Stop me if you’ve heard this description of
Kevin Can F K Himself’s eponymous character before: “He’s awful, it might seem like he’s an idiot…but he’s also manipulative, and an asshole.” Allison says it at the top of the hour in episode six, communicating to Nick her reasons for wanting her husband dead. Over its first five outings, the AMC drama has built on this integral postulation about Kevin so much that hearing Allison say it yet again might feel repetitive. Well, fret not. “The Grand Victorian” takes the opportunity to display that we’ve just scratched the surface of Kevin’s ego and hypocrisy. With Patty in the loop, both women offer $7000 to Nick to kill Kevin, along with a prescription bottle of Oxy as down payment. He readily accepts but not without yelling at Allison to “shut up!” a few times, a moment that comes full circle by the end.
