-->'''Eve:''' [[TitleDrop God, I'm tired.]] Aren't you tired?\\
'''Villanelle''' A little, yeah.

As Villanelle takes a hostage as a bargaining chip, Eve learns more about the larger conspiracy and remains determined to track down Villanelle.

!!Tropes in this episode:
* AlmostKiss: Villanelle comes close to kissing Eve on the bed but stops when she feels a knife pressed against her stomach.
* AmbiguousSituation: Is Eve genuinely considering having an affair with Villanelle, until she changes her mind and stabs her instead? Or is she merely faking to reciprocate Villanelle's feelings for her, so that Villanelle would let her guard down?
* BadassCreed: "Language is information, and information is everything." Villanelle and Irina both recite it rote, making it clear it's something Konstantin drilled into both of them.
* DialogueReversal: ''Sorry baby.''
* DrivenToSuicide: [[spoiler:Anna lacks the will to kill Villanelle, and [[BetterToDieThanBeKilled doesn't want to let Villanelle kill her]], and so she shoots herself instead.]]
* GainingTheWillToKill: Eve finally works up the nerve to stab Villanellle and regrets it almost immediately.
* LimaSyndrome: Villanelle comes to like Irina. But--given this is Villanelle--calling it "''empathy'' for her captive" is a bit of stretch.
* LodgedBladeRemoval: After stabbing her, Villanelle tells Eve not to pull the knife out but she does anyway. Effectively making her injury worst.
* ManlyTears: Konstantin tears up when he talks about his daughter, who he loves dearly and who has just been kidnapped.
* MoodWhiplash: The final scene. It goes from AlmostKiss to GainingTheWillToKill to MyGodWhatHaveIDone, all within moments.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Eve's reaction after stabbing Villanelle in her apartment. She is traumatized by it.
* ParentalFavoritism: When pressed to it, Konstantin says that--of his daughter Irina and his LikeADaughterToMe Villanelle--Villanelle is his favorite, "little bit." However, Irina is not TheUnFavourite--Konstantin still unquestionably loves her fiercely. Also it’s questionable how truthful this statement was, considering Villanelle had him (and Irina) at gunpoint when he said it.
* PhraseCatcher: Everyone who meets Irina agrees, "She is really annoying."
* ScareChord: Eve stabbing Villanelle is accompanied by a high-pitched screech in the soundtrack.
* SeasonFinale
* SpeakInUnison:
-->'''Irina:''' Did you two used to go out?
-->'''Villanelle & Anna:''' She seduced me. ''[Both look at each other and scoff.]''
* TooMuchInformation: Villanelle's confession to Eve.
-->'''Villanelle:''' I mean, I masturbate about you a lot.
-->'''Eve:''' Okay, that's--.
-->'''Villanelle:''' [[LampshadeHanging Too much?]]
-->'''Eve:''' No, it's just-- I wasn't expecting that.
* YouWouldntShootMe: Twice, in contrasting scenes, one with Anna and one with Eve
** Villanelle claims Anna can't do it. She's right.
--->'''Villanelle''': ''[to Irina]'' This is an example of someone who thinks they can shoot a gun ''but they can't''. You're safe.
** Villanelle claims Eve can't do it. She's wrong, and Eve ''does''. It's {{Zigzagg|ingTrope}}ed though--Eve instantly regrets it, but still, she ''did'' do it, and there's a lot of meaning in that.
--->'''Villanelle''': You can't.
--->'''Eve''': I can. ''[stabs]'' I can!
