After Euphoria viewers questioned what exactly happened between Alamo and Maddy, the show’s presumed series finale clarified whether they had a sexual relationship.
During the Sunday, May 31, episode, Maddy (Alexa Demie) visited Alamo (Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje) at his strip club after striking a deal with him in the past to save Nate’s (Jacob Elordi) life. Cassie’s (Sydney Sweeney) husband died anyway but now Maddy was in debt to Alamo, which he wasn’t in the mood to collect in the finale.
Instead, Alamo contemplated his life choices before making a move on Maddie. More specifically, he propositioned Maddy by asking her to have his kids so he could have a more wholesome family life instead of running drugs and other seedy ventures.
Alamo then started to touch Maddy — who got on his lap — but the scene cut out before the viewer saw what happened next. It was at that point that Ali (Colman Domingo) started to shoot up the club to get Alamo’s attention. Despite the interruption, the audience was meant to assume that Maddy gave in to Alamo’s advances — albeit briefly — in order to keep herself alive.
The confirmation came after a past episode had viewers confused. In an episode earlier in the season, Alamo made Maddy put on a bathing suit and get in the hot tub. He ultimately agreed to help Maddy get the $1 million needed to save Nate and the scene cut off.
Viewers then wondered if the scene hinted at Maddy having to sleep with Alamo to secure the deal but that wasn’t clarified.
The HBO series, which premiered in 2019, originally followed troubled high school student Rue as she struggled to remain sober after rehab, and also unpacked the complicated lives of those around her. Euphoria was quickly renewed for a second season after its premiere, but it took nearly three years for the episodes to air.
The wait between season 2 to season 3 was even longer due to scheduling conflicts, industry strikes, a time jump in the plot and other obligations.
Creator Sam Levinson’s commitment to his short-lived series The Idol and the dual WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes led to season 3 being dragged out. The show officially returned in 2026 with Rue getting caught up in the world of drug trafficking, Cassie turning to OnlyFans to make money while her husband, Nate, is pushed to the brink over the debt he owes to some dangerous people.
Before Euphoria wrapped up its third season, Levinson wouldn’t directly confirm — or deny — what is to come for the show.
“[I write] every season like it’s the last season,” he told Variety in April. “[I have] no plans [for season 4].”
He continued: “I want to finish this as strong as I can. I’m cutting [episodes] 7 and 8 still. I’m putting some finishing touches. I just want to deliver a f**king slam dunk season.”
Euphoria is now streaming on HBO Max.
