If you’ve somehow slept on Apple TV+’s hilarious and heartfelt series Murderbot, now is the time to binge all of Season 1. Because, with the release of Episode 10, “The Perimeter,” the first story in the Murderbot chronicles is now complete, and the events of the finale are simply perfect. Not only does the show stay faithful to the ending of the first Martha Wells novella, All Systems Red, but the final episode also delivers an incredibly emotional resolution that creates an ending both as inevitable as it is unexpected. It’s a stand-out performance for series star and Murderbot himself, Alexander Skarsgård. But the secret MVP of “The Perimeter” might be David Dastmalchian.
Spoilers ahead.
