Netflix’s Dept. Q is going to tell you all about Merritt Lingard’s kidnapping! And Dept. Q Ending Explained too. Let’s explain it in a very simple way.
Who kidnapped Merritt?
Merritt was kidnapped by a man named Lyle Jennings. He was angry because he blamed her for the death of his brother Harry.
Look, a long time ago, Merritt and Harry were close as teenagers. Harry tried to steal her mother’s rings to help her, but it went badly. Her brother William was injured and Harry died after jumping off a ferry.
Lyle and his mother Ailsa were furious, so they grabbed Merritt off a ferry four years ago. They locked her in this terrifying hyperbaric chamber – like a torture tank – to make her pay.

How did it end?
Detective Carl Mork and his team from Department Q cracked the case. This is a great team that solves old mysteries. After some serious detective work, they find Merritt in that chamber.
Lyle tries to fight back, but he is killed in the chaos. His mother, Elsa, panics and ends her own life. Merritt comes out alive, she returns with her brother William and begins to recover. Department Q? They get a big high-five with more money and props for solving it.

Ending Easy Explanation:
This deal is in stages:
- Why her? Lyle thought Merritt caused Harry’s death, so he wanted revenge.
- Trap: They kept her in that chamber for four years – a lot of chaos!
- Rescue: Carl and his team swoop in and rescue her.
- Battle: Lyle dies, Elsa gives up, and Merritt is free.
- What next? She’s now with William, resting and recovering.
- Big win: Department Q is blowing it up with more money and fame.
So yeah, that’s the end of it all! Merritt is safe, the bad guys are gone, and Carl’s team is ending everything. Pretty bad, right? If you have more information about Department Q, let us know in the comments.
