  "account": "The finale of Dark Matter Season 2 sees Jason and his family facing an increasingly grim situation. The group plans to destroy the original box, believing it will halt the bizarre quantum entanglement phenomena and stop world-hopping. However, the plan appears to succeed, as Jason and Blair manage to destroy the box and confirm its demise when the timer hits zero.\n\nWith the box gone, travel between dimensions is no longer possible. However, this leaves Jason's wife Blair and son trapped in another world, as they are unable to reunite with him. Meanwhile, Daniela and Charlie, who had hoped to find a way back to the Dessens' world, encounter a strange ripple and uncertainty upon opening the box door. Though it seems clear they're not back in the Dessens' world, the episode ends on a cliffhanger, leaving open the possibility that they may eventually reunite, assuming Dark Matter Season 3 gets renewed.",
