Does Fez Die in Season 2 of 'Euphoria'? What's Next for Him and Lexi?

Spoiler alert: This article contains spoilers for Season 2, Episode 6 of Euphoria.

Addiction, emotional manipulation, and grappling with one's parental legacy are recurring motifs in Season 2 of Euphoria. Season 2, Episode 6 plunges viewers into the aftermath of Rue's (Zendaya) relapse while also capturing Cassie's (Sydney Sweeney) breakdown, Nate's (Jacob Elordi) attempts to retrieve his father's disc, and the latest developments between Fez (Angus Cloud) and Lexi (Maude Apatow).

Fez and Lexi start talking in the Season 2 premiere of Euphoria. Their storyline, which provides viewers with a dose of hopefulness, highlights the sheer beauty of young love. In Season 2, Episode 2, Lexi visits Fez at his convenience store.

Things develop further in Season 2, Episode 6, with Fez and Lexi briefly hanging out and talking about Lexi's favorite movie, Stand by Me. Later in the episode, they share a little sing-along to the Ben E. King song of the same title. But things are about to take a turn for Fez.

As attentive viewers of Euphoria will recall, Fez's adopted brother, Ashtray (Javon Walton), killed Mouse (Meeko Gattuso) in the Season 2 premiere. Faye (Chloe Cherry) set up shop inside Fez's home after the altercation.

As Custer (Tyler Chase) tells Faye in Season 2, Episode 6, the police have accused the brothers of the murder of the drug dealer. Custer tells Faye he agreed to cooperate with the police, and urges her to stay out of the way as he tries to record Fez confessing to the murder.

The family business — the drug operation Fez inherited from his grandmother — could soon come under scrutiny. Fez's newfound happiness could quickly go down the drain.

In Season 2, Episode 7 of Euphoria, viewers watch Fez get dressed in a classic black suit as he prepares to head to Lexi's play. He even buys her a bouquet of roses, but for some reason, never makes it to East Highland High School. Why is that? Did something happen to our favorite character?

Well, while Lexi's play is happening, the camera cuts to scenes of Fez getting ready. Throughout the episode, viewers can't help but notice that the seat Lexi reserved for Fez is empty. He previously told Lexi that he wouldn't miss the production for the world, so clearly, something must have happened to him.

We know that Custer has been cooperating with the police to arrest Fez and Ashtray for the murder of Mouse, and the fact that Custer shows up at Fez's home unannounced seems to suggest that something bad is about to happen. Custer tells Faye to be chill, which leads us to believe that the police are on their way to raid the house.

When Fez announces he's heading to Lexi's play, the atmosphere in the house grows tense: Ash is onto Custer for his suspicious behavior, Faye looks like she wants to tell Fez something, and Custer looks like he's ready to see Fez go down.

So, it seems like Fez never leaves for the play. Whether that means Fez is dead or being detained by the police remains to be seen. Hopefully, our favorite character isn't gone for good.

Don't miss the Season 2 finale of Euphoria, Sunday, Feb. 27 at 9 p.m. EST on HBO and HBO Max.
