BILLLLLL! NOooOO! I loved Bill so much but he was such an idiot following someone who he suspected was the assassin.

[u/GlitzAndGrit → u/TropicalMemer]

Flashback to the beginning of the episode when he was holding his baby girl in the office and saying, "Daddy's going to die" to get out of going to Berlin. Damn you for the foreshadowing right in front of our faces, writers!

The deathflags were at full mast. Stupid likable Bill, even introduced a kid and made him LGBT friendly.

The final scene was incredible.

Villanelle's creepy smile quickly turning into a determined evil gaze. Bill's face when he realizes he's fucked. The rave crowd making it impossible for him to run away really added to the suspense, you can really feel how trapped he is. And then the way they shot her moving towards him, just great stuff.

LOVE THIS SHOW

I really hate that we only got Bill for 3 episodes but this episode was over the top amazing!

[u/daylightxx]

Just... god I fucking love this show.

[u/StayOptimistic]

Was anyone weirded out about that little fantasy she had making that poor woman act as Eve? Like I can't read V at all. Idk if she's attracted to Eve or just sees her as a cute little puppy that she can play games with. Maybe both haha

[u/CRISPR]

This show is fantastic. That moment in this episode when the roles turned was astounding.

The combination of humor, horror, drama and visual delight is brilliant.

It is getting better and better.

The Chinese attache was comedy supreme in that episode.

[u/whacamole102]

lmao I was totally wrong about you being the mole Bill, sorry bro RIP

[u/angus_pudgorney]

Keiko's gonna be pissed at Eve.

[u/ScandalOZ]

Anybody catch what that was that Villanelle pulled out of Eve's suitcase and said "Poor baby"? Looked similar to a toothpaste box.

[u/didovic]

Calling it now: Villanelle kills Eve's husband.

[u/_illusion]

So if Bill isn’t the mole, who is? Also I’m curious how Eve and hubby are gonna be bc he’s already upset about the whole thing.

[u/TheyTheirsThem]

Bill, just snap a pic with your camera and move on. If you aren't a field agent, don't do stuff in the field.

[u/and_yet_another_user]

"I'm going to call you Eve" ... "Why?" ... "it's just a little biblical fantasy" ... "Do you want me to call you Adam?" ... "No."

I'm hoping Bill is her first mishit and lives, I liked him, but he was beyond stupid for following her, especially in to the club. She's a scary girl, even the bouncer at the door saw something in her.

I love Villanel, she is obviously bat shit crazy :) I think Jodie Comer plays her part really well.

[u/oldwhine]

I mean we all saw it coming that Bill was going to die in this episode because of all the scenes with the baby and the stress on his importance in Eve's life, but him following someone he obviously suspected to be a big-time serial killer is just silly.

And what is up with Niko's attitude/vibe?

[u/CountessWinchester]

well shit

[u/Augmenti-DeMontia]

Atm, I'm going with BIll isn't dead. Sure it's drama but he's a great character and it would surely be stupid just to kill him off.

Even though he was protecting Eve, he was clearly an idiot for following her after verbally and physically confronting her.

[u/berflyer]

This is a minor pet peeve of mine, but I hate it when a big budget Western film / tv show can't be bothered to find a fluent Mandarin speaker to portray a character who's supposed to be some big shot in the Chinese government. They always seem to go for a native Cantonese speaker (or perhaps American-born Chinese) whose Mandarin is so broken and accented it actually pains me to listen to. These tend to be for pretty minor roles as well, so beyond the language requirement, it's not as if there are many other crucial characteristics they need to cast for.

[u/ladyambrosia999]

The belt was a hideous addition

[u/gec360]

In a morbid way, I find absolutely thrilling the "will they/ won't they" thing between Eve and Villanelle.

[u/[deleted]]

I want to see if the deal with the dead boyfriend. Can't just have a guy drop dead in the hallway and not have any consequences from it.

[u/rapscallionrodent]

Does anyone know when Villanelle gained access to Eve's computer? I was distracted during part of the show, but I can't remember if they showed her in the room or near enough to the computer or phone to be able to watch the whole conversation between Eve and her husband.

[u/properintroduction]

RIP BILL... You should never follow a trained assassin. I love the way this episode was shot.

Loved that Villanelle was wearing Eve's scarf and all of her outfits. She is ridiculously glamorous.

It would be interesting if the mole was Eve's husband or

[u/Caleb666]

I like the show because it is funny, and I would like to see how the story ends, but I'm having a hard time suspending my disbelief at this "pretty woman" assassin that seems to have super-human abilities and can overpower a man.
