In Episode 3 of the premiere, fans finally get the showdown they’ve been waiting for.

Instead of a deadly confrontation, the two women join forces against a corrupt FBI informant played by John Mulaney. Their unexpected alliance leads to a clever reversal, with Charlie and Beatrix exposing the mole’s scheme. In a surprising twist of fate, Beatrix decides to call off the hit she placed on Charlie, finally giving our favorite lie-detecting drifter a shot at peace—or at least fewer bullets to dodge.

It’s a high-stakes, character-driven episode that proves why the Poker Face mystery drama continues to raise the bar this season.

Rian Johnson, the mastermind behind the Peacock series, continues to deliver a stylized, noir-inspired mystery drama that’s both hilarious and heartfelt. With stops ranging from alligator farms to retail megastores, each episode offers a new crime and a fresh batch of guest stars.
