From the beginning of the series, the audience could easily understand that the mother-daughter duo Stella and Toni were in search of Jude, the deserter known to them as the apostate.

The audience can see Stella and Toni looking for him in the final episode of Season 1, as well as the wicked Cornelius, who intended to kill Jude and considered it their mission. On their journey, Cornelius noticed a chamber nearby, and it was there that they found Jude and Denise.

Cornelius rushed to York's house with Toni and he ordered Stella to complete her mission by catching and killing Jude. Stella started firing at Jude and Denise. Jude made Denise drive away from there to her grand parent's house. In quite a thrilling scene, the audience can see Stella chasing Jude with a gun.

There comes a moment when they are all inside Yok's living room where Cornelius ordered Toni to shoot Jude but Stella takes the gun to shoot him. However, she couldn't. Hence, Stella took a step back from completing her mission.


What did the Yorks find on the alien planet?

Franklin can be seen as on the alien planet looking for their neighbor Byron near the end of Season 1 of Night Sky. When he arrived at a specific location, he discovered someone laying on the ground with a knife inside him. He suddenly began to gasp for air and fainted.

Later on, the series shows that Irene arrived to look for Franklin and she has realized that the air of the alien planet was breathable. When she found Franklin and woke him up, they both discovered a human town under some kind of an alien construct.


The end of Night Sky Season 1 also showed that when Stella and Toni were rushing in their car, taking a tied-up Cornelius with them, another car started hitting their van, leading to a serious accident. There, a new woman was introduced to the audience, who took all of them with her. Who was that woman? Only time will tell.
