Was Charlie rescued?
Allie gets his hand on a grenade from one of Guillermo’s men. He waits outside the conference room for an opening to barge in and save Charlie.

In the last few minutes of the episode, we see Charlie on a rescue boat with a few people. It is then confirmed that those people are former residents of Casa Roja when Isela also appears. They started a new life and found a new home for themselves and the ones in need on the Mosquito Coast.
Dina suddenly appears and approaches both Charlie and Margot. She was also carrying a substance in her hand.
