Ending Explained

In the final act of the movie, the protagonists, Agent J and Agent K, confront the main antagonist, an alien bug in disguise, who is attempting to escape Earth with a tiny galaxy that holds immense power. The galaxy is hidden inside a small orb on a cat's collar, which the bug has stolen. The climax unfolds at the observation towers of the New York State Pavilion, where the bug plans to use a spaceship to leave the planet. Agent K allows himself to be swallowed by the bug to retrieve his weapon, while Agent J distracts the creature by taunting it, buying time for K to execute his plan. K manages to blast his way out from inside the bug, causing it to regurgitate him and the galaxy. As the bug attempts one final attack, it is obliterated by Laurel, a morgue worker who had been caught up in the events, using J's discarded weapon. The resolution sees K revealing his desire to retire, having trained J as his replacement. He requests J to erase his memories, allowing him to return to a normal life. The film concludes with J taking on the role of a seasoned agent, paired with Laurel, who has become his new partner. This ending signifies the passing of the torch and the continuation of the agency's mission to protect Earth from extraterrestrial threats.
