Why Harry’s Refusal to Help Kat Could Spark MobLand Season 2’s Deadly War

BBG News

Caution: Significant plot revelations follow for the final episode of MobLand. The season finale revealed that the conflict within the Harrigan crime family has come to an end, but Harry’s rejection of the enigmatic and perilous Kat McAllister could spark a more lethal dispute in the near future. By the conclusion of episode 10, Harry had finally met with Kat McAllister after the brutal dismantling of the Stevenson crime organization, an event she appeared to predict with chilling precision. As anticipated due to their prominence in earlier episodes, the meeting concerned the debts Harry owes Kat for her role in rescuing Seraphina Harrigan and arranging a rendezvous with Jaime Lopez on Conrad’s behalf.

Initially, their chat was friendly, but then, unexpectedly, Kat disclosed her true intentions: she sought Conrad’s assistance to eliminate the Harrigans so she could seize control of London’s gun and drug trade, which their group manages. Despite acknowledging Kat’s influence, Harry declined her request bluntly due to his loyalty towards the Harrigans, particularly his friend, Kevin. This rejection potentially put Harry, his wife, and daughter in danger, leaving one to wonder why Harry would behave so impolitely towards Kat.

Harry’s Loyalty To The Harrigans Defines Him

Loyalty Is Behind Every Decision He Makes

As a movie enthusiast, I must confess that it’s challenging to label Harry Da Souza as a “good” man after watching the first season of MobLand. He might not be as ruthless or malicious as those he obeys, but his role in carrying out their commands doesn’t set him apart significantly. A more fitting description could be that Harry is a “principled” character instead; he seems to operate under a strict set of beliefs that guide his choices, and he remains unwavering in his convictions. In the gritty world of MobLand, this sense of principle makes him an exceptional figure.

Harry’s unwavering loyalty towards the Harrigans represents one of the few decisions he has control over in his life. Although he possesses dangerous abilities that could be utilized by various parties, his decision to stay by his friend Kevin’s side and defend the Harrigans – even if it involves resorting to violence – is at least commendable. If Harry were to switch allegiances without a second thought, there wouldn’t be much substance left in his character. He would simply become a hired weapon, indistinguishable from the gun he uses.

Harry Would Be Damned Either Way

Either Kat Or The Harrigans Would Come For His Family

I can certainly understand why Harry’s steadfast loyalty to the Harrigans might be commendable, but let’s not forget the potential consequences he faces. If Harry were to assist Kat and betray the Harrigans, it would put him and his entire family squarely in the crosshairs of the Harrigans’ inner circle. Conrad himself has made it clear that if they lose their grip on the gun and drug operation but somehow manage to survive, seeking revenge against those responsible will be their top priority, given their current state of mind. They are not only powerful, but also seem to be quite malevolent and unstable, so this is a risk that Harry cannot afford to ignore.

From a movie buff’s perspective, it appears as if Harry finds himself in a classic catch-22 situation. In some ways, it could be argued that choosing to betray the Harrigans might seem wiser, given their local influence versus Kat McAllister’s global crime empire. However, staying loyal to them despite the long odds against him speaks volumes about his character and makes his decision all the more admirable, even if it seems reckless for his family’s safety.

Is Kat Going To Be MobLand Season 2’s Villain?

She Seems Like The Most Obvious (And Most Dangerous) Threat

After the Stevensons are out of the picture, leaving the Harrigans in dominance of London’s criminal scene by the end of season 1, it appears that there’s only one direction to move – upwards and beyond. In light of this, it seems logical for season 2 to expand the setting overseas, as the Harrigans are now allied with Jamie Lopez’s Mexican cartel. Moreover, Harry’s recent actions have provoked Kat McAllister, a formidable figure. There’s a chance that Kat might exert her sway over Jamie Lopez to make him betray the Harrigans and become the season 2 antagonist. Meanwhile, we can expect Kat to be patiently waiting for the right moment to strike.

In essence, Kat McAllister appears to be the main antagonist throughout the series, even if Jaime or another significant character assumes the role of villain for Season 2, similar to Richie Stevenson. However, it’s highly likely that the true puppeteer will be Kat, as she has openly declared her ambitions to control the London game. Therefore, it seems inevitable that she and Harry will engage in a battle of wits at some point. Regrettably, Kat will probably have vastly greater resources available, whether their confrontation occurs in Season 2 or later on in the series.

We Still Don’t Know Who Kat Really Is

The Season Finale Didn’t Provide Any Clear Answers

Speculation about Kat McAllister’s true identity has swirled since her introduction, with many believing she is a high-ranking CIA or MI6 official secretly working alongside major crime lords to prevent global chaos. However, this theory appears less likely now that she has publicly shown interest in the Harrigans’ operation and demonstrated a readiness to swiftly eliminate them to acquire it. Although it’s possible she could be playing a long game, so far we haven’t witnessed such intricate deception in the world of MobLand.

Since Kat McAllister first appeared, there have been numerous theories suggesting she is a high-ranking intelligence officer secretly working with crime lords to maintain global order. But now that she’s openly declared her involvement in the Harrigans’ operation and shown eagerness to take them down quickly for it, this theory seems less likely. It’s possible she could be playing a long game, but we haven’t observed such complex deceit in MobLand yet.

The evidence suggests that Kat holds a prominent position in the global criminal underworld. Her manipulation of the Mexican cartel is a strong indication of her considerable power, and the fact that she always appears to act alone implies that she operates independently from the well-known crime organizations worldwide. If there’s a second season of MobLand, it seems likely that we’ll learn more about Kat McAllister’s past and understand how Harry made a mistake by not allying himself with her.
