Hey, so you’ve just watched The Glass Dome on Netflix, and that ending probably left you like, “What just happened?!”
Don’t worry, I’ve got you covered. Let’s break it down together, step by step, like we’re hanging out and figuring it out over some snacks.
This Swedish thriller is wild, and I’m here to spill all the tea about who kidnapped Alicia and Lejla and why. Ready? Let’s go!
Who Kidnapped Alicia and Lejla?
Okay, here’s the jaw-dropping part: the kidnapper is Valter. Yeah, that Valter—the guy who adopted Lejla after she got away from being kidnapped as a kid.
Turns out, he’s the one who took her in the first place! And now, years later, he’s snatched Alicia too. It’s like, plot twist of the century!
Valter seemed all nice and dad-like, but nope, he’s the creepy bad guy behind it all. The Glass Dome totally tricked us!
Why Did Valter Do It?
So why would Valter do something so messed up? Well, he had a super rough childhood—think lots of yelling and no love.
It messed with his head big time. Instead of being normal, he got this weird thing where he wanted to control people, especially girls like Lejla and Alicia who seemed kind of lost or fragile.
Kidnapping them was his way of feeling strong, like he was the boss of a twisted little family he made up. It’s dark, but that’s what makes The Glass Dome so intense.
Oh, and get this: he adopted Lejla after kidnapping her to keep her close. It’s like he wanted to play the hero who “saved” her, but really, he just wanted to keep controlling her. Sneaky and gross, right?
Why Did Valter Kill Louise?
Louise was Alicia’s mom, and Valter killed her because she was in his way. She was one of those super protective moms who’d fight anyone to keep her kid safe.
Valter knew that, so he got rid of her before taking Alicia. It’s super cold, but it shows how far he’d go to pull off his creepy plan.
Did He Kill Lejla’s Mom Too?
Lejla’s real mom, Milena, is another mystery. Valter says she died from too many drugs, but come on—can we trust him? Probably not. It’s pretty likely he killed her too, just like Louise, so he could get to Lejla without anyone stopping him. He’s got this pattern of taking out moms to grab their kids. Chilling!
Were There More Victims?
Yup, Valter didn’t stop at Lejla and Alicia. He’s been doing this for years. The police find a bunch of bones in a river—sad proof that he’s hurt a lot of other girls too.
It’s heartbreaking to think about, but it shows he’s not just a one-time bad guy—he’s a total monster.
What Happens in the End?
Here’s where it gets epic. Tomas, Valter’s brother and a cop, shows up right when things are about to get even worse.
Valter’s trying to hurt Alicia, and Lejla’s stuck in that creepy glass dome again. Lejla’s super brave—she bangs her head on the glass to mess with Valter and slow him down. It works!
Tomas rushes in, shoots Valter in the leg (not the head, even though Valter’s begging for it), and arrests him. No revenge, just justice. Both girls make it out alive—phew!
Later, Lejla visits Valter in prison. He’s in a wheelchair now, but he’s still trying to creep her out, saying she’s trapped in his mind. Ew, right?
But Lejla’s tougher than that. She helps figure out who the other victims were and starts moving on, even if it’s tough.
Wrapping It Up
So, that’s the ending of The Glass Dome! It’s all about secrets, survival, and facing the past. Valter’s the bad guy hiding in plain sight, and it’s wild how he fooled everyone.
If you haven’t seen it yet, go watch it on Netflix—it’s a Swedish thriller that’ll keep you hooked. What do you think about that twist? Let me know!
