For better or worse, The Idol has nearly come to an end.

Max has now dropped the preview for the fifth and final episode of the season, which follows Jocelyn (Lily-Rose Depp) as she balances the demands of her tour with the growing influence of Tedros (The Weeknd) in her life.

Will she break free of him, though, or fall completely under his spell?

The Idol is streaming now on Max.
