What happened in Pose season 2 episode 10 and how did its ending set the scene for the show’s third and final season? Groundbreaking FX drama Pose is set in New York during the late 1980s and early 1990s and explores the Big Apple’s ballroom scene – the vibrant subculture founded by the city’s Black and Latino LGBTQ community that spawned voguing, RuPaul’s Drag Race and phrases like “spilling the tea.” The show has been praised for both its focus on a largely underrepresented culture and raising the profile of the talented transgender actors that make up its cast, like Mj Rodriguez, Dominique Jackson and Indya Moore.
After a successful debut season, Pose roared back onto FX with a second season that was uplifting and heartbreaking in equal measure. Set in 1990, Pose season 2 saw its characters go through major changes: as voguing went mainstream thanks to Madonna’s hit song “Vogue,” the drag ball community was hit hard by the AIDS epidemic, including Blanca (Mj Rodriguez) who found out her HIV-positive diagnosis had developed into AIDS and Pray Tell (Billy Porter), who suffered a severe reaction to his AZT medication. Blanca and her friends and frenemies were also rocked by the brutal murder of House of Ferocity mother Candy (Angelica Ross) at the hands of a client.
The season 2 finale both tied up a lot of loose ends and suggested certain plot points that could set up the last season of Pose. Titled “In My Heels,” Pose season 2 episode 10 fast-forwarded to May 1991 and found Blanca struggling with both her medical condition and the fact her adopted children were flying the nest, with Damon (Ryan Jamaal Swain) becoming a successful choreographer and the newly engaged Angel (Indya Moore) and Papi (Angel Bismark Curiel) leaving for Germany to further Angel’s modeling career.
Although Blanca’s kids were departing, the ending of Pose season 2 episode 10 suggested the House of Evangelista still had a future with a touching scene that saw Blanca and Pray Tell taking a new pair of LGBTQ teen runaways (Quincy and Chilly, played by KJ Aikens and Gia Parr) under their wing. It’s implied Blanca will continue acting as a mother figure in New York’s ballroom scene and her newly adopted kids could become the next generation of the House of Evangelista.
The third and final season of Pose is set to premiere in May 2021. Set in 1994, Pose season 3 will see Blanca juggling a new romantic relationship with the responsibilities of being a mother and a new job as a nurse’s aide. While it’s not yet known if Quincy and Chilly will feature in Pose season 3, it certainly seems like Blanca will still be acting as a mother figure in some capacity to New York’s LGBTQ community.
