Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen Ending Explained: Showrunner Breaks Down Final Twist
The finale exposes a generational curse forcing soulmates to marry or die, with Rachel becoming immortal and assuming the role of The Witness, marking a new chapter in the bloodline.
- Netflix's 'Something Very Bad Is Going To Happen' concluded with a deadly soulmate curse reveal for engaged couple Rachel Harkin and Nicky Cunningham, exploring their doomed bond as a 'break-up story,' according to showrunner Haley Z Boston.
- The Witness, played by Zlatko Buric, explains that Rachel's bloodline carries a curse: individuals must marry their soulmate or die; abandoning a partner at the altar transfers the curse to the fiancé's family.
- At the altar, Nicky refuses to marry Rachel, insisting marriage is a 'poison' in his family; Rachel realizes they are not soulmates, triggering the curse and causing family deaths.
- Following the carnage, Rachel survives as an immortal being despite initially bleeding out in the snow, eventually driving away from the Cunningham family and her past life.
- Assuming the role of The Witness, Rachel encounters Jude and leaves a blood-scrawled note reading, 'You're next.' She is now doomed to witness the weddings of others while remaining eternally alive.
