It seems like she's meant to come across as more similar to Hannibal than she's comfortable with, but with more impulse control?
I would agree, except that in 3x01 she was basically terrified the whole episode. Her actions were those of a prisoner, not a nervous accomplice. But yeah, in every other episode, she's come off as really cold. I just can't make sense of her in 3x01. I don't think it was in line with what came before or after.
I also feel like they're setting up Alana's death. I will be disappointed if she dies and Chilton doesn't, lol. I didn't cry fridging when Beverly died, but if another main female character dies without a main male to even the score, I'm going to be annoyed. And Chilton is the most obvious candidate, since he dies in canon and since a theoretical SotL would need Jack. Though, granted, Chilton wouldn't die until SotL anyway (unless they speed things up), which we're not going to get. As it is, I'm halfway wondering if Hannibal is going to escape by the end of the season or something. Because I don't know how he could kill Alana otherwise? Unless, as I saw the theory, he sends Dolarhyde after her family instead of Will's. Though that seems unlikely since we saw him getting Will's address this episode.
