However, after picturing Emma (Samsara Yett) in the same room as the serial killer who murdered her own daughter, Anna comes to and finds the strength to follow after Buell.<\/p>\n<p>When Anna makes it inside the house, she finds Buell dying on the floor with his throat slit. \u201cYou got some of their mail by mistake, Miss Anna. I was just\u2026\u201d Buell says whilst clutching blood-stained letters in his hand. With Anna now convinced that Neil is the killer, she runs to find Emma to find Neil slumped on the sofa with his slit throat also.<\/p>\n<p>She turns around to see Emma holding a knife with blood all over her pyjamas. \u201cPeople always underestimate children \u2013 underestimate what they\u2019re capable of,\u201d she says sinisterly.<\/p>\n<div class=\"&quot;image-handler__container\"

attendant, who we found out in earlier episodes was actually a conwoman, declined to buy any of her girl scout chocolate bars. Emma then framed Anna for the murder by taking one of her palette knives while Anna\u00a0was fetching her cheque book to pay for the chocolate bars. Neil didn\u2019t hear Lisa\u2019s murder as he\u2019d been upstairs practicing his ventriloquist act with the water running so no one could hear him rehearsing \u2013 with Emma revealing that she killed her own father because his act \u201csucked\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>She then explains that she was responsible for her mother\u2019s death \u2013 not her father. When her pregnant mother \u2013 who couldn\u2019t swim \u2013 was at the end of the dock, she pushed her in as punishment for wanting another baby. With plans to frame Anna for her recent crimes and kill Bell\u2019s character in \u201cself defence\u201d, Emma begins attacking and the two get into a brawl.<\/p>\n<p>Emma manages to grab a gun and shoots Anna in the torso before hitting her over the head with a casserole dish. She then calls the police and claims Anna attacked her in self defence, while grabbing a knife to finish off the job and explaining that she could have avoided her fate if she\u2019d heeded her warning (revealing that she was the one who wrote \u201cSTOP OR U R NEXT\u201d in the dust on her car).\u00a0Just as she\u2019s about to stab Anna in the chest, Anna plunges a piece of the broken casserole dish into her chest and kills her, just as Anna\u2019s ex-husband Douglas (Michael Ealy) comes to Anna\u2019s aid.<\/p>\n<div class=\"&quot;image-handler__container\"

Anthony), who tells her she was right along, before Douglas drops by to apologise for accidentally prescribing her a 50-gram dose of class-four psychotropic when she should have just been on a prescription for Zoloft (an anti-depressant). We also learn that Buell survived, with Anna allowing him to continue living in her attic.<\/p>\n<p>He apologises for living in the attic without her knowledge, saying he didn\u2019t feel comfortable leaving her all alone at night in the house after Douglas left. She forgives him and says that his \u201cheart was in the right place\u201d.<\/p>\n<h2>What happens to Anna in the final scenes?<\/h2>\n<p>At a gallery opening for Anna\u2019s new art projects, Sloane reveals that she\u2019s been offered a job at a new gallery in New York and Anna tells her to accept it. She then sees Douglas with a woman who appears to be his new girlfriend so she goes to leave, but he heads over to say hello. He then reveals that his guest is actually his work colleague Claire and not his girlfriend, and the two get back together. Anna realises that she\u2019s no longer afraid of the rain and stands in it happily.<\/p>\n<p>A year later, Anna is heading off to New York to visit Sloane while Douglas stays at home with their new baby. While on the plane, Anna reveals that she no longer drinks wine but asks for a vodka.<\/p>\n<p>A mysterious woman, played by Glenn Close, sits down next to her. Shortly afterwards, Anna falls asleep and wakes up to find the woman has gone. She heads to the toilet but is horrified to see her dead body in the cubicle.<\/p>\n<p>When she tries to alert a member of staff, they discover that the body is no longer there and reveals that there was never a woman in the seat next to her.<\/p>\n<p>Just as Anna begins to question her sanity yet again, she finds the woman\u2019s compact mirror down the side of the seat and says, \u201cBingo,\u201d before the credits role.<\/p>\n<p>The final segment on the plane appears to set up a further mystery for either a potential second season of the show or to give us a fun open ending to leave Anna on.<\/p>\n<p>The last-minute conspiracy to hide a grisly death seems to hint at further antics for Anna to face while also making us question her psychological state once again.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Woman in the House Across the Street from the Girl in the Window is available to stream on Netflix.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><span class=\"&quot;s1&quot;\">Check out our lists of the\u00a0<a href=\"&quot;https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/what-to-watch-tv\/best-tv-shows-netflix\/&quot;\"><span class=\"&quot;s2&quot;\">best series on Netflix<\/span><\/a>\u00a0and the\u00a0<a href=\"&quot;https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/movies\/what-to-watch\/netflix-best-movies\/&quot;\"><span class=\"&quot;s2&quot;\">best movies on Netflix<\/span><\/a>, or see\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"&quot;s3&quot;\">what else is on with our\u00a0<a href=\"&quot;https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/tv-listings\/&quot;\"><span class=\"&quot;s2&quot;\">TV Guide<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/strong><\/p><\/body><\/html>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Lauren Morris Published: Friday, 28 January 2022 at 12:00 am Brand new satirical thriller The Woman in the House Across the Street from the Girl in the Window (*pauses for breath*) arrives on Netflix today, with Kristen Bell leading the The Woman in the House cast as a heartbroken woman who becomes convinced that [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":24,"featured_media":10493,"template":"","categories":[5],"acf":[],"uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2022\/01\/the-woman-in-the-house-ending-explained-who-killed-lisa.jpg",620,413,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2022\/01\/the-woman-in-the-house-ending-explained-who-killed-lisa-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2022\/01\/the-woman-in-the-house-ending-explained-who-killed-lisa-300x200.jpg",300,200,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2022\/01\/the-woman-in-the-house-ending-explained-who-killed-lisa.jpg",620,413,false],"large":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2022\/01\/the-woman-in-the-house-ending-explained-who-killed-lisa.jpg",620,413,false],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2022\/01\/the-woman-in-the-house-ending-explained-who-killed-lisa.jpg",620,413,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2022\/01\/the-woman-in-the-house-ending-explained-who-killed-lisa.jpg",620,413,false]},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"importmanagerhub@sprylab.com","author_link":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/radiotimes\/author\/importmanagerhubsprylab-com\/"},"uagb_comment_info":0,"uagb_excerpt":"By Lauren Morris Published: Friday, 28 January 2022 at 12:00 am Brand new satirical thriller The Woman in the House Across the Street from the Girl in the Window (*pauses for breath*) arrives on Netflix today, with Kristen Bell leading the The Woman in the House cast as a heartbroken woman who becomes convinced that&hellip;","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/radiotimes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/rss_feed\/10492"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/radiotimes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/rss_feed"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/radiotimes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/rss_feed"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/radiotimes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/24"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/radiotimes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10493"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/radiotimes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10492"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/radiotimes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10492"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
