It's Allison and Patty vs. the police in exclusive Kevin Can F**K Himself finale clip
Are Allison and Patty on the brink of being caught for their murderous plans?
In AMC’s Kevin Can F**K Himself, Allison McRoberts (Annie Murphy) has spent almost the entirety of season one trying to escape her marriage. For her, the only way to permanently get rid of her husband, Kevin (Eric Petersen), is to kill him after she’s endured 10 years worth of toxic emotional abuse and sexism. The series attempts to subvert classic sitcom tropes by flipping the script and focusing on the wife character, the same one who is usually the butt of her husband’s glib jokes. However, instead of wrapping up the plot in a 20-minute episode, KCFH shows Allison finding her voice and agency over time. She gets help in her plans to kill Kevin from new friend Patty (Mary Hollis Inboden), and both of them finally hire local drug dealer Nick (Robin Lord Taylor) to murder Kevin. As seen in the penultimate episode, “Broken,” their plans go awry when he breaks into their home sooner than expected and a shooting takes place.
As seen in this exclusive The A.V. Club clip from the KCFH finale, titled “Fixed,” Allison and Patty are now probably about to face the consequences of this unexpected development in their plans. Allison spent time being grilled by Detective Tammy (Candice Coke) in “Broken,” but now Patty—who is dating Tammy—arrives on scene. She is nervously waiting for her best friend, joking to the cop next to her to arrest her because she’s anxious. Don’t worry, she quickly recognizes she’s at the police station and takes her words back.
