In the episodes leading up to the end of House of Cards, Claire uses a move that Frank never could have: she announces that she's pregnant. It's unclear whether the baby is really Frank's (as she tells the nation) or whether it's actually Tom Yates' baby (Claire says it's a "50-50" chance). Regardless, Claire goes from the verge of impeachment to b...
One of the most surprising reveals of the finale was that Doug Stamper - a man so devoted to Frank that he continued to fight for him even after his death - was actually responsible for killing him. However, it makes sense in light of Doug's character arc this season; with Frank gone, Doug is determined to protect his legacy as a great man, and get...
Doug Stamper is literally the man who knows where the bodies are buried. He worked with Frank for twenty years and carried out some of his most nefarious and criminal schemes, and in one of his final acts Frank changed his will, leaving everything to Doug. He also left a USB drive containing his audio diary, knowing that Doug could use it as a weap...
Murdering a man in the Oval Office might be the most brazen crime either Frank or Claire has ever committed - and yet it's pretty clear that she's going to get away with it. Colonel Flora is already in custody, and after entering her office Doug handed Claire a list of all the assassination co-conspirators, which she can use to take down her enemie...
With Doug dead and the threat of what he knows (as well as the threat of Frank's audio diary) gone, Claire no longer really needs the distraction of the nuclear crisis. In an aside earlier in the episode, she admitted that she really didn't want to have to go down the route of a nuclear attack, so it's likely that she would back down from the threa...
As far as America is concerned, the widowed President Hale is carrying her late husband's baby... but the audience knows that things aren't quite that simple. In a conversation with her younger self, Claire suggests that there's a "50-50 chance" that she's carrying a "demon seed," which strongly implies that she doesn't know whether it's Frank's ba...
Perhaps the biggest twist of House of Cardsseason 6 is the reveal that Frank Underwood's many asides to the audience were seemingly excerpts from a secret audio diary that he kept throughout the show. It's perhaps a little far-fetched that Frank would leave record a villain monologue of all his terrible acts (which, if found, could ruin him), but i...
While some might believe thatHouse of Cardsis about American government being under attack by an unprecedented level of deviousness, corruption, and evil, the lingering message of the show - and season 6 in particular - is that what Frank and Claire did isn't really out of the ordinary. There's no indication that America is spinning towards open fa...
