The Episode Review
Aubin Wise absolutely steals the show in this heart-wrenching episode as a distraught mother who would do anything to protect her son. Juliette’s and Calliope’s parting doesn’t land with the same emotional fervor (the blatant Romeo and Juliet parallelism and “love moderately” message don’t help things at all). But the new divide between them sets the series up beautifully for a second season that promises to be rife with drama. The season finale strongly drives home First Kill’s ultimate message. Some monsters hide in plain sight–whether or not they sport actual fangs. And some monsters aren’t really monsters at all.
