Nancy and Ace's fate is explained by the director.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Summary The fate of Nancy Drew and Ace is explained by the series finale director. Returning for its farewell outing, Nancy Drew promised to bow out with its signature blend of spooky scares and romantic conflict. The show's final episode, "The Light Between Lives", delivers both in spades. In the end, Nancy and Ace end up together.
In comments to TVLine, series finale director Amanda Row talked about how Nancy and Ace found a way to acknowledge that they can't be apart. Row also sheds light on what makes the moment special, while also discussing what instructions she gave to McMann and Saxon for the scene. Read Row's quote below:
“When Ace says to Nancy, ‘Will you solve this last mystery with me?’ in my mind, that was, ‘Will you marry me?’ That was both of them acknowledging that there’s nothing they can possibly do to stay apart. They have to be together. And I love that. I love how big Nancy and Ace have become, because it was definitely not planned. It ended up just organically happening, which I think makes it so special.
“Especially because there was that gorgeous slow-motion shot wrapping around them when they kissed earlier this season. With this one, I wanted to keep it more still. I was echoing the same framing I did in [the Season 4 premiere] when they meet up at at Icarus Hall. I did the exact same conversation, but this time it had a different outcome.”
“This is about relief. This is about joy. This isn’t a dramatic we’re-having-our-first-kiss moment. This is about saying, ‘We can finally do this and enjoy each other.’ It’s supposed to be about that bubbly, butterfly feeling you get when you’re with somebody that you love. Shooting that was one of the most special things I’ve ever had to do.”
