Now Season 3 saw Joe murdering love, faking his own death, dropping his son Henry off at
the neighbours and him travelling out to the city of Love to track down Marienne.
Unable to find her, loveable psychopath stalker Joe ended up travelling to London
after being told that she was at an art fair in our nations great capital.
Joe managed to track her down but after realising that she wants nothing to do with him he decides
to leave her alone. Her daughter is waiting for her back in Paris and she expects her back.
Marienne calls Joe a murderer and is sickened by the fact he killed Love and countless others.
He makes a promise to prove he's not that man and since then he's been going under the name
Johnathan More which was given to him by an assassin named Elliot. Hired by Loves
father he was sick of the constant death and he wanted to give Joe an out in the form of a
new identity. Marienne knows he's alive though and he has to kill her in order to make it so
that he can fully close the chapter on Joe...or was it...Will...anyway..unlike previous seasons,
Joe actually doesn't really do much murdering in this one and instead the
story centres around the eat the rich killer who is picking off his new circle of friends.
It's very much a You-Dunnit with us watching Joe being taunted by
the killer as he tries to unmask who they are.
Now in this end this is revealed to be Rhys Montrose, a man of the people
who in the end announces that he's running for Mayor. The clues are all there from the off
and in the first five minutes Joe is given his book titled Good Man in a cruel world.
At the dinner party in episode 2 Joe also looks about and wonders who the
killer could be and the first person who talks to him is of course Rhys.
something about him just doesn't add up
Rhys very much sees himself as someone who is making a change for the good by
stomping out inequality. I was lucky enough to see the season twice before
making this video and upon meeting him we get a chapter that chronicles his childhood.
Born into poverty and raised by a single mother he found out that he was the son
of a duke and this skyrocketed him into the 1% of the 1%. He's promised to clean things
up and he clearly finds common ground with Joe in the club they go to in episode 1.
He says that when you never had money and you eventually get it it never really feels like
you have it at all. Joe says that the rich feel like those born into wealth feel like a different
species and this clearly connects with Rhys who wants them to help out desperate people.
-
This idea of people being desperate is laced throughout the show and early on Joe saves
his colleague Malcolms girlfriend from some muggers. In his flat he thanks him whilst
spouting off a monologue about how people are trying to bring down the rich which very much
sets up the theme for the season. We see just how wicked, self centered and up their
own arses they are which is exemplified in one of the main antagonists Roald.
You actually don't mind that there's a killer taking them
down and I found myself hoping that roald...got steamroald....
buhhh.
Now Rhy is desperate for a team up with Joe after he learns who he is and he's
collected an orgy of evidence on all his past deeds. Joe is very much looked down
upon by the new group of friends that he's found himself amongst and I dunno why he's
not just like...."I can't be bothered with this." But bothered he is and he
finds himself going along to all sorts of events when trying to crack the case.
Now Rhys murders Malcolm and he leaves his body in Joes flat. Joe ends up having to dispose of
this and it inadvertedly throws him closer to Malcolms girlfriend Kate. She very much becomes
the trademarked You of the season and we'll talk about the role she could play in part 2.
Interestingly Marienne isn't in this part of the season all that much but I do think they're
gonna bring her back for the next one. However it is possible that Joe ends up flying back to
Paris so we can have a proper season there. Every season so far has taken place in a new
location and I was surprised that we didn't get this one there. I think things will come
full circle from last time with us heading out there for the final part or Season 5.
If he's in danger of being caught in england, knowing
Marienne is out there might seal the deal for him and he could end up returning there
to find her again. However there's also the possibility that the assassin finds
out she's still alive. Loves father would be furious that he's not actually killing
the people that he pays him for and he might travel out there to tie up the loose ends.
Elliot does seem like he's above it now and we do get a facetime scene
with him in episode 2 where he says he's beyond it now.
Anyway that takes us into theory time, theory time, theory time, theory time.
So Love's dad could find out from Elliot that Marienne is still
alive and he may hire someone new who doesn't mind getting their hands dirty.
Joe would want to save her because she's the
woman he loves and it would also provide the perfect opportunity for him to win her back
Now initially when she sees him she smile but then it probably dawns on her how
unlikely it is that he's randomly showed up in London at the same market she's at
and all the...well the murders. I think Joe thinks he can genuinely win her back though
and this coming together from the assassin plot point makes a lot of sense I think.
Joe going head to head with an assassin to save the person he loves would be a
new way to take the show and it would give Joe a reason to re-enter Mariennes life.
Now it all ramps up to a murder mystery weekend
out in the country side out at Wayne Manor from Batman 1989.
After recognising them gargoyles from the front gate in episode 4 I had to look it up and yes,
that is where Michael Keaton hung around at in the film.
Speaking of another movie, there's definite shades of Glass Onion here with the rich
a**hole motif of course carrying over from that too. Several real murders
happen and one gets pinned on Kate with Joe helping her to dispose of the body.
However, with no one else to really blame, Joe becomes the number one suspect and he's
hunted by Roald. Roald almost shoots him earlier and both these events are
actually foreshadowed early on when he brings up Dick Cheney.
-
Obsessed with Kate he's been looking for a reason to take
out the potential love interest and he attempts to kill him at several points.
After convincing everyone that Joe's the killer he chases him out into
the woods but the cunning fox gets the upperhand and manages to take him down.
At this point Rhys steps in and takes the pair to a dungeon located probably...probably left
of the bat cave. In more Batman similarities we get a moment akin to the Riddler wanting
to team up with Batman and it does give us some clues about what could happen next time.
Here he villain monologues and says that he has a plan to pin all the murders on Roald.
His original plan was to frame Joe for Malcolms murder and that kinda made him
realise that a dead person can't protest their innocence. Thus he wants Joe to kill
Roald to show his loyalty but he refuses to. Rhys sets the mansion on fire and says that
if Joe can escape and meet him in london that he'll reconsider letting him back in.
Joe not killing Roald could potentially show
he's changed and maybe...just maybe he isn't the bad guy Marienne thinks he is.
Spoiler alert he still is.
Anyway Joe saves Roald and the rest of the group finally accept he's not the killer.
Back in the capital Joe has an awkward exchange with Kate where he refuses to
go for a drink with her because it'll evolve into something more.
Now I think going forward both Rhys and Kate will become the main plot threads in part 2 that will
both intertwine with each other. Throughout the season we learn about Kates past and what happened
to her parents. Her mother was a supermodel called Greta Galvin who cracked up and attempted
to end her own life. Kate was shipped off to boarding school and this happened instead of
her father looking after her. We learn his name is Tom Lockwood and that he's one of the most
powerful men on the planet. Lockwood is known as an activist banker and he takes companies,
strips them for parts and screws over the workers so that they're left with nothing.
He sicks police on protestors, cleanses ceo records of sexual harrassment claims
and also gets wellwater reports signed that lead to childrne getting cancer.
Kate says he's the worst man alive and I think this clearly sets him up to be the
target that Rhys will wanna take out in part 2. Now kate wants him out as well and I think it
would be really interesting if Joe actually had to team up with Rhys to take him out.
However I think whats more likely is that he will stop him.
Whereas the previous seasons have closed out with Joe focusing on a new girl,
here we see him staring at Rhys on the tv screen saying that he will do anything to stop you.
No not you...Rhys.
-
Anyway I can see these three threads coming together and then possibly when
Joe has destroyed everything this side of the country like
a Liz Truss budget he can go to Paris on the search for Marienne.
I can see that being the logical conclusion of the entire thing and with Tom Lockwood
getting such a big mention I think he will be the perfect villain for part 2.
He might end up with Kate though and they do keep calling him Captain America
who of course ended up with British Peggy Carter.
Henry is also still out there too and Joe did promise at the start of
the season that he would go back to him. I'd love to see Season 5
potentially return to the states but I am getting a bit ahead of myself.
Now as for my thoughts on this one, I didn't really like the beginning of it
and it seemed like You just going through the motions again in a new city. However
I thought the eat the rich killer was a great change up and I really enjoyed
going through the mystery of who it was. They broke formula for once and instead
of making Joe the killer they got in someone for him to face off against.
There were some great inclusions here such as Sean Pertwee and seeing the
rich side crew just ham it up and be the worst people possible was a nice
way to get us on Rhys side. I actually see myself rooting for him more than
anything but obviously Joe doesn't see himself as being that sort of killer.
He won't even shoot a pheasant and ey...maybe he's changed.
Now I'm not gonna says the season was a 10.
im a ten
But I do think this is another ridiculously enjoyable ride even
if it does get off to a bit of a bumpy start.
I'm excited for part 2 and I'll drop my full score for the season when that's out.
At the moment it's probably clocking in around the 7 - 8 mark but yeah
I am excited to see where the stuff with Rhys and Kate goes.
