List of everyone who dies in Reacher Season 3 Episode 5

The following characters die in Reacher Season 3 Episode 5:

Steven Elliot

Steven Elliot, the rookie DEA agent is the first casualty of Episode 5. He is keeping watch over Quinn’s bodyguard, John Cooper, who was captured by Duffy and her team. Cooper, craving a cigarette, keeps pestering Elliot for one, who in turn, keeps refusing. While he is badgering Elliot, he secretly uses a knife to free himself, planning to strike when he has an opening.

Elliot is eventually annoyed and decides to hand Cooper a cigarette. As he does so, the bodyguard, who has freed himself, spits alcohol on the naked cigarette flame. This leads to Elliot’s face burning, bringing him to the ground. Cooper then repeatedly stomps on his head, killing him in a cruel manner.

Annette

Annette is another casualty in Season 3 Episode 5. She poses as a French housemaid until her true affiliation to the ATF is revealed. As a result, McCabe and his men soon track Annette down via the phone she used to leak the activities of McCabe and his crew. Though Reacher tries to save her under the guise of obtaining more information, Paulie ends up killing her.

John Cooper

John Cooper, Quinn’s bodyguard who killed Steven Elliot, is the third character to die in the episode. He falls into a trap, a staged accident, set up by Reacher in order to prevent him from reaching McCabe. Eventually, Reacher fatally shoots Cooper in the head.

McCabe’s henchmen

Apart from the pivotal characters mentioned above, two of McCabe’s henchmen are also killed by Reacher and Duffy when they arrive at a commercial facility, looking for Angel Doll’s laptop.
