As well as, potentially, the forever-beleaguered Abigail Hobbs. All of this was an elaborate dance concocted by Hannibal (and, apparently, DuMaurier) to snuff out Jack, Will and Alana. His fight with Jack had been teased since the premiere, but the extent of that fight, and how many others would become casualties, was a surprise. Though it was Will who seemed to be the one goaded towards violence and killing throughout the season, it was Hannibal who was covered in blood and ready to kill at every turn in this finale. ![]() In this hour, he chastised Will for thinking he could take his life, or his freedom. He did engage in hand-to-hand combat once or twice, but never to such a bloody end. Throughout the series, his violence, or capacity for violence, has only been hinted at. It was telling that "Mizumono" ended in such a feral way for Hannibal. And yet, the show often displays a cool aesthetic with its violence. No, wait - scratch "unbelievable." This is Hannibal.
