The last "Hannibal" season 3 episode finally introduced the Tooth Fairy to the audience.
After playing cat and mouse in the first two and a half seasons, Dr. Hannibal Lecter (Mads Mikkelsen) and FBI agent Will Graham (Hugh Dancy) will now work together to take down a feared serial killer only known to the world as the Tooth Fairy.
Having Lecter and Graham and work together is an understatement of how good this new villain is. During the days when he is not stalking his new victim, he lives a normal life and goes by the name Francis Dolarhyde.
Although he has a knack for killing 'perfect families', he too wants to live a normal life. He also goes out on date. However, this part of his life does not go the way he imagines. In the words of Richard Armitage who plays this character, Dolarhyde's love life is a tragedy and this will be shown in the next "Hannibal" season 3 episode.
"You know what, we really do honor the book, and so you see the full extent of that tragic love story," Armitage said in an interview with TV Line.
"To me, really, the crimes aside - and remember, I never actually had to portray any of the crimes, so I suppose I compartmentalized them - Dolarhyde and Reba represent a tragic, romantic love story, which really doesn't end well and escalates into a Shakespearian opera of the proportions that Thomas Harris really explores in the novel."
In the Thomas Harris book where the show's characters were based from, Reba is a blind woman who fell in love with Francis Dolarhyde.
The next episode is called "And the Woman Clothed with the Sun." Read the full "Hannibal" season 3 episode guide below:
