The body count reaches peak levels, and the finale ensures that the series will leave a mark. Nature versus nurture has been the central theme running through “Chucky,” which reaches a satisfying conclusion for Hackensack. It allows Jake to see Chucky’s acceptance of him and his sexuality for what it was- emotional manipulation- and confront him once and for all. Jake and Lexy let go of the hate in their hearts and found strength in friendship. Jake, Lexy, and Devon have come a long way since the premiere. Where other elements might seem rushed, it’s this defining arc that receives the room to breathe. “An Affair to Dismember” dedicates its focus to the story that began “Chucky,” with Jake and Hackensack finding closure one way or another. Though as requisite setup for a second season teases, that won’t be the case in the future. Save for a few moments of fan service and one sped-through sequence that raises massive questions, Chucky and Kyle feel superfluous to the inaugural season. Despite finally arriving in Hackensack to stop Chucky, albeit separately because of last week’s murky development, neither character feels all that relevant to the plot. The entire season hasn’t had much time to give legacy players Andy and Kyle, and the finale further highlights that. Not even a few significant blips on the way can stop this blood bath.ĬHUCKY - Pictured: Björgvin Arnarson as Devon Evans - (Photo by: Elly Dassas/SYFY/USA Network) Phase one of their nefarious plan targets the town’s Frankenstein fundraiser screening, finally clicking into place Chucky’s overarching goal. The finale puts multiple dolls in play, with Chucky bringing the patricidal Junior ( Teo Briones ) to his childhood home to meet Tiffany, a Chucky-inhabited Nica, and an entire squad of Good Guy dolls eager to do his bidding. It all comes to a head in “ An Affair to Dismember,” a chaotic finale to the show’s debut season – a second is on the way! – that wraps up loose ends and raises all new questions. Then there’s Andy ( Alex Vincent ) and Kyle ( Christine Elise McCarthy ), who’ve been on a road trip across the country to snuff out every piece of Chucky’s splintered soul, unaware that Tiffany’s helped him build up a new army. Tiffany ( Jennifer Tilly ) once again found herself struggling to get the love and respect she so desperately wanted from Chucky ( Brad Dourif ), causing her to turn to a terrified Nica ( Fiona Dourif ). Jake Wheeler ( Zackary Arthur ) overcame his isolation and rage to find a family in Lexy ( Alyvia Alyn Lind ) and Devon ( Bjorgvin Arnarson ). A lot of ground has been covered in just seven episodes of Don Mancini‘s “Chucky” series.
