In the Season 1 finale, abandoned by even his cardinals, Alexander meets King Charles with humility and saves his throne, even eliciting a confession from the conqueror he crowns as the new "King of France and Naples;" Della Rovere despairs as Charles abandons him; Lucrezia safely gives birth to a son in a convent as the Borgias secure an annulment of her marriage and plot revenge on their enemies.

The final episode of the first season was pretty well done by the creators. What amused me the most, however, was the Pope's total victory in the undeclared war against the college of cardinals, but the other events and conversations didn't cause me any significant disappointment, so it was a solid conclusion to the first season.
