'She got busted': 'Mayor of Kingstown' Season 3 fans abuzz with speculation over Iris's mysterious record
KINGSTOWN, MICHIGAN: 'Mayor of Kingstown' Season 3 is getting intense with each episode, particularly because of Iris' (Emma Laird) mysterious past.
Throughout the series, Iris has been a mysterious character, with hints and glimpses of her mysterious past scattered throughout the narrative. Fans have long been intrigued by Iris' mysterious nature and her past, and 'Mayor of Kingstown' Season 3 delves deeper into her backstory.
In 'Mayor of Kingstown' Season 3 Episode 3, Mike McLusky (Jeremy Renner) met Iris in jail, referring to her as Jane Doe, a term used when a person's true name is unknown. Later in Episode 3, Ian Ferguson (Hugh Dillon) scanned a report and discovered information that Iris wanted to keep confidential. Ian was shocked after seeing the report and promised her to keep it a secret.
Fans are now abuzz with speculation about what could have been in that report. Theories and guesses abound as viewers dissect every clue and detail, trying to uncover the mystery that left Ian so stunned.
Ian's stunned reaction to Iris' confidential report sparks fan theories and speculations
Fans have taken to Reddit to talk about the shocking report that made Ian speechless, and the platform is buzzing with theories, discussions, and heated debates.
The fans are piecing together clues and events from all seasons of 'Mayor of Kingstown' to suggest a significant plot development involving Iris.
A fan wrote on Reddit, "Her prints are all over multiple crime scenes, the most recent being that guy that was Milo’s right hand man. She killed him and left him in the fancy hotel . Cops definitely showed up and finger printed the scene, and they matched her prints to it if she gave up."
In 'Mayor of Kingstown' Season 2, Iris, who has been navigating a treacherous and dangerous environment, finds herself in a life-or-death situation with Joseph (George Tchortov), Milo’s (Aidan Gillen) right-hand man. So, she grabs a piece of broken glass and repeatedly stabs Joseph in the neck, killing him. It's possible that the report Ian discovered may have contained fingerprints linking Iris to her past crimes, including the murder of Joseph.
Another fan wrote on Reddit, "It's something to do with the murder and her being in a s**ual relationship with a judge."
In 'Mayor of Kingstown' Season 3 Episode 3, Iris revealed that she is acquainted with Konstantin (Yorick van Wageningen) from their past in New York. Iris said she was romantically and sexually involved with a judge who was connected to Konstantin's murder case. Iris confessed to assisting in resolving the charge against Konstantin because she dated the judge.
Her relationship with the judge suggests that she was somehow involved in the murder case herself, and her association with the judge was a way to gain inside information and change the outcome of the case to her favor.
Another fan speculated on Reddit about Iris possibly being undercover. This theory suggests that Iris may be working secretly for law enforcement or another organization, using her position to gather information or take down criminal operations from Kingstown.
To this theory, another fan replied on Reddit, "I'm leaning toward FBI informant. That could be why she kept going back to Milo and why she turned down Witness Protection. I feel like she got busted for something and they flipped her to stay inside and feed them info. I think Tatiana was too."
Iris' actions, including the murder of Joseph, could be part of her mission to gather evidence against key players in Kingstown's criminal underworld.
A fan wrote on Reddit, "I’ve been wondering that since I finished the episode. It’s hard to imagine what it could be based on Ian’s reaction since Ian’s no stranger to bending the rules. I think Ian will probably tell Mike eventually. Right now I think she probably has a warrant for her arrest in another state maybe, or at least something that’s ongoing since she didn’t want to give up her prints. That would explain why she hasn’t left Kingstown if it’s the only place where Mike can control the police to keep her safe."
If she has a warrant for her arrest or is involved in ongoing legal trouble, it would make sense for her to avoid giving her fingerprints to avoid detection.
Fans buzz with intriguing theories as Iris' mysterious plot thickens
A die-hard 'Mayor of Kingstown' enthusiast wrote on Reddit, "I think she was rescued by Milo for and from something bad, and probably isn't an American citizen. Something that if she gets sent back, she's going to be "taken apart with a pair of pliers and a blowtorch" (to quote a great movie). She might be a Russian spy." While another on Reddit said, "My first thought was she’s not an American citizen and would be deported."
Another fan suggested on Reddit that Iris might be a runaway or a missing person. This theory aligns with the idea that Iris is hiding from something or someone, which could explain her secretive and cautious behavior.
A die-hard fan speculated on Reddit that Iris might be the niece of the Aryan leader, Merle Callahan (Richard Brake). Merle mentioning his niece in jail could be a subtle clue that Iris is indeed the niece he came to meet. If Iris is hiding for some reason, it could be to avoid being discovered by Merle or to protect herself from any potential danger associated with Merle's criminal connections.
Another fan suggested on Reddit that Iris may be hiding because she committed murder in a state that has the death penalty. If Iris' past crime is discovered, she could face arrest and extradition to the state where the murder occurred.
