Contains spoilers and speculations for 'Mayor of Kingstown' Season 3

KINGSTOWN, MICHIGAN: 'Mayor of Kingstown' Season 3 has escalated to new heights of intensity, with Episode 7 serving as a prime example of its gripping narrative. 

Mike McLusky (Jeremy Renner), determined to maintain order in the face of mounting chaos, finds himself drawn deeper into a dangerous game of strategy and survival.

In the opening scene of 'Mayor of Kingstown' Season 3 Episode 7, a group of Russian girls heading to Kingstown meet a tragic end. Ian Ferguson (Hugh Dillon) later reveals evidence suggesting foul play in the deaths.

While Mike suspects Merle Callahan (Richard Brake), the leader of the Aryan Brotherhood, Ian puts forward Bunny Washington (Tobi Bamtefa) as a potential culprit. However, who is the real culprit? Let's discuss this in detail.

Is Konstantin responsible for killing the Russian girls in 'Mayor of Kingstown'?

The girls who tragically died while crossing into Kingstown belonged to Konstantin (played by Yorick van Wageningen).

Initially, this led many to dismiss the notion that Konstantin could be involved in their deaths, assuming he would protect them at any cost. However, it appears he is indeed responsible for their deaths.

It appears that Konstantin was aware of Iris's (Emma Laird) betrayal, which fueled his decision to potentially kill the girls to send Iris a chilling message. His knowledge of Iris's betrayal likely deepened his sense of betrayal and mistrust, prompting him to take drastic measures to assert his authority and dominance over her. 

When Iris discovers that the girls were killed, she becomes numb and breaks down in tears, deeply affected by the tragedy. It appears that this was Konstantin's plan all along. He knows that a similar experience might have happened to Iris in the past, so he is deliberately causing her emotional distress.

If Mike discovers that Konstantin is manipulating Iris, it could ignite his fury, especially since he cares deeply for her. Mike's protective instincts would likely intensify, driven by a desire to shield Iris from further harm.

Mike may attempt to intervene and assist Iris in escaping her situation. If Mike fails in his efforts, Konstantin's ruthless nature suggests he could even resort to killing Iris without hesitation.

Mike is also affected by the deaths of the Russian girls, and if he discovers that Konstantin is responsible for their deaths, it could unleash a powerful desire for revenge within him.

The loss of innocent lives, especially under such tragic circumstances, would fuel Mike's anger and determination to hold Konstantin accountable for his actions.

How far will Mike McLusky go to avenge deaths of the Russian girls in 'Mayor of Kingstown'?

Mike's grief would transform into a steely resolve, pushing him to confront Konstantin directly and disrupt his drug operations in Kingstown.

The conflict between Mike and Konstantin would escalate to new heights, becoming a central storyline in 'Mayor of Kingstown' Season 3. Mike's quest for vengeance would not only test his moral boundaries but also intensify the dangerous power struggle within Kingstown's underworld.

Mike would devise a plan with Bunny to cripple Konstantin's drug business once and for all. Determined to rescue Iris, he may boldly venture into Konstantin's territory, risking everything to ensure her safety.

All this time, Mike had been holding himself back from directly confronting Konstantin, carefully navigating the delicate balance of power in Kingstown. However, after the deaths of the girls and with Iris's safety now directly threatened, Mike may abandon his cautious approach.

In 'Mayor of Kingstown' Season 3, Episode 4, the long-anticipated meeting between Mike and Merle takes place

Mike may turn Merle against Konstantin. He may offer Merle what he desires or some form of leniency in prison in exchange for his allegiance against Konstantin.

Ultimately, Mike's efforts to turn Merle against Konstantin could pave the way for a dramatic showdown that could reshape the power dynamics of Kingstown.
