MASSIVE SPOILERS AHEAD
Sense 8 gets better and better with each new episodes. The final scene was a really emotional one.
Dealing with death of the cluster member's family is something the series has to do seriously, and not lightly. Take Sun's father for example. His death has caused consequences that makes up for some very important plot points for later episodes.
But Will Gorsky's father's death might not be as consequential as Sun's father's death. And that's why this sequence had to be dealt in a different way. And how did the makers handle this - pouring all the emotions in at once.
You can feel the situation in which Will is trapped. He can see his father die, he can hear him saying "I want to see my son". But his father cannot see Will. This frustration can be seen where Will cries in the darkness. The shadow covers his face.
The very next shot is of a young Will, crying beside his father urging him not to go. And this Will's face is fully lightened. It shows the mental condition of Will currently. He is in a more darker state of mind, and trapped in his own mind.
Just as the scene finishes, the end credits roll. With no sound.
Absolute Silence.
This might be the first time I lingered around 30-40 seconds more, just watching the credits. The Wachowskis found a way to include a very powerful emotion in end credits as well. That's not ordinary. They are fricking genius.
Sense 8 never disappoints. Wachowskis never disappoints.
