The Umbrella Academy’s Lila Return Fixes A Season 2 Ending Problem
The Umbrella Academy's season 2 ending left a host of unresolved questions over Lila's fate, but season 3 is already fixing its Pitts problem. Played by Ritu Arya, The Umbrella Academy introduced Lila Pitts as a brand new member of the 43 super-powered children. Plucked from loving parents by the Commission's evil Handler, Lila was raised into a strong, loyal agent possessing the power to replicate other superpowers. Meeting her brothers and sisters in the Umbrella Academy sparked a change in Lila, and they ultimately helped her navigate The Handler's labyrinth of lies.
The Umbrella Academy season 2 ends with Lila turning against her adoptive mother and siding with the Hargreeves siblings. In an emotional reunion, Diego even promises Lila they can become the true family she always dreamed of, but hell breaks loose before she can properly answer, and Lila's final contribution to The Umbrella Academy season 2 is vanishing into the unknown using a Commission briefcase. This open-ended farewell left Lila Pitts' story frustratingly ambiguous. Would she accept the offer of becoming an honorary Hargreeves sibling, or would she resent them for The Handler's death? The Umbrellas might even resent her for rudely abandoning them in 1963 without a time-hopping briefcase.
