In the Netflix action thriller ‘Trigger Warning‘, Jessica Alba plays the role of Parker – a competent Special Forces officer. Parker, a highly accomplished CIA military fighter and investigator, was on a mission in Syria with her companion Spider when she received a phone call from Jesse Swann, the sheriff of her hometown and previous boyfriend. Swann informed Parker that her father, Harry, passed away as a result of an accident that occurred in a mining operation.
Parker then acquires control of her father’s bar shortly after his death. She quickly finds herself at war with the vicious gang that is running wild in her hometown where she was raised. But the mystery remains, who killed her father? Here’s a deep dive into the thriller’s biggest question.

The Action-Packed Finale Of Netflix’s ‘Trigger Warning’
Very early on in ‘Trigger Warning‘, the Swann family, which consists of Senator Ezekiel Swann and his two sons Elvis and Jesse, who also happens to be Parker’s ex-boyfriend and is the sheriff of the town, is presented as a group of villains. Despite the fact that they are tied to Harry in certain ways, they are portrayed as a group of antagonists.
After an investigation into the problem, Parker comes to the conclusion that the cave-in was caused by a hand grenade. The recordings that were taken on the camera that was set at the entrance to the mine area, which subsequently turns out to be Elvis’s hidden lair, are reviewed by her, and she also notices that Elvis often visits the mine. Elvis gets caught in the act of stealing firearms from the army’s storehouse and exchanging them for cigars with his cronies Beck and Mickey, as the audience finds out during a scene.
Ezekiel and Jesse are both aware of Elvis’s new setup, which entails the performance of five role-playing games with a wanted terrorist who is only named Ghost. The movie does not depict them in full, but it does not mean that they are unaware of it. While Jesse, the sheriff, is under pressure to assist his brother, the remaining funds from the transaction are used to fund Ezekiel’s campaign for re-election.
It would seem that Harry made the decision to detonate his mine due to the fact that he became aware that Elvis was utilizing it for illegal weapons transactions. Moreover, Harry pulls the pin on the grenade at the same moment as he is dying, which causes the cave-in to occur despite the fact that Jesse is shooting him in the back.
Ghost, on the other hand, is adamant about participating in those same role-playing games; hence, he is the one who invades Creation and makes Elvis clean the mine in the expectation that Ghost would pay for the items. Parker, with the assistance of his buddy Mikey and Spider, a member of the Special Forces who is a militant, goes into the mine in an effort to halt everything.
As for the conclusion in ‘Trigger Warning‘, Spider makes a selfless sacrifice by detonating the mine in order to put an end to the terrorist operation for the last time. In addition, she is responsible for the deaths of Elvis and Ghost, the leaders of the terrorist organization, and the complex is destroyed by fire. As a result of the helpless feeling that he feels after murdering Harry, Jesse decides to bring a grenade that may potentially kill him with him and then shoot it up when Parker follows him down the mine to the army depot.
Although it is true that everything works out in the end, there is a question that may still be left unanswered: was it loyal to place Parker’s body back in the coffin while leaving the issue of whether or not he really did kill Ezekiel, which remains unanswered?

Did Parker Kill Ezekiel In ‘Trigger Warning’?
In reality, Parker is going to Ezekiel in order to find out the truth about the circumstances behind the murder of her father. Once she has this information, she will then confront the terrorists in the mine in a manner reminiscent of Rambo. Despite the fact that he continues to insist that he did not murder Harry, it is true that he did not eliminate him immediately.
When we move back from Parker getting ready for bed to what happens after that when he needs to get up and go to the mine, we are too distracted by what happens next. In contrast, the fate of Ezekiel is not revealed until the very end of Trigger Warning, when the only thing that Trigger Warning says to Mikey is that she “got him to talk.” This is similar to the state of affairs with Turing.
When the events of ‘Trigger Warning‘ that took place in the mine take place four weeks before the audience’s notice, a news broadcast taking place on the occasion of “the death of the now-disgraced Swann family” is supplied. However, it is likely that the commentators were using such statements in a metaphorical sense, but it seemed as if they were alluding to the fact that Jesse, Elvis, and Ezekiel are all tardy.
As a result of Parker’s lack of knowledge of Jesse’s actions and her continued conviction that Ezekiel was lying through his teeth, she had the ability to take his life in order to exact revenge for the loss of her father.
