Summary The shocking ending of Saltburn reveals the true intentions behind Oliver Quick's obsession with Felix Catton and the luxurious Saltburn estate. Ollie is introduced as a lonely outcast at the prestigious Oxford University who becomes unlikely friends with the larger-than-life Felix and his socially elite friends.

Venetia is later found in a Saltburn bathtub filled with her own blood. James, distraught and perplexed by the back-to-back deaths of his two children and the ostracization of his symbolic third child Farleigh, pays Ollie off to leave Saltburn once and for all, disturbed by his presence there and Elspeth's growing attachment.

This is one of the most telling scenes - especially after the audience is made aware that Ollie killed Felix. The intensity of the grief and the love that he feels for Felix is shown to be very real, suggesting that his original plan was never to take Saltburn, but to form a bond with Felix. This starts to shift over his time at the estate, and his rage and hatred of Felix grows as he is marked as an outsider and as Felix cuts him out, but his original feelings remain.

It also reveals how he killed the rest of the family to take Saltburn and everything they had - but it leaves two character endings vague: James' and Farleigh's. James is, of course, dead, but the manner of his death is unclear.
