Eve and Villanelle together, in the same room. Close. That gaze. That slight smile.

It's almost too good to be true.

Firstly, because it shows us that they are reunited, and that until now it was rather understood that the S4 would reproduce the pattern of the long separation and the explosive/surprising encounter.

Yet here KE offers us several angles of view where our two heroines are united. Already with "want a ride?"

Then now with "the fable of the scorpion and the frog". (And we all know there will be a scene on the boat, whatever that scene should be.)

Secondly because in two broadcasts, we see the same sequence, let's call it "psychoanalysis". There are therefore at least three people in the room: Martin, Vil and Eve.

Third, because obviously the power games have changed. Eve has gained confidence, Vil is "fragile" (she limps in the teaser, and she seems lost in therapy)

So what do we know about this season ?

- Villanelle will delve into religion

- She's going to do it to try some form of redemption

- She is no longer the all-powerful character

- She's going to be linked in one way or another with MI6

- Eve wants revenge on the twelve and make sense of everything that happened before

- Eve will find herself close to the Twelve, at least in contact with Hélène

- Eve has finally agreed to leave her life aside (her attitude in the clips / teaser / pictures, the disappearance of the wedding ring)

(- Carolyn is going to be kidnapped

- Konstantin is in danger)

So where is the Eve/Villanelle couple headed?

The last few seconds provided are interpretable in various ways.

Eve is in a strong position.

In this season...

...and in the next clip, even though she is behind Villanelle.

It's Vil who is the subject of therapy by Martin. In the first video she seems annoyed but sincere.

In the second, she seems pensive, then Eve asks her her question and she has a rather...fragile, delicate reaction.

The smile is not necessarily a real smile. It is light, does not rise up to her eyes. It may look like the smile in episode 2x5 in the kitchen, when Eve tells her that she hired her to kill her. There is a form of indulgence, remonstrance but tenderness in her reaction.

Here we don't know what surrounds this moment. So it's hard to know what this reaction means. But what is certain is that she reacts to Eve.

Next, the fable. What should we think of it?

The scorpion ends up stinging the frog, even though she helps it cross the river. Certain instincts, reactions, cannot be prevented. What does this mean for our heroines?

That they can't help but come back to each other despite the danger? (And that they do therapy to understand it, fight against it?)

That one will necessarily betray the other, even knowing that it will condemn it? (And in this case, it may be Eve, the scorpion of the story, relentless against the twelve, helped by Villanelle who puts her life in danger) Should we expect a refutation of the fable during the last episode?

What is Martin's role? Show them they're unhealthy for each other? Diagnose if Vil is a psychopath? If Eve has enough distance from Vil?

What is Eve's role? To serve as a safeguard to be heard by Villanelle?

What if Vil had been indoctrinated by a cult and MI6 (in the person of Carolyn) had come seeking Eve's help to get the ex-killer out of that church? And that the therapy was there to bring her back to her base instincts?

What if Villanelle was still going to be used as a tool, for or against the Twelve?...

some of my favorite villaneve coded poems and quotes

Barty: You know, I think we should try a non-violent approach to this.

Bellatrix: I agree. Except replace 'non' with 'extremely' and include the phrase 'bloody murder extraordinaire'.
