Woman of the Dead Season 2 Ending Explained

The series starts with a 2-year-old body being exhumed. Reza and Blum are left shocked and helpless as they learn the news, realising that the casket contains the remains of one of Blum’s victims. They rush to the graveyard at night to get the dismembered remains out but aren’t able to get it all before someone spots them. Of course, the police are called when the body parts are eventually found and Birgit Wallner and Wilhelm Danzberger are brought to the scene again to investigate.

Wallner is convinced that Blum is behind all the missing men in the town but Wilhelm refuses to ruffle feathers without proof and disrupt the town’s peace. As Wallner continues to follow clues, Nela is kidnapped by a mysterious man leaving Reza worried. In the meantime, Wallner brings Blum to the station to question her and try to get her to confess to her crimes. Just as she is about to open up, a lawyer walks in mentioning that he represents her. After he gets Blum alone, he shows her a video of a kidnapped Nela and tells her to hand over a two-year-old video in exchange for her freedom.

Blum is confused by this threat and tells him that she doesn’t have any video. However, with her daughter’s life on the line, she decides to get out of the station and go out to get clues. She tries to get the lawyer to divulge any information which he refuses to do. Desperate, she pays him a visit later on and realises from his laptop that he is a part of the snuff film gang thanks to the disturbing video in his possession. Elsewhere, Badal Sarkissian arrives at the town and visits Johanna Schönborn. With Edwin dead, he now has a chance to redistribute the shares of her company and get a hold of it.

She desperately tries to stop that from happening and asks her grandson Alex to be the next in line. In the midst of this, Blum appears in front of Johanna, convinced that she knows more than she is letting on. She implores her to give any information about Nela that she has and Johanna asks her to point towards her son’s remaining corpse to bury him. Blum eventually figures out the location where the trafficked people are kept but doesn’t find Nela inside. Frustrated, she lets the others out and continues on her quest to find her daughter, absolutely certain that it has something to do with the trafficking ring.

As the bodies slowly start to pile up, we see just how much of a hold the different politicians and influential people of the town have on the police department. While Johanna keeps Wilhelm under her thumb, Sarkissian has a stronghold on Daniel Lambert who has become close to Wallner to keep an eye on her. Anyway, Reza takes a drastic step at this point, confessing to Blum’s crimes in order to give her some time and find Nela. Wallner isn’t convinced and grills Reza on the details of the crime. Blum kidnaps Tamar and threatens Sarkissian to give her Nela back, while Wallner learns about the trafficking ring and the videos after searching Sarkissian’s house. Unfortunately, Hackspiel ends up accidentally killing Tamar, leaving Blum without a bargaining chip.

With no other options, she takes a decoy to get Nela back but the plans fails miserably. With no other options, Blum takes Wallner’s help, promising to tell her everything if she helps to find her daughter. Wallner, having just killed Daniel, agrees to do so and together, they pay Sarkissian a visit who was about to make a run for it. Wallner tells Blum about one of Sarkissian’s properties and, convinced that Nela is there somewhere, they pay it a visit. After much searching through the empty halls, Blum finds her daughter in the basement. She kills Damian first and then Sarkissian, but not before he stabs her. Either way, mother-daughter ends up being safe in the end.

Meanwhile, Wallner is ambushed by Brynner and both of them shoot and kill each other. Unfortunately for the other two women, Sarkissian isn’t dead and in a last bit of action, Blum faces off against him and is almost killed until Nela rushes in to save her. Blum eventually finishes off the job. As mother and daughter reunite for good this time, the police find the bodies of the different women on Lange’s property and he swiftly ends his life instead of facing consequences. Johanna takes out a laptop from the safe and shows the video that Lange had received, and she mentions that Edwin had done one thing right in his life. As Blum’s family bids Hackspiel goodbye while Johanna shows interest in taking up Lange’s place.
