Sense8 Finale: 8 Ups & 2 Downs From 'Amor Vincit Omnia'

Ups...

8. Everyone Is Together (At Last)

Sense8 Finale
Netflix

While they all reside in different locations around the world, we've seen the sensates intact on numerous occasions. Whether they're helping Nomi escape the authorities, or aiding Lito with his emotional problems, the supernaturally-gifted characters appear whenever their friends might need them. But, despite this, they've never physically been in the same room together.

It's only taken them two seasons and a total of 24 episodes, but it finally happened in Amor Vincit Omnia. At the start of the finale, we find seven of the telepathically connected characters hiding out in Rajan's apartment in Paris, while they work out a plan to rescue Wolfgang. It's a real treat seeing them all in the same room and sorting things like breakfast. They've become a proper family since the last time we saw them all.

In addition to the cluster being together for the first time, we also get to see the likes of Rajan interact with the sensates, and Wolfgang's friend Felix shows up in Paris too. We get to see character interactions that we never knew we needed, like Wolfgang and Rajan, and Daniela and Amanita. The scriptwriters cleverly orchestrated a storyline that would allow all of the show's central characters - sensates or not - to appear on screen together for the first, and ultimately only, time.
