Confused!

Warning: Spoilers
First of all I have to say that I did enjoy this episode. although I found it confusing at the end to find that our heroine stabs her evil counterpart while in bed with her. Is that some kind of lesbian metaphor? I don't really know nor do I care to analyze it but it does seem out of place in this cop chases criminal to The bitter end, ala "The French connection". Okay maybe I have my movies mixed up but if you've seen this episode you kind of get my drift. I think Eve should have broke down and cried after stabbing Villanueva, as people often do after the end of very emotional case or chase in this case. There's something wrong about that last part of the episode that does not bode well. Perhaps it was because it was too serious or perhaps it was the dialog sounded a little too confusing for two enemies to say to each other after coming face-to-face with each other. The poor dialogue, I guess it is what it is, reminds me more of a bad comic book then I'm a TV show or a serious movie or reality for that matter. I can't quite wrap my head around the fact that this show does not stay with either serious or comedy but tries to mix it up in a twisted way. I did enjoy the bad character escaping therefore saying "come back and see us next season".
