The TV show Deep Cover (2025) ends with the trio—Kat, Marlon, and Hugh—successfully pulling off a sting operation against the drug kingpin Fly and his boss Metcalfe. Fly agrees to record a deal with his boss in exchange for immunity and a chance to reunite with his daughter. However, during the deal, Metcalfe tries to kill Fly, prompting the trio to intervene. In the ensuing shootout, Fly is shot but saved by a bulletproof vest, Metcalfe is killed by Shosh, and Shosh escapes without immunity. The trio then return to their normal lives, with hints of future undercover work and a possible sequel.


Narrated scene by scene, the ending unfolds as follows:

Kat, Marlon, and Hugh, having infiltrated Fly’s gang under the guidance of Detective Billings, confront Fly with the revelation that they have been undercover cops all along. They propose a deal: if Fly can secretly record a conversation with his boss Metcalfe admitting to criminal activity, he will be granted immunity and allowed to return to his daughter. Fly agrees, and the trio, along with the police, monitor the deal via CCTV.

As the deal progresses, Fly’s demeanor shifts from that of a hardened narcotics kingpin to a man desperate for a way out. Suddenly, Metcalfe attempts to kill Fly to prevent the betrayal. The police refuse to intervene directly, so Kat, Marlon, and Hugh step in to protect Fly. In the chaotic shootout, Metcalfe shoots Fly, but Fly’s bulletproof vest saves him from serious injury. Shosh, an associate of Fly and Metcalfe, kills Metcalfe by shooting him in the back. However, Shosh is not granted immunity and flees the scene to avoid arrest.

With the immediate threat neutralized, the trio’s mission concludes successfully. The final scenes show Kat returning to her teaching career, Hugh managing a wine shop, and Marlon landing a serious acting role, each having reclaimed their lives after the undercover ordeal. The police receive public credit for the bust, while the trio remain ready to assist in future crises as undercover informants. The closing moments hint at further adventures, suggesting a sequel.

Regarding the fates of the main characters involved in the ending:

  • Fly survives the shooting due to his bulletproof vest and gains immunity, allowing him to reunite with his daughter.
  • Metcalfe is killed by Shosh during the shootout.
  • Shosh escapes without immunity, her fate left open-ended.
  • Kat, Marlon, and Hugh return to their civilian lives but remain connected to law enforcement as potential undercover assets.

This detailed sequence highlights the resolution of the central conflict involving betrayal, survival, and redemption, with each character’s fate clearly delineated by the final scenes.
