Bittersweet Ending: Depending on who the viewer supports. On one hand, Peter successfully gets away with every crime or moral failing and becomes even more powerful as a result. Lily, Sydney, and Duncan end up suffering or getting dismissed as a result of Peter's success. On the other hand, Peter's friends have more control over him than he thinks and his wife's refusal to dissolve one of his private accounts could prove the end of his career if it gets exposed.
