Really like the storytelling structure in this episode (tell by characters, rather than timeline). Some of the small stories' timelines end up together (like the ones of V and K). Didn't expect Niko would be killed by Dasha (Dasha said "kill Polaski" was actually "kill Niko Polaski" not "kill Eve Polaski". Sandra Oh did a quite good job in her performance (especially when Niko was killed in front of her). BRAVO! Cannot wait to see episode 5!

Half way through the third series. I think there is a lot of catching up to do plot wise.

In this episode, there is a narrative shift as you have individual chapters for each characters.

The series is still jaunting all over Europe. Konstantin seems to be transporting everywhere. He is in Russia with his daughter one minute then with Villanelle in Barcelona.

The best part in this narrative is Niko and Dasha and how both of them collide for a shocking climax.

Eve's marriage is over. Niko moved to Poland to live a simple life delivering bread to his neighbours. Niko ignores all the texts from Eve. Until one text lures Eve to Poland and to go and see Niko. It is a plan crafted by Dasha.

Hopefully this will move on the story between Eve and Villanelle. I still think the arc for the third series is still not enticing enough.

What is with this season? We jumped around all over the place one second we were in Moscow then in London then in Barcelona then back in London then to Poland then to London all the while no one explaining why it how they're moving around so quickly. We see one scene Carolyn stating how the accountant was super broke but then we flick to his window living in their massive holiday mansion (so they're second house). All of sudden Eve is on a sofa in the office and no longer has her flat? I don't even know what happened to her house from seasons 1-2. This episode was a mess. Two good concepts was the tiptoe through the tulips and Nico dying but both were executed appalling. And for the love of god can we please get rid of the sister, why is she here? She came out of nowhere and adds nothing, they should have kept Kenny in as his character was developed and suited the story that was already there. Please stop ruining this show. The people who are liking this season, I don't think appreciate what made killing eve good. Also the exact same lines from other episodes "but I don't want to be free..." that just shows how lazy this writing is. All the characters are acting out of character as well. Urggghhh. Like why does Villanelle all of sudden care about a promotion? Why is Eve such a bland character now? Please can they stop intoducing new characters and develop the ones they already have. Stop rushing the writing. Also why did the location titles just change to people's name? It was unnecessary and ruined the feel of the show, like if it said Poland we would have known oh ok we're following Nico. I just want to wipe this season from my memory.

Oh, how quickly this show has jumped the shark. From the S03E01 killing of Kenny to this episode where nothing happens until the last 60 seconds, and yet again a character dies - which is meant to be shocking, but is actually repetitive. There's no storyline anymore, I'm no longer caring about the (remaining) characters, and I'm not sure if I want to bother watching the remaining episodes of the season. Such a shame, season one was original and funny, and now it's just a mess.

The new writers seem to know less than nothing abt the characters. Eve doesn't seem to be curious or interested or have any emotions at all. She saw Kenny being thrown off the building.. yet did nothing abt it. Next her husband gets murdered IN FRONT OF HER EYES by someone just feet away and....Nope.. not gonna run to him.. not gonna try to stop the bleeding.. do something!! She just lets the killer walk away. Good for her. And Dasha? killing Niko when Eve is abt 10 yards away? What was she thinking? "That's okay.. I'll outrun her"??? Do the writers think that putting events out of order will make it"clever" and justifies ignoring everything else? Literally a WTF episode.

I'm trying not to forget that this show once was Emmy-nomination worthy. So, while the show in general is still somewhat "okay", this episode saw an all time low with the killing of Niko. The tv trope of killing the spouse to further/alter the main character's side relationship is one of the poorest choices in writting, how uncreative! I'm so very rarely critical of the shows I watch but this episode moved me the wrong way, how could the current writter cloud all the effort, the development Phoebe created without pulling a move like this. Now don't think for one second that was a "plot twist" meant to keep them apart, we know whats coming since this season is getting generic, or at least it's writting is.

This is something terrible. I loved this series, considered it one of the best. But now he gets a -1 star to go into the eternal minus. If Shannon Murphy doesn't fix it, he will be damned, trouble is definitely waiting for him. The murder of Nico is not excusable, because there are limits to black humor. If you make the series so real and realistic, then you have to answer. There have already been precedents and more than once. We are waiting for your apology.
