Who uses people now, Carolyn?

So why isnt anybody dying?
Everyone else was an official hit.
Thats a sad little list, when it comes to centrality to the plot and the element of surprise.
Watching her tolerate a misogynist American golfer felt turgid and rote rather than taut and thrilling.
Even the pivot to Dasha was rather expected.
Even when people die, its not anyone we care about it.
And when the deaths are someone important Carolyn, Niko, Konstantin they never quite stick.
At this rate, they might as well take Geraldine and either Bear or Jamie.
Hell, it seemed like she might take him back immediately.
Maybe asking for this from Geraldine is a tall order, but wheres the spy vs. spy energy?
Her line delivery was excellent: This place is amazing.
Look what someone just gave me!
Its a shank made out of a toothbrush.
Eves go at Dasha is yet another example of our MI6 agents descent toward the darkness.
It seems the harder it gets for Villanelle to kill, the easier its becoming for Eve.
Or at least, the closer she is to doing it again.
Increasingly, though, they seem suited to Eve, and something dark is calling to her.
Silent newcomer Rhian, on the other hand, has my interest.
Whats her status relative to Villanelle within the organization?
Perhaps Villanelles only moment of realism this episode?
Konstantin made an interesting choice to tell Eve where Villanelle was.
On the one hand, hes always playing both sides up the middle.
But as Carolyn warned, the hero only gets the girl in the movies.
Is Eve even the hero anymore?
