'The Curse' Finale: Asher's Surreal Exit and Whitney's New Beginning

In a baffling finale, Asher is sucked into the stratosphere as Whitney gives birth, marking the end of their tumultuous relationship and the beginning of Whitney's independent journey.

In the finale of 'The Curse', Asher (Nathan Fielder) wakes up on the ceiling due to a differential in thermal pressure in their eco-friendly home as his wife, Whitney (Emma Stone), goes into labor. Asher is eventually sucked up into the stratosphere in the fetal position, while Whitney gives birth to their son.
The series finale has been interpreted as the titular curse finally catching up with Asher. Whether he is the curse or the curse was cast upon him, transcendent forces ultimately work to evict Asher — not just from his home, but from the planet itself.
The finale is more concerned with Whitney than her high-flying husband. She’s been telling us what we need to know all along, often without saying a word, and her clarifying expressions, manifested so perfectly by Emma Stone, bookend the series in a way that sheds light on the story’s meaning.
The baby can be Whitney's new male companion, share the screen with her in 'Green Queen' Season 2, and grow up to become a 'better' version of Asher — one raised by Whitney, instead of infatuated with her.
Whitney leaned on Asher throughout 'The Curse', but whether she ever needed him is debatable. She had the money from her mom and dad. She had the experience in real estate. She had the passive home designs, and she’s the only one who can properly host an HGTV show. Now, she sees that she can have all that without him. And she’s never been happier.
