'Baptiste' Season 1 Episode 3 Recap: "For Blood"

'Baptiste' Season 1 Episode 3 Recap: "For Blood"

At the end of last week's Baptiste, it seemed like both Julien and Celia were in for it, with one trapped in a basement with Stratton and the other about to be a victim of Constantine. Naturally, the cold open leaves both these cliffhangers to wait to neither of these and instead introduces Genevieve (Jessica Raine), the other much-ballyhooed guest star this season. She's a detective with Europol in the UK, on the hunt for Constantine.

Constantine: You should know this. I like my job.

Back at Stratton's house, Baptiste is not dead, and he's finally admitting the truth. He became obsessed with Natalie because she looked like Lucy. Stratton claims they never slept together. "It's pathetic, isn't it," he asks. (More like super creepy, but sure. Let's be nice, I guess.) Natalie told him about Cristina, her sister who'd been kidnapped, and then sprung an idea on him. She overheard the Brigada Serbilu planning to move a million euros on some deal. He could steal the money for her, and Natalie could buy back her sister. Stratton, smitten, does as she asks, but without a mask. (The money is the gym bag from the tulip farmer, in case it wasn't obvious.)
