Reacher Just Teased The Perfect Way For Alan Ritchson's Character To Finally Kill Quinn In Season 3's Ending
Warning! This article contains spoilers for Reacher season 2's episode 5.
With one scene, Reacher season 3's episode 5 might have secretly given away how Jack Reacher will eventually kill Quinn. There are many layers to Jack Reacher's mission in season 3. He is working undercover and trying to understand the true nature of Zachary Beck's illegal business with Xavier Quinn because of his strong sense of justice. Reacher is also helping Duffy uncover the truth about a woman named Teresa's fate, who was forced to work as an informant in Beck's Bizarre Bazaar operation before Reacher went undercover.
However, the Alan Ritchson character's primary motive is driven by his desire to seek revenge. For a long time, he believed that he had avenged Dominique Kohl's death by killing her murderer, Xavier Quinn. However, to his surprise, Quinn somehow survived after their last encounter. While only time will tell how Reacher will finally murder Quinn to quench his thirst for vengeance, Reacher season 3's episode 5 might have hinted at his eventual plan.

Reacher season 3's episode 5 features a scene in which one of Zachary Beck's henchmen shows Jack Reacher how he gets rid of dead bodies. He takes Reacher to the rocky shore behind Zachary Beck's home and shows him a pit where a tidal flush takes away everything that is thrown into it. The grunt even demonstrates this by dumping bodies in the pit and pointing out how it takes one flush from the sea to take them away. Considering an intriguing detail from Jack Reacher's backstory, it is hard not to believe that he might ultimately use the same pit to dump Quinn's body.
Where Beck's Mansion Is In Real Life: Reacher Season 3 Filming Location Explained
The scenes which take place at Beck's mansion in Reacher season 3 were not actually filmed on a property on the coast of Maine, but rather in Canada.
The flashback in Reacher season 3's episode 4 reveals that the Alan Ritchson character shot Quinn at the edge of a cliff to ensure that his body was never found. He killed Quinn because he wanted to punish him for harming his colleague, Dominique Kohl. By shooting him off the cliff, Reacher also made sure that his body would never be traced back to him. Given how Reacher might have to pull off something similar in season 3, it seems possible that he will dump his body in the tidal flush pit after he kills him.
Reacher Can't Just Toss Quinn Off A Cliff Again
He Will Ensure He Is Dead This Time
When Reacher told his mentor and senior officer, Leon Garber, that he was going to kill Quinn for harming Dominique, Garber told him to "do it once and do it right." Garber had also previously taught him that, in an investigation, "assumptions kill." Unfortunately, when Reacher attempts to kill Quinn, he fails to implement the lessons Garber taught him. He assumes that Quinn is dead after he shoots him off the cliff. However, little does he realize that his bullet had lodged in Quinn's skull and did not cause enough damage to kill him.

Reacher never makes the same mistake twice and seemingly learned the hard way that assumptions do indeed kill. Therefore, instead of merely pushing Quinn off the cliff and dumping him in the pit behind Beck's home, Jack Reacher will first ensure he is actually dead. Without leaving any shadow of doubt about Quinn's fate, the Alan Ritchson character will take all the necessary steps to confirm his death in Reacher season 3 before getting rid of his body.
Reacher follows Jack Reacher, a former military police investigator, as he navigates civilian life. Without a phone and carrying minimal belongings, Reacher drifts across the country, experiencing the nation he once served, and encounters intriguing challenges along the way.
