Things are set up to where each character could come back into the story yet again in what would be a sequel anthology series of sorts. This may be why Marvel Television's Jeph Loeb and others have expressed interest in telling the story again with the same cast and a different scenario, provided creator Noah Hawley (who is said to have ended things the way he initially pitched the series) is willing to pen another script.

Will he still become a villain anyway, or will Farouk break his promise and occupy David's mind again? I'd like to think no, but c'mon, he's one of the franchise's biggest antagonists.Īs stated above, the ending of Legion Season 3 leaves things a bit open-ended. He has a new beginning, and while there are teases of what that life will entail, Legion fans are largely left to guess how David's life will turn out from there.
#LEGION EPISODE 3 SUMMARY FULL#
It's a new beginning, but in many ways comes full circle as David's life cycles back to the start. The tease seems to indicate Charles will start his road towards creating the X-Men, but this time he'll be married and have what we would assume is one of his first recruits to the academy. Another possibility is that many of his former friends work his way into David's life eventually, as Charles notes to Gabby it's his wish to settle down and begin teaching. This means he won't know his former sister Amy, likely won't meet Lenny (the real or fictional version), his other friends from Legion Season 3 or otherwise, or Syd.Īt least, that's one possibility. We're not shown how everything changes, but the assumption is that David's changed childhood means he won't be adopted and will be raised as David Xavier, not Haller. The plan was put in place, and slowly but surely, everything came together.

Take that, plus Syd convincing David's mother not to abandon David despite her own emotional issues, and David would presumably live a normal life.

In this new timeline, Farouk would not interfere with Charles Xavier, and Xavier would stop his endless travel and be the father he never was to David. The conversation led the two "fathers" to a truce, in which they later explained to a frustrated future David and past Farouk that were entangled in battle moments before. Charles could kill Farouk, but would it guarantee that David turned into the best version of himself he could possibly be? The abandonment of his parents certainly caused some emotional trauma and also shaped David into the adult that Charles eventually realized is unwell. Through that shared mental space, Farouk learned that while he may deserve a lot of credit for David's transformation, there's more to how he became the person that he is. Though their dynamic is antagonistic, Farouk revealed that the Legion main character has been somewhat of a son to him, as he's gained some empathy for him through their shared mental space. There, the two discuss over drinks the life David has led, and Farouk claims some responsibility for driving David insane by hiding himself away in his mind. This makes him willing to go along with David's plan to kill Farouk as his first meeting, though it's clear he's disturbed by David's personality and not as conditioned to violence as his son has become.īefore Charles can kill the Farouk of his present, he is interrupted by the Farouk of the future, who suggests the two have a sit down.

Charles Xavier is somewhat floored by the appearance of his adult son from the future, and is also leveled by the news that he would ultimately go on to abandon his current infant child.
