Recap of The Umbrella Academy Season 3 Episode 5: Kindest Cut

At the very beginning of Episode 5 of The Umbrella Academy season 3, viewers saw Klaus waking up in a monochromatic black and white world after accidentally getting shot by Stanley. It seemed like he was in a state of limbo. He was seen walking towards a bench where he started reliving some dreadful haunting memories.

Klaus first saw Reginald experimenting with his young version within a mausoleum. After that, he witnessed his teenage version fall off the roof, and lastly, he saw his latest demise after getting shot by a harpoon.

Soon, Klaus realized that he could avoid death as he saw his mother in the vision, informing him that he had died fifty-six times till now. It would appear as if Klaus was blessed with immortality.

Upon returning from the bar, Diego found Stanley trying to dissolve Klaus’ body in the hallway. Seeing Klaus still in a state of purgatory, Diego wrapped up his body with the rug and started taking his body downstairs. Suddenly, Klaus regained consciousness after exchanging some meaningful words with his mother in his afterlife vision.
