This week, a hitman kills and impersonates Todd (Justin Theroux), a guest at the garish wedding of Kirby (Haley Joel Osment) and Victoria (Emma Pfitzer Price), where his true target will be the groom, who is the son of Beatrix Hasp (Rhea Perlman).
Charlie and Alex (Patti Harrison) attend as oyster shuckers, catering to the guests in old-timey uniforms, but are surprised to see Agent Luca Clark (Simon Helberg) in the back row with a camera, live-streaming the event to Hasp’s witness protection location. Agents Milligan (Taylor Schilling) and Darville (Lili Taylor) are sceptical of Clark’s methods, but when Kirby is killed, word of the Iguana’s involvement spreads.
This episode was directed by Ti West. The writer was Andrew Sodroski.
