Warning! SPOILERS about Mayor of Kingstown season 3, episode 1 ahead.
Summary
Milo’s fate inMayor of Kingstownseason 2’s finale was unclear but one season 3 premiere’s detail shone a light on what happened to the mobster. Taking advantage of the prison riots towards the end ofMayor of Kingstownseason 1 proved Milo’s cunning, as he helped start those only so that he could have a chance to escape from prison. His elaborate escape plan effectively worked, asin the aftermath of the prison riots, all authorities believed Milo dead as a result of the violence in the riots, making his official death his means of escape, despite being alive.
Hints that Milo could still be alive inMayor of Kingstownseason 3came from the deliberately muddy season 2’s finale, which placed him on the boat seconds before it exploded, but also showed Milo calling Tatiana and reassuring her that “everything went fine” moments later.Mayor of Kingstownalready proved Milo’s ability to plan intricate escapes but surviving such an explosion would have required massive planning and knowledge, at whichMayor of Kingstownseason 2 never hinted. Although the absence of Milo’s body makes his fate not sealed, one season 3 detail reveals Milo died and who killed him.
Konstantin Likely Killed Him With Tati’s Help Before Moving To Kingstown
Mayor of Kingstownseason 3’s premiere introduced at least two characters newto Kingstown, and one of them was behind the bomb placed on Milo’s boat at the end ofMayor of Kingstownseason 2’s finale. Konstantin was welcomed to Tatiana’s club inMayor of Kingstownseason 3, episode 1, and while her willingness to accept another leader already hinted at Milo’s possible demise, it was Tati’s sentence at the end of the episode that confirmed it.Just before Konstantin killed her in cold blood, Tati asked why he doubted her, pleading and admitting, at last, “I gave you Milo.”
Mayor Of Kingstown Recap: 10 Things To Remember Before Season 3
Mayor of Kingstown S2’s finale left many questions unanswered, making it imperative for some things to be remembered ahead of season 3’s release.
Tati’s admission completely changed the meaning behind Milo calling her atMayor of Kingstownseason 2’s end, as what could have been mistaken for her preoccupation was her wish to be sure betraying Milo had reaped its fruits. While Konstantin murdering her inMayor of Kingstownseason 3, episode 1 easily established him as a mobster with whom not to mess,it also showed his certainty Milo had died, as Konstantin took over his dealings right after Milo’s demise, killing Tati for betraying Milo, as that indicated she could have betrayed Konstantin too in the future.
Why Tatiana Turned Milo In
Knowing About Someone Else Searching For Milo Gave Her The Upper Hand
While Tati didn’t have a chance to explain why she betrayedMilo,Mayor of Kingstownseason 2, episode 10 already showed she knew more than she let on. When Mike went to ask her to set another meet-up between him and Milo,Tati suggested Mike should have just given Milo his money, as he wasn’t “the only one after him.”Konstantin’s arrival in Kingstown showed how much of a big deal he was as a Russian mobster, and if he had already been looking for Milo, being loyal to Milo would have resulted in Tati’s death anyway.
Tati’s betrayal of Milo thus proved more a matter of attempting self-preservation, as being under the protection of a mobster more powerful than Milo should have guaranteed her and her child’s survival. However, her secrecy while handling calls doomed her, effectively putting her in the same situation where she would have been had she stayed loyal to Milo inMayor of Kingstownseason 2, episode 10’s ending, and not disappeared as those loyal to Milo did before Konstantin’s arrival.
