Hannibal takes a beating as the doctors many avengers descend on Florence.
She tells Will of her upbringing with Hannibal in a rare scene of heavy exposition for this show.
Intonightsepisode, Pazzi became Hannibals latest victim, an act of violence he wanders so frustratingly into.
Like Chiyoh, Pazzi is more fascinating for his connection to Hannibals past than in his own right.
Unfortunately, that past connection doesnt stop Pazzi from trying to out-game Hannibal.
Seeing Pazzi go for that fingerprint was like watching a zebra wander into a lions den.
Extra points to Alana for immediately knowing that this wouldnt end well.
Was she calling Pazzi to warn him off of Hannibal or did she have an ulterior motive?
Could she somehow be aligned with Jack?
This is a whole new bone-marrow-in-the-bloodstream Alana, so who knows?
Can we pause for a moment here to talk about how beautiful this moment wa shot?
Even in death, Bellas presence is a light in Jacks life.

But Jack isnt just in Florence to say goodbye to Bella.
Unlike Pazzi, Jack resists scheming or trying to manipulate.
As he tells Pazzi earlier in the episode, he already tried to play the game once and lost.
Here, when Hannibal tries to pull him in with subtle manipulation, Jack doesnt even speak.
He just gives Hannibal a beating in a rare show of domination against Hannibal.
It is so strange to see, so used are we to seeing Hannibal in control of the situation.
Perhaps these two options are not mutually exclusive?
Perhaps Hannibal is being the predator by embracing his identity as prey.
