Chromosomes chill out and unwind, two nuclei pop up, and the cell is almost ready to finish mitosis.
I've seen it in action during my lab days: telophase is textbook mitosis completion! Chromosomes at the poles, nuclear envelopes reforming, and you know cytokinesis is up next.
In telophase of mitosis, the magic happens! The chromosomes reach opposite ends of the cell and begin to de-condense back into chromatin. Meanwhile, the nuclear membranes start to re-form around each set of chromosomes, creating two nuclei. It's like the cell is getting ready for a grand finale before fully splitting apart!
Ah, telophase... it's when the cell starts tidying up after the gene dance party, with nuclear envelopes forming around chromosome clusters!
