The finale and seventh episode of Hijack, an AppleTV+ original series, was released on 2 August 2023. The episode titled Brace Brace Brace was directed by Jim Field Smith.

Hijack episode 7 (finale) ending explained: What happened to Stuart?
The episode began with the revelation of the new hijacker, Amanda Taunton. She was a highly skilled terrorist, however, operating under a criminal boss. Sam was still being held at gunpoint by Stuart. The former asked the latter who the new terrorist was and learned that the new person was not on the team.
While everyone was trying to solve this new problem, the passengers started to take the upper hand. They began tying up the hijackers and Sam demanded Stuart to hand over his gun. After getting hold of Stuart's gun, Sam tried to calm down the enraged passengers. He announced that the hijack was over.
All the original terrorists had been neutralized but Amanda posed a new threat. She was ignoring UK air traffic control and headed straight to central London. When the country's government learned that the flight was coming to the city, the RAF sent in fighter jets. They wanted to gun down the plane. While this was transpiring, government official Tindall realized that they had been the victim of a bear raid.
The hijack had been in the news and the stock prices of Kingdom Airlines bumped. Everything had turned into a game of money. On the ground, Kai got rescued by Daniel and John betrayed Janssen. John even asked Devlin to cash in his shares.
Back on the plane, everyone was stressed. Amanda was in complete control and the RAF jets were ready to fire. Sam learned that the new hijacker's daughter too was a hostage. Sam managed to enter the cockpit and managed to convince Home Secretary to forgive Amanda for her crimes.
Even though there was limited fuel, the plane made an emergency landing. Everyone survived and the cops helped them exit the plane. Stuart, yet again, tried to trick everybody but in the end, Sam managed to take him down. All the hijackers had been arrested and Sam was free to reunite with his family.
