\n\u00a0<\/p>\n If you\u2019re still reading beyond this point, know that there\u2019s been plenty of time to watch the episode, so if it\u2019s spoiled for you – that is on you. Alright, now that we\u2019ve got that out the way, let\u2019s get into the Season 3 premiere of\u00a0Mayor of Kingstown<\/b>. The episode, Soldier’s Heart<\/b>, opens with a scene from the cemetery and I did not like where this was headed. There were two thoughts that came to mind of whose funeral was taking place: Robert or Miriam McLusky. Being that we see Robert, bruised, bloody, and yet very much alive, I knew that it was in fact Miriam who died. It was a heartbreaking scene to watch as Tracy, Kyle, and Mike pour dirt on the casket as it was being lowered.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/p>\n “Soldier’s Heart” – MAYOR OF KINGSTOWN.

Thankfully, no other funerals needed to be planned (too soon, I’m sorry<\/i>). The bomb, <\/span>homemade with a remote detonator,<\/span> was planted in a trash can close to where all the cars were parked. Who, in their right mind, tries to bomb a funeral service?<\/i>\u00a0<\/span>Ian, after debriefing with Mike, Kyle, and others, suggests they do something about the bombing, but Mike says he needs an hour to find a bullseye (another target). He goes to visit Bunny asking him if he knows anything about the bombing and the disrespect was felt. Bunny says he knows better than to go after family. Redirecting the conversation, Mike tells Bunny that this attack may have been for Bunny and he needs to give him someone or something else in order to get this target off him.<\/span><\/p>\n “Soldier’s Heart” – MAYOR OF KINGSTOWN.

They\u2019re all confused but Robert is all business. Mike suggests they make the Aryans the target; he pleads his case and despite Ian telling him there may be repercussions from this, he refuses to back down. Does this man not know fear? (<\/span>I\u2019m kidding he clearly doesn\u2019t<\/i>) <\/span><\/p>\n The team prepares to hit the Aryans and as prepared as they were, it wasn\u2019t looking good for them. Robert sees this and takes the opportunity to take matters into his own hands (while still recovering from his injuries I should add<\/i>) and he blows the Aryans up. Holy smokes (no pun intended) that was intense to watch; Robert gets the job done, but Mike wasn\u2019t impressed.\u00a0This isn’t how he wanted it to go down, but Robert sees it as a win\/win. <\/span><\/p>\n After all that goes down, Evelyn calls Mike for a meeting and it isn\u2019t a friendly one. She tells him she is not here for the games and if his name comes up in any investigation, she will not hesitate to arrest him. <\/span>You\u2019d think something like that would shake Mike up, but no. He deflects the entire time and makes a joke of it. Again, does this man not know fear?<\/span><\/p>\n “Soldier’s Heart” – MAYOR OF KINGSTOWN.

And Kyle, like most men new to this, is scared out of his mind (he didn\u2019t even know where the hospital bag was<\/i>). Admittedly, I laughed at this scene because Kyle was all over the place and I thoroughly enjoyed how he went through all the emotions before his talk with Mike calmed him down. Mike tells him something their mom once said: \u201cParenting is scary as f*ck\u201d. They both shared a laugh with this one.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n <\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/img\/b\/R29vZ2xl\/AVvXsEg0-ifPfUM2dJgfNk9oeWd4aQgJLcCSK4pugFXLJO9gmxZXYdWYjYew82S2b3B9ToEDAr5c-3-IbSdgP3CgAApgIBH5kWj8wPWv17nSJqioML9V9dHKD0bbMyanQhLHGfKFzX1JZOaW1W_gDyLs-BD7CRl-OGmZCSWldi2CP_hyphenhyphenJknt_RYuBBr-Vg\/s8142\/MOK_301_DM_0122_0764_RT.jpg\")

<\/span><\/span>Tatiana has gotten herself into some hot waters with Konstantin it seems. I mean, was Tatiana even thinking of the baby? I could tell something was up with her, but the way she tried to convince Konstantin to trust her and that she was \u201cloyal\u201d to him was a major failure and well, we see how that ended.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
