Major Crimes season 6 episode 13 (series finale): The final showdown

Major Crimes January 3, 2018

Major Crimes season 6 episode 13 is coming your way on TNT next week, and it’s obviously more than just your typical episode — this marks the end of the series as a whole. The show is coming to a close with a final showdown with the Division on one side and notorious criminal Phillip Stroh on the other. We’ve been building to this for years, and this episode will beg the question: Can Stroh be caught? Is there a way for most of these characters to find happiness in the end? We hope so, but after what happened to Sharon we’ve got a hard time imagining that James Duff is going to just give all of his characters a happy ending for the heck of it.

CarterMatt does have for you the Major Crimes season 6 episode 13 synopsis below, and it gives you a little more insight as to who is in danger going into the episode:

In the series finale, Lt. Tao, (Michael Paul Chan) is stuck in a room with a potential bomb. Provenza (G.W. Bailey) finally identifies the real Ms. Bechtal, and Major Crimes comes face-to-face for the very last time with Phillip Stroh (Billy Burke).

Obviously, there are many different priorities going on here — you have to figure out a way in which to save Tao, and then also figure out at the same time how to stop Stroh. After that, you then have to spend a moment letting everyone breathe easy before the finale comes to a close. The curtain drops, and unfortunately after that you’re left to wonder for quite some time as to what would happen next. We know that for us, we’ll just hope for the best for all of the surviving characters — these people deserve happiness. (Then again, so did Sharon … not that we want to dwell on that for any longer than we already have.)

Stay tuned — we imagine that there will be more news before long on the Major Crimes series finale.

My guess is Provenza will shoot and kill Stroh

I’m not optimistic at all which is sad because I loved this ensemble cast and the show. I didn’t watch for Shandy. I didn’t hate Gusty or Rusty. After watching the penultimate episode I’m so disheartened by the direction the show has taken that I won’t be watching next week. I simply do not care how this story ends. Major Crimes wasn’t about Stroh. We haven’t been waiting since The Closer for Stroh to see justice…it hasn’t been a slow burn. I certainly am not invested in this plot, and the characters I was invested in have either been killed and quickly forgotten about, or have been diluted. I mean, the squad are making jokes about someone whose wife just died. The show has become tasteless and I am so very disappointed because it could have, and should have, been better than this. I’m not invested in what is being presented. I’m just a viewer, it’s not my prerogative to decide how the show should develop. Fans often think they can do a better job that the pros and often that is simply not the case. However, we were told that season 6 was written for the fans and I’m not seeing it. Perhaps I’m being blind and stupid but I cannot comprehend how what we are consuming is anything but a slap in the face to us. As I have indicated, I am very sad about how things have turned out and I now genuinely wish that Major Crimes hadn’t been renewed for a 6th season. On balance, ending with Raydor’s promotion would have been a better and more satisfying conclusion for the fans than this.

  I agree with you, Emma. In retrospect, finishing the show after season 5 might have been preferable. For me, the “White Lies” arc, mid-season 5, was the last really good thing they did. – It’s a pity.
