Thursday’s Widows Ending Explained: Who Killed Tano, Gustavo and Martin?
The people of Los Altos de las Cascadas are shaken due to the deaths of 3 men – Tano, Gustavo and Martin. The three are found dead in Tano’s swimming pool on December 26 at the end of the first episode. The first episode shows that the people in this community are enjoying rich, comfortable and peaceful lives with their families and friends. But the truth is something else, which we discover as the series progresses.
Tano gets laid off from his job, and even Martin struggles to start his life by himself. He had a good life, thanks to his grandfather’s political party and the privileges that came with it. But Martin fails to make it big on his own and doesn’t give the best life to his family as he had wanted. Gustavo is a physically abusive husband. His wife Carla leaves him when he hits her badly, hurting her eyes.
The last episode of Thursday’s Widows reveals that Tano killed Martin and Gustavo and was the last one to die. Tano attempted to kill himself several times in the show. But on this particular Thursday, he tells Gustavo, Martin, and Ronie that they all (including him) have failed to provide for their family. He convinces them that their life insurance policies will help their wives and children lead better lives.

As shown in the first episode, Ronie is unhappy with Tano’s plan and storms out. So it’s just these three men. The video recorded by Ramona and Juandi reveals that Tano drowns and kills Martin and Gustavo. Immediately after they’re dead, his snow machine falls into the pool, thus electrocuting him. That’s how the three men die.
The video is circulated to the families during their funerals. But Alfredo advises them not to let this truth out and to keep the narrative as an accidental death only. It will help the families claim the insurance.
What happens to Mavi and Ronie?
Mavi confesses to Ronie that she slept with the head of security, Wagner. Ronie is shattered to hear this and even goes to confront Wagner. However, he doesn’t say anything. So the couple is still together.
Ultimately, the community celebrates the New Year with a hint of despair. Nothing is the same anymore. But everyone pretends that things are all right.
The show is now streaming on Netflix.

Spectacular show!
Very well directed; the script is good, performing are excellent, mostly Tano (which surprised me because he is argentine). Excellent work done by Omar Chaparro (Tano).
It’s only 6 episodes, but a must see to enjoy the intrigue and finale.
