Episode 9 kicks off with Victor Sams' associates seizing control of the ship and initiating a deadly game. Despite releasing a select few, including Rufus Cotesworth (Mandy Patinkin) whom Sams deems innocent, to escape via boat, the remaining passengers face the perilous challenge ahead.

As the clock ticks down on a bomb threat, passengers face a dire situation with only a slim chance of survival, as a helicopter awaits with just nine available seats. The competition for these seats intensifies as people bid for their lives, with only the highest bidders securing a spot on the life-saving flight.

Struggling against the odds, Eleanor Chun (Karoline), Father Toby Briggs (Danny Johnson), and Tripp Collier (Jack Cutmore-Scott) lacking substantial funds, desperately attempt to secure a seat.

Simultaneously, Imogene Scott, Sunil Bhandari (Rahul Kohli), Jules (Hugo Diego Garcia), Teddy Goh (Angela Zhou), and Leila Collier (Pardis Saremi) join forces, brainstorming to uncover the true identity of Victor Sams.

Imogene manages to steal Keith Trubitsky's (Michael Gladis) diary from Victor Sams' men and begins the process of deciphering his cryptic notes. This pursuit leads her to the TikTok videos recorded by Father Toby's son, Derek (Sincere Wilbert), and the revelations are nothing short of shocking.

In the footage, Imogene observes Agent Hilde Eriksen's (Linda Emond) arrival on the ship, before the first murder on the ship. Imogene deduces that Ericksen is Victor Sams and she got Keith murdered because he noticed her.

Connecting the dots, she realizes that Eriksen targeted Alexandra Hochenberg (Tamberla Perry), Llewellyn Mathers (Jere Burns), and Katherine Collier (Jayne Atkinson) due to deeply personal reasons. Eriksen acknowledges that Imogene has figured it all out correctly and Imogene shockingly calls her, 'Mom'.

It is now clear that Imogene's mother, Kira Scott is alive, forged her identity, and planned an act of revenge against the Collier family and their associates.

'Death and Other Details' is now streaming on Hulu.
