The surprise ending of "The Cold Equations" is when Marilyn, the stowaway on the spaceship, is not allowed to board the rescue ship because it would exceed the weight limit. The protagonist, Barton, is forced to make the difficult decision to eject Marilyn into space to save the mission. This ending is surprising and tragic as it goes against the reader's expectation of a traditional happy resolution.
