Killjoys “Heart-Shaped Box” was written by creator Michelle Lovretta and was directed by April Mullen, whose other credits include Real Detective and Aftermath. This episode picks up the morning after the last episode ended, and the team is dealing with their choices. It turns out that D’Avin (Luke Macfarlane) didn’t kill Sabine (Tori Anderson) after all, but she’s also not the nice little farmgirl he thought either.
Dutch (Hannah John-Kamen) and D’Avin disagree over tactics. Dutch makes a deal. Bellus (Nora McLellan) is reluctant to help John. D’Avin takes a very interesting bath. John and Dutch work together, and then both keep secrets from the other. Dutch gets another new look. John learns something important about the wall around Old Town. Dutch misjudges D’Avin, but Dutch and D’Avin team up when John goes solo. There’s a particularly good fight! Johnny runs into some trouble, and Dutch is reunited with some of her past.

Everything you do is a bit about her.
Just tell me you’ll miss me.
Because you’re restrained, and I’m violent.
Because I ask too many stupid questons.
He didn’t train you to be weak when it counts.
Boobs are awesome! They’re like tactical weapons only squishy.
Nothing about this is fair.
The more damaged and antisocial you are, the better fit you are.
Where’s Johnny? We’ve got problems.
That’s not the kind of doctor I want to play with you.
