Summary

  • Aaliyah Amrohi was revealed in the final moments of "Lioness" season 3 as the mastermind behind Joe's kidnapping, tying the season's central mystery back to season 1.
  • Revenge drove the plot: Aaliyah targeted Joe over her father's killing, after the show spent much of the season pointing suspicion toward Russians, Ukrainians or Iranians.
  • Episode 8 also featured a restaurant shootout after Joe ordered her team to engage the man who kidnapped her, a decision some viewers said backfired in a crowded setting.
  • Reddit reactions focused on the full-circle twist and Aaliyah's return, with many viewers saying the finale strongly sets up a fourth season that could be the series' last.
