Meetings Need Biscuits saw Eve and Villanelle rekindle their relationship but this episode continues this season's attempt to rise beyond that.

For our review of the last episode of Killing Eve, click here.

Synopsis: Villanelle agrees to a job which will take her back to London; Carolyn’s Moscow contacts come in use when Eve and the Bitter Pill team unravel a potential lead to The Twelve; Konstantin finds himself under pressure from all sides. (IMDb)

Reunited and they feel so good. Meanwhile, Villanelle is great with babies.

Meeting Have Biscuits began with Villanelle (who can also play the piano) killing a woman by launching a pair of pliers into the back of her neck. When she thought she was done there, she heard a baby on a baby monitor. As she went to investigate, she found a housekeeper and had a little fun threatening to hurt her or the baby (while fascinated about why the housekeeper cared about the baby so much) before choosing the housekeeper. Meanwhile, the coroner’s findings seemed to indicate that Kenny’s death was indeed a suicide. The meeting between Carolyn, Eve, and Kenny’s boss Jamie (Danny Sapani) yielded nothing other than an argument between Jamie and Carolyn. They needed to work together.

Villanelle took the baby and had some fun with it until Dasha left it in a trash bin (it was later reunited with its father). Her next job was set to be in London. She was hesitant (for obvious reasons) until she was convinced to. Meanwhile, Eve and the Bitter Pill were looking into Kenny’s work and found that one of the twelve’s Geneva bank accounts was active but was recently depleted and needed help from Carolyn’s right hand man Mo (Raj Bajaj) to find the owner of the account. Konstantin was already meeting with him, a man named Charles Kruger, but he didn’t take the money and needed help from him to find it.

In London, Villanelle wanted a very distinctive perfume (so Eve would recognize her). She then looked uncomfortable in a stuffed animal store, recording a message for a talking bear for Eve. Meanwhile, Carolyn went out on a date where she was stood up but ran into an old friend. The next morning, Eve and Mo found her with a hangover. They now found Kruger, also a former acquaintance of Carolyn. Niko also left for Poland without telling Eve. She took her feeling to the bus which also saw Villanelle appear. Eve was not happy to see her as things got physical (she liked her perfume and kissed her). Those feelings between them were still strong, leading Villanelle to suddenly get off.

Carolyn and Mo and Villanelle both set their sights on Kruger. While the former got to him first, the latter (impersonating police) wasn’t too far behind. Eve tried to warn them though Villanelle caught up with them and fired onto the car. It looked like Carolyn didn’t survive but she did unlike Kruger. The incident barely registered with Carolyn. Later on, Konstantin found Villanelle in his bed (she wondered what she looked like as a baby and wanted to find her parents).

The episode ended with Eve finding the bear Villanelle had left for her. She kept the recorder because they miss each other because of course they do.

So Eve and Villanelle are back together for now but something feels different this time around. While the relationship that started the series can’t be forgotten, it has to be more than that not and that is definitely promising so far.
