[Ending] Verbal retrieves his personal effects (a gold watch, gold lighter and pack of cigarettes) from the property officer, as Kujan, relaxing in Rabin’s office, realizes with a shock that details and names from Verbal’s story are culled from various objects around the room - including Rabin’s crowded bulletin board and the “Kobayashi Porcelain Company” logo on the bottom of his coffee cup. Kujan realizes that most of Verbal’s story was improvised for his benefit and chases after him, running past a fax machine as it receives the police artist’s impression of Keyser Söze’s face, which resembles not Keaton, but Verbal.
Meanwhile, Verbal walks away from the police station, dropping his feigned cerebral palsy. He gets into a waiting car driven by “Mr. Kobayashi”, pulling away just as Kujan comes outside, searching in vain. The movie closes with Verbal reiterating his quote from Charles Baudelaire: “The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn’t exist”. This is followed by his earlier description of Keyser Söze: “And like that, he’s gone”. (Wikipedia)
