Killing Eve is finally back with a shocking and highly entertaining episode that sets the stage for a different yet eye catching journey for Villanelle and Eve. Until they find their way back to each other we’re breaking down some of our favorite moments. So, join us for 7 HUH moments from Killing Eve‘s “Slowly Slowly Catchy Monkey”!
1. That killing by Dasha.
Killing Eve sure knows how to start a season with a shocking killing via Dasha, Villanelle’s old trainer and one woman support team that believes she can make Villanelle the best. I would very much appreciate more flashbacks and moments where we see young Villanelle. Please?
2. That wedding ruined.
Not going to lie, I didn’t see Villanelle getting married coming. Sure, we all have known since the end of season one that Villanelle just wants someone to share her life with, but we didn’t think it’d ACTUALLY happen. And look at her now, getting married and tackling an intruding Dasha on her wedding day. Fairytale wedding for one, anyone?
3. That glow down by Eve.
This is Eve without Villanelle? I don’t like it. Not one bit. While Villanelle is out there getting married, Eve’s life has collapsed around her and she’s working a dead end job while living in a one bedroom apartment full of so much clutter and wine that I’m shocked she still has a place to sit amongst the rubbish. This down and out Eve is not the one I’m used to and I can’t wait for her to shake it off and get working.
4. That roach aka Konstantin.
Konstantin is like a roach. No matter what happens or what gets thrown at him, he survives. Hell, he thrives in chaos and trouble and I’m shocked that he’s back after what happened at the end of season 2. Where is his family? Why isn’t he with them? All these questions and more popped up when this roach made an appearance on Killing Eve.
5. That Paprika killing by Villanelle.
Villanelle is straight up savage in this killing. Not only did she set up her victim with a tragic tail of family woes, she used the ingredients in the shop to cover her dead body with it. Does the paprika have some sort of backstory besides being Dasha’s calling card? Is Villanelle keeping tabs on Dasha just in case she betrays her and Villanelle can pin these bodies on her? Questions upon questions!
6. That Niko update.
Honestly, who cares about Niko. Someone raise their hand. I’m waiting. No one? Just as I thought. Niko is an innocent victim of everything that has happened on Killing Eve. I’ll give him that. But in comparison to Eve and Villanelle he’s boring as plain ol’ white rice with no salt. Sucks that he’s locked away after the events of season 2. But again, who cares?
7. That death via Kenny.
Really? Out of everyone on this show…YOU HAD TO KILL KENNY! He was such a supportive, kind, and diligent person. Why kill him?! *deep sigh* I guess when we really think about it, the question is, “How didn’t he die sooner?” Because it’s helpful and kind characters like Kenny that bite the bullet and it seems like it’s finally Kenny’s turn. But without him, who has Eve’s back? No one?
Killing Eve airs Sundays at 9/8c on BBC America.
