Contains spoilers and speculations for 'The Umbrella Academy'

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: The monumental odyssey of superhero siblings from Netflix's action-adventure drama 'The Umbrella Academy' has finally reached its destination, with a bittersweet finale.

The show primarily highlights the challenges of a dysfunctional family of seven adopted superheroes, each struggling with their own inner conflicts while attempting to evade the apocalypse in each season.

The show's most recent season eventually explained why the World is always on the brink of ending, leaving siblings to make a difficult decision.

Furthermore, near the episode's conclusion, there is also a post-credit sequence implying a lovely future for our cherished superheroes.

What happens to Hargreeves siblings in the post-credit scene of 'The Umbrella Academy' Season 4?

As previously stated, the siblings decide to sacrifice themselves in order to ensure that only one original timeline exists, and after some hesitation, they do so, erasing the infinite timelines created by their births in 1989 and consolidating everything into a single main timeline.

Dead characters like The Handler (Kate Walsh) and Hazel (Cameron Britton) are shown as leading regular lives in this other world, with Lila's (Ritu Arya) family and Allison Hargreeves's (Emmy Raver-Lampman) daughter Claire living a blissful life.

Despite the fact that Lila and the Hargreeves siblings were meant to vanish from the world, eight shimmering marigolds are seen erupting in the park during the post-credits sequence, signifying their ongoing existence.

Now, it's a bittersweet ending as we say goodbye to our beloved superheroes, but the post-credits scene does justice to their conclusion.

The appearance of the eight marigolds suggests that the eight slain superheroes and the marigold flowers, named after the particles that gave them their abilities, suggest to a link.

The sprouting of these flowers is like a message to the marigold particles, suggesting that their abilities or influence survive in some way, perhaps enabling their return or the continuance of their legacy.

While Season 4 is the show's last season, this tidbit raises the question of what happens next for the heroes. This revelation leaves the door open for possible future developments, despite the fact that Season 4 is designated as the finale.
