Velma Ending Explained

Although episode nine ended with the murderer being revealed as Diya Dinkley, the gang was determined that the real murderer is someone else completely. By this time, we also see Diya completely recovering and her memories coming back and she faces the reality. Towards the end of the tenth episode, it was finally revealed who was behind it all.

When Velma arrives at Fred’s residence towards the end of the tenth episode, she finds both Fred and Daphne tied together in Perdue’s lab. By this time, our titular character has figured out that Victoria Jones, Fred’s mother is the killer through a pocket watch used to hypnotize Diya into confessing that she is the killer. The pocket watch happened to have the logo of the Jones’ company. Thus, when arriving to rescue Daphne and Fred, Velma is stopped by Victoria.

With a final fight taking place, we see Norville’s accidental arrival at the scene aiding Velma’s defence and killing Victoria inevitably. It is, of course, revealed that Victoria’s intention was to recreate Dr. Perdue’s work. She wanted to switch her son, Fred’s brain to a more competent one, so that he can become the expected proper heir to their famous family and the company it runs.

The episode ends with the case being solved but, the gang not sticking together at the end and drifting apart. However, there appears to be a mid-credits scene where it is revealed that a new killer is on the loose and has murdered Sheriff Cogburn.
