Night of the End
People who spent years trying to kill one another sit around the same fire. For one night, everything that needs saying is said.
What happens
The alliance makes camp in the snow. Jean, Connie, Mikasa, Armin, Reiner, Annie, Pieck, Gabi and Falco sit around the same fire, with a mountain of dead between them.
What follows is not a reconciliation but a reckoning: each of them sets out what they have done, and only once it is all on the table can they fight together.
Why this episode matters
Many viewers call this the best episode of season 4, precisely because there is almost no action in it. The series takes its time to show that working together is not the same as forgiving.
Where does this episode fit?
