It's safe to say that I do agree with most of the critic that came this seasons way. They pushed too many (also non necessary) storylines and side characters forward with the almost lazy reasoning to develop the main cast further. While I do agree that this resulted in a weaker season in those aspects, I do not agree with people thinking that the growth of Villanelle's and Eve's character or the changing dynamic between them is out of place given S1 and S2s storytelling. I mean what do you want to see? The cat and mouse game can only go on for so long (literally two seasons) before it grows stale and frankly unrealistic. These characters needed to come together at one point, nothing else would have made sense. Villanelle is the only person who can understand Eve's darkness (which was teased in previous seasons already) and Eve can only understand, that there is more behind Villanelle than just a cold blooded killer. This episode did a great job portraying that and built a great foundation for Season 4.
