After four fun-filled seasons, Netflix viewers are bidding farewell to the series On My Block, and no, I am not okay. Over the past four seasons, fans of the show got to tune in as Monsé, Ruby, Jamal, Cesar, Spooky, aka Oscar, and Jasmine made their way through high school in Freeridge, a fictional inner-city town in Los Angeles.

With life after high school quickly approaching, the crew of friends were in for a bittersweet journey. As they danced the night away at their senior prom, a life-changing event happened to one of the show's most beloved characters.

Ruby delivered a touching speech about his grandmother's legacy during a community memorial held in her honor. "To an old broad who was never really old. Who wanted to be celebrated and not mourned and who showed us all how to live," he said. "To Marisol. You will be missed."

After huddling up with his crew, Ruby revealed that Abuelita left them a map. The map's final destination was never revealed, but viewers could only assume that it would lead them to the infamous RollerWorld money.

More details on the map could possibly be discussed in the upcoming On My Block spin-off Freeridge.

Is Abuelita the only person that died this season?

Unfortunately, Abuelita isn't the only person who passed away this season.

Things took a turn for the worse as Oscar and his pregnant girlfriend Isabel prepared to move to Portland to begin a new life together. Cesar discovered Oscar lying on a doorstep after hearing gunshots and a car speeding away. Cesar held Oscar close as he gasped for air moments before he died from his fatal gunshot wounds.

Oscar's murderer remained a mystery throughout the rest of the season, but his gang affiliation seemed to be a leading reason why someone would want to harm him.

Season four of On My Block is available to stream on Netflix with subscriptions starting at $8.99 per month.
