Territory Season 1’s Opening Scene Is A Flashforward To After Susie’s Death
Emily Lawson’s voiceover teases Susie’s grisly end
Upon first watch , Emily Lawson ’s soliloquy at the start ofTerritoryseason 1 seems to just be a general summaryof what it ’s like to inhabit on Marianne Station . Sure , she look vaguely emotional too , but without any context , it ’s easy to promptly forget her misty - eyed conduct - that could , in theory , be due to absolutely anything . After Susie ’s brutal and unseasonable death in installment 6 , it becomes much more obvious thatTerritory ’s opening scene is showing Emily reflect on the loss of her girl .
" Everything up here is endeavor to kill you . The clime , the land … the animals . " - Emily Lawson .
Susie ’s dying at the horns of one of theLawson Familybulls is hard to predict until mighty before it happens . The show powerfully imply that , before her demise , Susie was one of the front - runners to inherit Marianne Stationfrom her grandfather . As such , it seems unconvincing thatTerritorywould take to stamp out her off . Unfortunately , that ’s exactly what encounter in time of year 1 ’s penultimate episode . So , when Emily ’s first step soliloquy is analyzed after Susie dies , the break before , " … the brute " comes across as much more big and far more poignant .

Marianne Station ’s new military recruit are thrust into the detention centre , and Emily rag them for their body oral communication and has to intervene to break off them from getting injured . The ecumenical content of the warning is that if they show their awe , the pig will come back and hurt others afterwards - think he ’s the " genus Bos . "
" You flinch , you ’re teaching that b*stard he ’s boss and he ’ll go [ after ] every single mortal he comes across after that , and that ’s how mass get killed . " - Emily Lawson .
Susie is n’t present in this scene , but it ’s baffling to ignore Emily ’s accurate prediction and not connect it to how Susie pass away in installment 5.Territorydoesn’t go full circle here , though . The two bulls are completely different colour , so it ’s obviousthe animal from the starting time of episode 1 is n’t the one that fatally commove Susie . However , the fact that it was one of the bulls Susie buy with her own money to save Marianne Station makes the scene even more upsetting .
Emily Lawson’s Voiceover In Territory’s First Scene May Give Away Something Else About The Show’s Future
Territory season 2 could be the show’s final outing (if it’s renewed)
Even thoughTerritoryseason 1 ends on a cliffhanger , Territoryseason 2 has n’t yet been announced . If it is , then one more batch of episodes may very well be all the Netflix show need to enfold up its news report . Emily ’s very first personal line of credit in the time of year 1 untier , which by denotation becomes the show ’s first melodic line overall , is:“People say the Territoryonly has two season . “Although Emily go on to say those two seasons are " drouth and flood , " she could quiet be give a ego - aware confirmation of how long the neo - Western will pass for .
One of Territory ’s biggest mystery is the nature of the skull Marshall and Sharnie found on Lawson land . Where did they come from , and when ?
It almost seems like there ’s too much going on forTerritoryseason 2 to wrap everything upin a satisfying style . Then again , it is technically possible . The writer may have had a two - time of year arc planned from the very get-go , which could explain Emily ’s line in the opening episode . Thestorylines set up up forTerritoryseason 2are sure to be just as pregnant and crashing as the opening streamlet of episodes , and the next batch could include an volatile ending if there ’s no programme to makeTerritoryseason 3 or beyond .
