"Hannibal" season 3 is almost halfway through the Red Dragon arc and things are going to be more muddled from there. The next installment titled "And the Woman Clothed in Sun" is particularly exciting, with Bedelia finally making another glorious appearance. 

In the past two episodes, Hannibal's pretend wife in Italy was a no-show but in this episode, her services will be needed not by the killer doctor but by Will Graham, who is starting to get creeped out with how close he and Hannibal are getting. 

Alana has already warned Will in the previous "Hannibal" season 3 installment that working with the doctor never ends with anything good and is often laden with unthinkable costs. It looks like she will get to say, "I told you so." 

Bedelia would know how to shed light on this weird connection since she ran off with Hannibal to Florence, spent time with the murderer for quite a while, took part in their farce marriage, and developed something deeper with him. 

Apart from this "uncomfortably stronger" bond, Will is also working on getting inside Francis Dolaryhde's head to understand its unsettling machinations. To achieve this, Will will look into the Great Red Dragon carvings left by the so-called Tooth Fairy in his crime scenes. 

As for Dolarhyde, this episode will reveal that the new serial killer on the block has discovered a way to personally connect with Hannibal, who he sees as a dealer in the same murdering business. Their newly established link has a lot to do with Tooth Fairy's transformation. Whatever kind of bond that forms between them, it will likely border on creepy and fascinating at the same time.

Meanwhile, in the previous episode, fans first heard Dolarhyde's voice. It was also there that he ruthlessly massacred two families all in the name of becoming the Great Red Dragon.

"Hannibal" season 3 episode 10, "And the Woman Clothed in Sun," airs on Aug. 6.
