The Latest Plan

Everybody
dies.
Final words
from the gangster
on a popular television series,
spoken in a modulated voice with no emotion.
Did I hear that right? I was shocked because there's always one survivor.

Isn't
there?
Someone hidden?
A plot twist:
audiences know; the killer doesn't.
But that's not how things turn out now.
No one outwits fate. Viewers ponder how, when, why, never if. Everybody dies.
