As expected, Delaney approaches their reunion with brooding apathy. We see a different side of her this week, almost high off the murder of her husband, and reflexively returning to Delaney’s arms. On the day of the funeral, clad in her black mourning dress, Zilpha triumphantly sticks the blood-crusted pin she used to kill her husband into her hat. And how polite of Delaney and Zilpha to wait until Thorne is no longer breathing to resume their affair. This means the other event we’ve slogged through six episodes waiting in hot anticipation for is finally upon us: sibling sex. They are the real big bad that we should all be very, very afraid of.įinally the time has come: Zilpha is free of Thorne. Perhaps it’s just a way of reminding us, the audience, that petty squabbles mean little when compared to the unrelenting force of East India Company, which bears down hard on Delaney this week. For all the suspense Taboo has built up between Delaney and Thorne, rivals for both Zilpha’s affection and the inheritance rights to the Nootka Sound, Thorne’s death winds up being so anticlimactic it almost feels incomplete. While it was satisfying to see Zilpha enact justice against her terrible husband, he died with barely a whimper, which is a stark contrast with the guttural noises Delaney’s victims tend to emit when he slashes them open. But I will admit that I was both elated and slightly disappointed at the way he went out: skewered like a shish kebob in his sleep by Zilpha with a giant hat pin. Nevertheless, he is super dead now and I, like Zilpha, will not mourn him for long. In this case, however, Thorne’s fear wasn’t unfounded. Good riddance to yet another horrible male character who does nothing but commit violence toward women because he’s threatened by the prospect of emasculation by way of his wife’s blood relatives. Somewhere out there the Gods heard me complaining about characters I wouldn’t mind seeing dead on Taboo, because hallelujah! Thorne is dead.
