EPISODE CONTEXT

Sitting at episode six of ten, this installment lands right in the season's second half where Wu Liuqi's pattern of botched assassinations begins carrying cumulative weight — each failed or compromised mission chips away at his assassin facade and builds toward the larger identity questions the finale will confront. It follows the comedic chaos of 'Killing a Domineering Grannie' and feeds directly into 'Killing Captain Jack,' continuing the season's episodic-yet-connected structure where standalone missions steadily reveal who Wu Liuqi really is beneath the amnesia.
