Is Jane still alive in the 'Paradise' Season 2 finale?

The Paradise Season 2 finale was so chock-full of quantum computing talk and nuclear meltdown panic that you might have missed a key detail about one major character: Jane Driscoll (Nicole Brydon Bloom) may still be alive.

The last viewers saw of Jane, she was attempting to assassinate Dr. Torabi (Sarah Shahi) while she was in the shower. However, Dr. Torabi pulled a reverse Uno on Jane's Psycho plan with an ambush of her own, stabbing the rogue Secret Service agent. The fight ended with Jane bleeding out on the bathroom floor.

But is that really how a killer as relentless as Jane would go out on Paradise? The show's Season 2 finale, "Exodus," suggests not.

Towards the end of the action-packed episode, after the bunker's inhabitants evacuate due to an impending nuclear meltdown, Paradise shows scenes from the now-deserted bunker. Among them is a shot of Dr. Torabi's shower, which is now totally empty. That can only mean one thing: Jane somehow managed to leave Dr. Torabi's house. Knowing her, she probably even made it out of the bunker before it blew up, meaning she's loose and, let's face it, likely after the woman who stabbed her.

Jane being alive isn't that big a twist for Paradise. No one in this show seems to stay dead. Even dead characters return for flashbacks, and with the possibility of time travel on the horizon, maybe a resurrection or two is in the show's future. (Justice for Shailene Woodley's Annie!)

Plus, there are a few Jane-related loose ends Paradise needs to wrap up. In a flashback in Season 2, episode 6, a Circuit City employee named Don (Francois Battiste) gets a message that a killer will be born, and that she can be stopped if she hears the right message. That killer is Jane. Although we never actually hear what the all-important message is, we do know it was sent by a user named AlexQ, who is probably the very same Alex as Sinatra's (Julianne Nicholson) AI-powered quantum computer. Why did Alex send this message from the future, and what is the exact message that will stop Jane? That's for Paradise creator Dan Fogelman to know, and Season 3 to answer.

Paradise Season 2 is now streaming on Hulu.
