We are back from our brief intermission and find Joe … basically right where we left him.
The police think Joe is a hero because he saved Roald.
Which is weird, no?
I mean, sure, sexism, duh, but isnt Kate already famous?
Wouldnt it make more sense for the media to latch on toherinvolvement and not get so stoked about Joe?
How does he have the money to get it set?
Joe is impressed that Rhys is running for mayor while serial killing.
Who says men cant multitask?
Like, is Rhys evenreal??
Rhys says he wants a FRIEND.
(Couldnt he have just paid them off?
Seems like it wouldve been a lot less trouble!)
I mean … sure?
Is this thrilling anybody?
I feel like this would have a lot morepopif Rhys werent some random guy we met five episodes ago.
Or Mr. Moody, the bookstore guy??
But back to our program.
Though Kate emphatically didnotinvite Joe, hell be there at Phoebes insistence.
Phoebe assures Joe that shes never seen Kate so smitten with anyone as she is with him.
With great chemistry, all you need is, like, eye contact!)
Phoebe also tells Joe about her fears that shes being followed.
We already know Blessings entire personality is that she runs pyramid schemes!
Cut the filler and stop making these episodes 50 minutes long!
Joe manages to convince himself that framing Connie would actuallyhelpthis addict recover when you really think about it.
This time its Simons ear.
Joe needs to plant this ear on someone TONIGHT, or its on you tomorrow.
I wonder why exactly planting the evidence is even Joes problem.
I love that Nadias reaction to seeing Joe at this event is to blurt out, Im confused.
Nadia wants a selfie with Lady Phoebe ironically, which feels very out of character.
I get that she needs to want this for plot reasons, but it lands so awkwardly.
Kate moseys over to Joe to accuse him of sending her mixed messages.
Joe cant have this conversation right now because he needs to leave a severed ear in Connies pocket.
Except he cant do that because surprise!
Joe is struck with late-onset conscience and cannot frame this soon-to-be-saved young man.
So Joe is still stuck with the ear.
Nadia observes their suspiciously swift entrance into an elevator.
While Phoebe lives out her nightmare, Niko buys Simons entire art collection.
He swears hell be loaning most of them to the National Gallery of Athens.
Honestly, great pitch.
She agrees to a tryst the following night.
Dawn has a giant knife, so, its not an ideal situation.
Joe knocks on the door (he is unarmed??
For some dumb reason???
I scream to myself:Joe, drop a PIN or TEXT somebody for the LOVE of GOD.
Instead, he just goes inside and locks the door behind him.
During this scuffle, Joe slips the ear into Dawns backpack.
But Nadia is starting to wonder about him, and I am rooting for her!
Joe has some long game to expose Rhys as the real killer and ultimately exonerate Dawn.
Buddy, SAVE HER DADS NUMBER UNDER A CODE NAME.
Joe observes all this through the window because Kate never closes her curtains.
After Kate throws Niko out, Joe goes over.
Joe tells Kate that shes not crazy; thereissomething between them.
He explains that they cannot be together because, uhh, My past is not great.
She says that shealsohas a past.
Joe is thrilled, and they finally kiss for real.
But Joe still doesnt spend the night for some reason.
When Joe gets home, Rhys is already there.
