In the Workin' Moms Season 6 finale, Anne finally has a moment of peace while out for a jog. She and Kate (Catherine Reitman) mutually agree to grow together on the phone, when someone drives up near Anne.

It's Heather. Kate keeps talking, unaware of the danger Anne is in on the other end of the line. Heather starts up her engine, Anne says, "No, please, no, no, no!"

The last thing Kate hears is the sound of a car crash. Did Heather run over Anne? Season 6 ends with that nail-biting cliffhanger, so Anne's fate isn't clear. Although Workin' Moms hasn't been officially renewed for a 7th season, apparently production is already in prep mode, per What's on Netflix.
