The Umbrella Academy Season 2: What Does The Ending Really Mean?

5. Harlan Still Has Powers

Vanya's rescue of Harlan created a bond between the pair deeper than she thought possible and it seemed like she had literally passed her abilities onto him.

That became a problem when he became scared of his own abilities and created a weather-altering storm and hid away from the world in a giant ball of energy that only Vanya herself could get inside.

It seemed like she had found a way to remove the powers from him, but the closing moments of the finale suggest otherwise as he was able to make his bird figure levitate with his mind.

Are Harlan and Sissy set to return next season for Vanya's guidance? It sure seems like there's more to this story and since Vanya and Sissy deserve to be happy together, this might be the catalyst that brings them back into each other's lives.
