This series has proceeded in a kind of ethical limbo throughout. Many people are killed, some good, some bad, but all as a result of the plot to kill the President. The attitude towards all this killing has seemed to be that some innocents died but most who died deserved it, and anyway, the end justified the means.
This episode at least attempts to rectify this ambivalence of morality. Wrong is wrong serves as the final message. Non-participants and those who strove to stay above the amoral fray win in the end. Those who did not, for the most part, receive appropriate punishment, or at least are haunted by their actions.
The final episode is very thrilling with a number of twists. The end is predictable, but how the episode got to the end is not. Clearly, the series is wrapped up, conceding that this is in effect the series finale.
