With Killing Eve finally off to the races, a new Ghost victim lands on Eve's doorstep.

Helen: You know what they say. One cock-up looks like an accident; two cock-ups starts to look like carelessness.
Carolyn: Or a threesome.

Last week's episode felt a bit like the real beginning of the show's second season, with all old business from last season wrapped up, and Eve and Villanelle back to their regularly scheduled cat-and-mouse game. This week brings in a brand new angle as the unflappable Carolyn is finally seen from the non-power perspective when she goes to see her boss, Helen Jacobsen (Zoë Wanamaker). Konstantin her "Russian asset" going AWOL has upset the powers that be rather a lot, and Helen is screamingly angry about it, in between eating her crisps. Carolyn promises her this is all going to plan.
