This is episode four of six in season two. The tension is already quite high, and if it's anything like season one, it will continue to ratchet up from this point on.

She is interrogated throughout the episode, and later on we find out she has killed almost 450 people!!

He refuses to help at first, being a goody two shoes and then is persuaded to change his mind when Harriet gets Mina's husband, Sami (Robe...
