What About Ashtray?
In the final episode of season 2 of Euphoria, Ashtray was shot in the head and killed by one of the cops who raided the home that he and Fez share.
Just before that, his (Ashtray’s) reckless stabbing of Custer in the throat had led to the latter’s mouth being covered by Fez to prevent him from drawing any form of attention with his screams.
After suffocating Custer with his hands and watching him bleed out, Fez asked Ashtray to run away so he could take the fall for that murder. Ashtray refused and instead locked himself in the bathroom. When the cops came, he fired at them from behind the door. They also fired back and it was during this firing that he died.
