Memory ending explained: What happens to Alex?

As a seasoned detective with over three decades of service under my belt, I’ve seen my fair share of twisted plots and unscrupulous characters. But the tale of Alex and Davana Sealman, as portrayed in the gripping thriller “Memory,” has left an indelible mark on me.

Note: The following article contains discussion of child abuse.

Liam Neeson’s tradition of high-octane, vengeance-driven action films persists with the release of “Memory“, a film that can now be streamed on Netflix in the United Kingdom.

Under the guidance of Martin Campbell, who directed Casino Royale, this intricate tale follows a ruthless assassin transforming into a champion of justice, battling overwhelming obstacles in his quest for retribution.

Alex Neeson is an accomplished hitman who’s been diagnosed with early Alzheimer’s. This illness is causing his memory to become hazy and untrustworthy. Despite this, he takes on a task from a risky criminal group. However, when he learns that the job involves killing a 13-year-old girl named Beatriz Mia Sanchez, he changes his mind and decides not to carry it out.

Later on, I find out that the girl I cared about, Beatriz, was brutally taken by another assassin. Determined to bring justice to her memory, I put myself in harm’s way to uncover the truth. This journey could potentially expose a vast web of sex trafficking and corruption here in El Paso, but I’m ready to face whatever comes next.

Under constant threat from the FBI, particularly agent Vincent Serra (Guy Pearce), and with a relentless pursuit, Alex embarks on a quest to gather all the incriminating evidence against a crime syndicate, which includes his client Davana Sealman (Monica Bellucci). Despite his foggy memory, he presses forward, undeterred, until he brings justice to light.

Major spoilers follow.

Memory ending explained

Before the murder of Beatriz, Alex initially aimed for Ellis Van Camp (Scot Williams), a wealthy contractor, as his first target. He eliminated him to seize a flash drive hidden in his home safe. However, when Ellis declined further cooperation and Beatriz was killed, Alex managed to gain access to the flash drives and uncovered the true reason behind his hiring.

In an attempt to safeguard her son Randy (Josh Taylor) from potential repercussions, Davana Sealman enlisted Alex’s help to deal with Van Camp. This was because a video surfaced showing Randy sexually abusing Beatriz, and it wasn’t the first time he had exploited an underage, undocumented girl. Davana was trying to conceal her son’s actions.

Given the situation, it’s clear that Alex isn’t just pursuing revenge for Beatriz, but he’s also determined to prevent such mistreatments from recurring in the future.

Besides undergoing a sudden shift in perspective about his career, it’s also revealed that Alex, along with his brother, experienced sexual abuse at the hands of their father during their childhood years. This traumatic experience has driven him to seek retribution and strive to protect other children from enduring the same ordeal.

Currently, Agent Vincent Serra is making an effort to persuade his FBI superior, Gerald Nussbaum (Ray Fearon), that the recent murders they’re dealing with are linked to the human-trafficking case he’s been handling jointly with agent Linda Amisted (Taj Atwal). They also have a Mexican detective, Hugo Marquez (Harold Torres), assisting them as a consultant.

Following the elimination of Daniel De Bourg, who served as an intermediary for Davana, and the capture of Alex’s nemesis responsible for Beatriz’s death, Alex concludes that partnering with Agent Serrano would be a strategic move at this point.

He admits to the murders of Borden and Van Camp, also disclosing that there’s a powerful group of men in the city who have been unpunished for harming children. As Serra connects the dots — each death is linked to the ICE detention center where Beatriz was held a year ago. Van Camp was the manager and Randy is the proprietor.

From the evidence, Serra concludes that Randy will be Alex’s next victim, but it’s too past due for him to intervene and prevent it. At a party on his yacht, Alex ends up killing Davana’s son. In the end, Serra decides not to pursue Alex.

After taking a hard blow, Alex seeks refuge within the locked-up bakery belonging to his family. Through Linda Amisted’s detective work, we uncover details about his past – it appears that he may have murdered his abusive father, staged his own demise, and then relocated to Mexico.

Following an unsuccessful assassination attempt on Davana, Alex ends up in police custody and receives some rough treatment, resulting in him being hospitalized. While there, he confides in Serra that he possesses a flash drive containing proof of Davana’s illegal activities, but his memory loss due to advanced Alzheimer’s prevents him from recalling its location.

While things are unfolding, Davana coerces Dr. Meyers (Atanas Srebrev) into ending Alex’s life before he can reveal her secrets. But Alex overpowers him instead, taking him captive to escape the hospital and ask for a final talk with agent Serra.

Fortunately, Alex recalls something significant. He whispers to Serrra, “Perhaps they will execute you just to conceal this,” but as he utters the word “conceal”, a memory resurfaces. “Bery, spelled B-E-R-Y,” he clarifies. Moments later, Alex is gunned down by the police.

Following Alex’s passing, the FBI has marked the case as resolved, disregarding Serra’s objections. Nevertheless, in a final attempt to gather more evidence, Serra manages to uncover something potentially incriminating about Davana Sealman.

From an image taken during the investigation, Serra discerns that the sign outside Alex’s deserted bakery is damaged and reads merely ‘BERY’. This revelation clarifies for him the cryptic message Alex had been attempting to convey in the vehicle just prior to his demise.

Serra obtains a flash drive containing a conversation between Davana Sealman and Ellis Van Camp, then delivers it to the district attorney of El Paso. However, without Alex’s testimony, the evidence alone isn’t sufficient to convict her. Or as Alex suggested, she seems to have influence over many people, which could indicate a corrupt system.

As a gamer, I’m confident that justice will prevail in some form or fashion, just like it did in the game Memory. In the final act, my character, Agent Amisted, and Serra went out to celebrate, but little did we know that Detective Marquez, concealed behind a mask, was about to take a dark turn. He ended up murdering Davana Sealman, leaving a chilling mark on her throat.

Upon hearing the report of her death on the news, Serra recognizes that his partner has unwittingly provided him an effective alibi. If anyone were to question his innocence, he can show they found him in a public area with many witnesses and he purchased drinks using his credit card.

In response to Serra’s questioning, Amisted recites a prayer dedicated to Saint Ines, which detective Marquez had previously shown her during the film. Together, they resorted to seeking justice when the established system proved inadequate.

Memory is now available to watch on Netflix UK.
