The Twist

Near the end of the game, Agent 47 succumbs to a neurotoxin administered by his former handler Diana, seemingly in revenge for 47 killing her parents.

As it turns out, though, the poison is non-fatal and all part of Diana's wider plan, to put 47 on a train to take down Arthur Edwards, the one person standing in the way of her ambitions.

The Early Reveal

You can actually fleetingly see the moment that Diana poisons 47 about an hour before the effects manifest. At the start of the late-game mission The Farewell, Diana briefly touches 47's hand, and for a few fractions of a second the screen tints red and grey.

This only happens in the game when 47 has received damage, so it subtly tees up the fact that Diana just harmed him in some fashion. It's incredibly easily missed if you're not paying total attention or do so much as blink, though.
