter', streaming on Apple TV+, takes the thrill up a notch with every episode. The sci-fi series had us intrigued in the first episode itself when Jason Dessen (Joel Edgerton) was abducted by his alternate self.

With six episodes already out, our excitement is at its peak, speculating how the series would end. Jason 1's fate hangs in air as he is struggling to find his way back home.

Why Jason 1's return seems impossible after 'Dark Matter' Episode 6?

Jason and Amanda Lucas (Alice Braga) escaped from Reality 2 in 'Dark Matter' Episode 3. Since then, they have been lurking in liminal space, opening doors to the realities that aren't Jason 1's.

They made progress when they discovered that the box is a manifestation of minds and the realities would depend on their deep subconscious thoughts.

After initial disastrous attempts by landing in post-apocalypse worlds, Jason 1 was slowly getting closer to his desired reality. By thinking about the smallest of details like the color of his house door, the nearby pub, and the color of Daniela's hair, he landed in realities that almost seemed to be his.

However, Jason 2 added to Jason 1's misery by sealing up the box in Reality 1. Behind this action was his sinister aim to never let Jason 1 return to his reality.

With the doors of Jason 1's reality permanently closed, his return is impossible until a big twist is introduced.

Will Jason 1 return to his reality in 'Dark Matter' ending?

Despite the odds, Jason 1 is most likely to return to his original reality by the finale of 'Dark Matter'. It would be so disappointing if he doesn't, especially since we have only seen him traveling between realities in Episodes 4, 5, and 6 and most likely he will continue to switch realities in the upcoming ones too.

At this point, it remains a mystery how he will make it back to his reality. He only needed to manifest his reality and align his subconscious thoughts in order to be successful. Jason 1 was too close to his reality until Jason 2 permanently sealed the box.

Now viewers are left wondering if Jason 1 could build his own box to return to his world. Well, it could have been a possibility if he had stayed in Reality 2 and understood how the box is made.

Reality 2 was the only place where he could fit in. In all the other realities, other versions of Jason exist and he simply can't replace them for his own mission.

Now when he isn't a part of any reality, chances of him building a new box look bleak. Moreover, creating a box isn't one man's job and he would require huge money.

It would also take years for him to recreate the similar box and Jason 1 doesn't seem to be a man of patience. He wants to return to Daniela (Jennifer Connelly) and Charlie (Oakes Fegley) as early as possible.

At this point, we can speculate that either Jason 2 will reopen the box after being frustrated by Reality 1, thus opening a chance for Jason 1 to return. Another possibility is that Daniela will find out Jason 2's secret and will probably open the box for Jason 1.

We can also hope Jason to put his knowledge as a physicist to use, something which he hasn't tried in his adventures yet.

Ahead of 'Dark Matter' Episode 7, we can also hope that Jason 1 and Amanda land in a reality where Jason 2 left Ryan Holder. If that happens, the two friends would put together their brilliant minds to crack a way back home, especially since Jason 1 has the pills and Ryan knows how the box works (courtesy of Jason 2).
