Snowpiercer: Melanie's Return Creates The Series’ Best Twist
Warning: SPOILERS for Snowpiercer Season 3, Episode 9 — «A Beacon For Us All»
Melanie Cavill's (Jennifer Connelly) return in Snowpiercer season 3, episode 9 saw her betray Andre Layton (Daveed Diggs) and New Eden in an amazing twist. Melanie miraculously survived over six months alone in the frozen Earth by commandeering a Wilford track vehicle and sustaining herself with the same suspension drugs used in the Drawers. After Mr. Wilford (Sean Bean) determined that Melanie was alive and following Snowpiercer, he told her daughter Alex (Rowan Blanchard), who, in turn, helped mobilize Layton's leadership group to successfully rescue Melanie.
In the months that Melanie was believed dead, she never left the thoughts of Snowpiercer's main characters. Layton's mission to find New Eden was to honor Cavill's memory since it was Melanie who acquired the data that proves parts of the Earth are starting to warm. Meanwhile, Alex and Wilford each coped with the loss of Melanie in their own ways. Alex kept her mother's memory alive and imagined speaking to her while Wilford also secretly misses his formidable nemesis and envisioned having Cavill back to match wits with. Bennett Knox (Iddo Goldberg) also carried the scars of losing Melanie as her significant other for the past fifteen years, and Ruth Wardell (Alison Wright) still thinks of the years she was Melanie's best friend and worked alongside her as the Heads of Hospitality. Melanie's return was a joyous occasion for her closest friends and Snowpiercer delivered heartwarming reunions between her, Alex, Ben, Ruth, Javier De La Torre (Roberto Urbina), and Layton, who was once Cavill's fiercest rival.
