Villanelle and Eve’s cat-and-mouse game continues in the third episode of the fourth season of Killing Eve, which aired on Sunday.
In the episode titled “Rainbow in Beige Boots,” Villanelle (Jodie Comer) seeks help from therapist Martin (Adil Akhtar) after a double murder in last week’s episode.
Tied to a garden chair and unsurprisingly dubious, Martin tells Villanelle that her desire to talk is a good sign, as the expert insists that real psychopaths don’t want to change their lifestyle.
