As a means of getting back at Laurie, Alamo sought to take something from her that would hurt.\u00a0According to Rue (<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" data-yga=\"{\" ylinkelement=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/people\/zendaya\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"elm:link;elmt:article_link;slk:Zendaya;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Zendaya<\/a>), that was her bird, Paladin.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">And so, Rue and Bishop showed up at Laurie\u2019s under the guise of purchasing drugs, but it\u2019s a cover to get into the building so Bishop can poison her beloved bird. The tension in the scene itself is so thick, you could cut it with a knife, particularly when it comes to Bishop\u2019s demeanor.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-0 size-full\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-3 right-3 rounded-full bg-primary p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-primary\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" class=\"flex-none size-4 -scale-x-100 text-primary lg:size-6 [&amp;_path]:fill-current\"><path fill=\"currentColor\" d=\"M3.1 3.1V11h1.8V6.314l5.392 5.393 1.415-1.414L6.313 4.9H11V3.1zm17.8 17.8V13h-1.8v4.686l-5.393-5.393-1.415 1.414 5.393 5.393H13v1.8z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed bottom-0 left-0 right-0 top-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-primary hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\">\n<p>Martha Kelly in &#8216;Euphoria&#8217; Season 3 <\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">HBO<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">While we\u2019ve gotten glimpses of him in the first couple of episodes, his emotionless approach makes us wonder if he\u2019s Season 3\u2019s true antagonist, to which Britt-Gibson notes, \u201cIt\u2019s such a fascinating character, sort of like the baked onion\u2026 slowly peeling back the layers of him, and you never know when you\u2019re gonna get to the center of it, and that\u2019s what makes it so interesting. It\u2019s unlike anything I\u2019ve ever done.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">As he\u2019s forced to put up with Laurie\u2019s racist cousins, Bishop asks Laurie if she named the bird after <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" data-yga=\"{\" ylinkelement=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/people\/richard-boone\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"elm:link;elmt:article_link;slk:Richard Boone;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Richard Boone<\/a>\u2018s character. She remarks that she\u2019s surprised her knows Westerns as a Black man, and he counters that it isn\u2019t a Black or white thing. When asked if he related to cowboys or Indians, Bishop stated Cowboy, just moments before he tossed a wad of cash toward Laurie and her cousins, shooting at the stack with a finger gun.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The moment is undoubtedly cool for his character, who calmly poisoned the bird moments before Laurie walked over (he even plucks a feather from the doomed pet to wear in his afro). \u201cI love that scene,\u201d Britt-Gibson shared. \u201cI love the way that Sam shot it.\u00a0 I love the tension that builds in that scene. I love the dynamic of the players within that scene. There are real stakes, but also there\u2019s this air of\u2026 the unknown exists heavily in that scene, and that\u2019s what I love about it,\u201d he continues. \u201cIt does set the stage, and I just think that it\u2019s, again, peeling back the layers of the onion. It\u2019s just the beginning.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">In other words, Bishop has only just lit a match, and Kelly seems to confirm this as she shares,\u00a0\u201cI think that Paladin was the closest thing to a real attachment that she\u2019s capable of. I think that humans are probably too complicated for Laurie because she\u2019s either a narcissist or a sociopath or both, but a pet like a bird doesn\u2019t ask really anything of you, and so there\u2019s no room for her to get mad or feel betrayed by the bird.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">As for what Paladin\u2019s loss, which occurs moments before the final credits for the episode play, does to Laurie, Kelly shares, \u201cShe is devastated by his loss, and I don\u2019t really think she ever recovers fully and ever feels like she\u2019s fully on her feet again.\u201d But rest assured, because no real animals were harmed in the making of this episode.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cIt was a fully animatronic robot, and when we were filming, it was late at night, and they had to keep moving the position to get it to fall in a way they wanted it to fall,\u201d Kelly recalls of filming Paladin\u2019s death scene. \u201cThe guys who made this robot and were operating it were amazing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Despite the very fake bird that died onscreen, Kelly was still impacted by Paladin\u2019s death as she reveals, \u201cWhen I watched the episode, when he dies, it made me really sad, even though I knew it was a robot, because I love that bird in real life, he\u2019s great.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Will a war break out, and what will it look like? Only time will tell, but after Rue is nabbed by authorities on the ride out of Laurie\u2019s, we can\u2019t help but feel like the situation is about to get even more intense if she\u2019s recruited to be an informant on these major drug players.
