Sam Nelson has survived a plane hijacking. Then a Berlin U-Bahn nightmare. Now, in the season finale of Hijack, everything comes down to one final, explosive move. Episode 8 is titled “Terminal” — and after Episode 7’s jaw-dropping cliffhanger, it promises to be one of the most intense hours of television in 2026.

What Happened in Episode 7?

Episode 7 (“Contact”) set the stage perfectly for the finale. Sam’s innocence was finally proven when Ada Winter uncovered the recording Marsha had made — but that relief came with a brutal cost. Jess got shot protecting Sam from Lang’s guards, and in the chaos that followed, Sam made the bold call to move all passengers to the rear coaches to buy time and lives.

Meanwhile, Marsha — injured and on the run — managed to contact Daniel after evading attackers through a forest. Lang killed Linder in cold blood to prevent exposure. The net is tightening on all sides, and everyone is now dangerously close to the edge.

What to Expect in Episode 8

Apple TV+’s official synopsis puts it plainly: “With the handover imminent, Sam is prepared to put his life on the line to save Marsha — and expose the truth.”

That “handover” is the key word. Lang’s plan has been moving toward a specific transfer moment all season, and Episode 8 will reveal what it is — and whether Sam can stop it in time. With Jess injured, Marsha still exposed, and Ada Winter now holding the recording, the question isn’t just whether Sam survives. It’s whether he can finally end this — and bring the real orchestrators down.

The season sits at 73% on Rotten Tomatoes — not quite matching Season 1’s stellar 90%, but Episode 8 has every chance to change the conversation with a strong landing.
