As many outlets (including this one) tried to warn you, the FX series Legion wrapped up tonight with a little nugget of a scene that appeared partway through the end credits. No, Samuel L. Jackson’s Nick Fury did not show up. And, no, David Haller (Dan Stevens) is not the new Venom—wrong studio anyway. So, what was happening in those final moments, and what can we expect for next season? Well, let’s discuss after a nice spoiler warning courtesy of our imaginary friend Lenny.

In case you missed, the final moments of Legion showed a victorious, battle-weary David and Syd (Rachel Keller) relaxing in the evening air on the deck of Summerland. “South, they’re headed South,” David tells Syd of Jemaine Clement’s Oliver Bird and his mental passenger Farouk (Aubrey Plaza). Apparently, David can still track his old parasite. A friendly-looking mechanical orb the size of a cantaloupe floats into view, scans David, and absorbs/dissolves him. As Syd cries out, we see David—trapped and screaming in the confines of the orb—flown off to a mysterious destination. So, who sent that orb and what, exactly, is it?

The simplest answer would be that the orb comes courtesy of one of Legion Season 1’s sub-villains: Division 3. This is the show-invented governmental task force that exploits and sometimes exterminates mutants in order to ensure, what, peace? Balance? Human supremacy? It’s unclear. Midway through the finale, the person in charge back at Division—watching a video feed of Farouk trying to break out of David—says, “Send the Equinox.” Earlier in the episode, he had mentioned sending a differently-named mysterious device, “the Peacemaker,” which sounds much more like a scorched-earth bombing approach. “The Equinox,” presumably, is a less final solution. There is no tech in the comics called “Equinox,” but there is a character by that name. Honestly, though, I don’t think that has anything to do with what we’re dealing with here.

So assuming we are dealing with a Division-sent device (and we’ll get to an alternate theory in a second), then Season 2 could open with David in governmental custody and Syd, Cary, Kerry, and the rest tasked with, once again, setting him free. It’s important to note that in Season 1, Episode 1, we learn that Division 1 (whatever that is) wanted to kill David, while Division 3 wanted to study him. We may learn which Division has more seniority here, and how the things Hamish Linklater’s disfigured Interrogator character has seen may influence what the government decides to do with David. Will he enlist David’s help in tracking down the Farouk-infected Oliver? He may.
