8 Kyle's Future After His Arrest In Mayor Of Kingstown Season 3's Finale

Shooting At Robert In Front Of Witnesses Makes A Positive Outcome More Difficult

Kyle did not have a good day in Mayor of Kingstown season 3’s finale, first coming to terms with Mike being the one who helped Tracy with CO Breens and then realizing Robert might have supported his addition to the SWAT team only so that he could influence him. Admitting out loud to Mike that Robert should not have returned to SWAT after the hit because of the mistakes and outbursts Kyle witnessed him have in the field was the final straw for him, cementing Kyle’s certainty that it would have been more likely for Robert to hurt innocent people.

Kyle shooting Robert was inevitable after he saw him execute a Crip despite his surrender, especially knowing the civilian in the car with the gun was too terrified to obey Robert’s orders and that Robert would not think twice about killing him. However, Mayor of Kingstown season 3 ending with Kyle being arrested after he didn’t misfire but clearly shot at Robert to stop his violence guaranteed Kyle’s fate remained in a state of limbo. A future season will have to clarify Kyle’s major future storyline, especially given the many witnesses that could testify how Kyle intentionally shot at Robert.

7 Callahan's Status After Returning To Jail

Callahan Was Suspiciously Absent From Season 3's Finale Despite The Multiple Upheavals

Mike’s plan to solve his Callahan problem while simultaneously giving Evelyn the headline about Raphael’s arrest after his jailbreak went haywire in Mayor of Kingstown season 3, episode 9. However, despite Raphael finding a dead guard instead of Callahan, KPD nonetheless found Callahan and seemingly sent him back to jail. Still, not seeing Callahan onscreen as Konstantin’s operation was decimated and other AB convicts brutally killed Anchor Bay’s warden was incredibly suspicious, even more so after Raphael’s arrival to the hospital might have alerted Callahan how Mike had never really been on his side.

Callahan’s absence from the major power plays of Mayor of Kingstown season 3’s finale could hint at his attempt to regroup after learning about Mike’s true allegiance to Bunny at his expense. Still, not seeing Callahan’s story end in Mayor of Kingstown season 3’s finale hints at his continuing to be a central player in a potential season 4, even more so as his final scene in season 3, episode 9 saw Callahan down on his luck, making it imperative for Mayor of Kingstown to reveal what happened to him and his AB rule after Mike’s betrayal.

6 The Sixth Street Bridge Shootout's Aftermath For Bunny & The Crips

Bunny's Gang Was Decimated By KPD & Russian Gangsters Alike

One of the biggest developments of Mayor of Kingstown season 3’s finale was the shootout between the Crips and Konstantin’s men, which included civilians and KPD's SWAT alike. Bunny and Mike’s plan was never supposed to unfold in such a public place, with Bunny explicitly choosing an isolated place to which he wanted to lead the Russian gangsters. However, both groups starting hostilities on Sixth Street Bridge ensured the shootout to have the worst outcome possible. Mayor of Kingstown will have to explain who will suffer for that mistake, given how public and potentially lethal for civilians that fight was.

Despite their problems, Bunny eventually trusted Mike in Mayor of Kingstown season 3, going along with his plan to get Konstantin off the board. However, trusting Mike once again put Bunny in a difficult place, as most of his soldiers died in the shootout, either killed by Konstantin’s henchmen or by KPD’s SWAT team. This can heavily influence Bunny and Mike’s rapport in Mayor of Kingstown season 4, making it imperative for a future, potential season to reveal how their relationship changed because of Mike’s plan failing and following the Sixth Street Bridge shootout losses.

5 Evelyn's Plan To Clean Up Kingstown

Will Evelyn Accept Lansing's Help Or Do It Herself?

Mayor of Kingstown season 3, episode 9 left Evelyn in a pickle after she went to the state to ask for help about cleaning up Kingstown and received an answer that guaranteed she would have been the one who paid for Kingstown’s failings. Her deal with Mike over Raphael’s capture seemingly hinted Evelyn would have tried to clean up Kingstown herself, without the state getting recognition for something that would inevitably smear her, being the face of everything bad that kept happening in Kingstown.

However, the Sixth Street Bridge shootout might complicate things and even force Evelyn to let the state step in. Arresting Kyle already proved Evelyn might not have Mike’s support in a future Mayor of Kingstown season, making her goal to clean up Kingstown even more difficult to reach. Moreover, adding a very public shootout to prison riots, bombings and brutal hits on prisoners from outside burdens Evelyn with more responsibility for Kingstown’s failings, having her been Assistant DA or DA when such brutalities happened. This forces Mayor of Kingstown to answer what bureaucratic change will follow Kingstown’s instability.

4 The State Of Tracy & Kyle's Marriage After Season 3's Ending Turmoil

Kyle Got Arrested & Tracy Didn't Ask Him For Help With CO Breens

Tracy’s investigation into CO Breens in Mayor of Kingstown season 3 already made things difficult between Tracy and Kyle as Breens’ threats affected Tracy and she could not confide in Kyle, not having told him about her search for answers. However, her going to Mike for help impacted Kyle negatively, feeling useless over not having the chance to protect Tracy from Breens, thus doubting his role as a protector within their family if Tracy’s first instinct was to go to Mike instead of him.

Kyle and Tracy’s discussion already had an impact on their bond, but Kyle’s arrest can have an even bigger one on their family. Between Kyle’s absence and having to fight the accusations, Tracy will have her plate full, especially considering how she was already burdened by returning to her job and also caring for baby Mitch, while simultaneously investigating what happened to Cherry in the prison. Were it to be confirmed, Mayor of Kingstown season 4 needs to show how Tracy and Kyle will navigate Kyle’s arrest and their bond vacillating after Tracy didn’t rely on Kyle for help.

3 Mike's Future After Reflecting On His Morality

Mayor Of Kingstown Season 3's Ending Voiceover Focused A Lot On Mike's Morals

Mayor of Kingstown season 3’s finale included Mike’s words to Anna in jail as a voiceover, playing multiple times over the course of the episode, as Mike dealt with the consequences of his actions and wondered what those made him. Throughout Mayor of Kingstown, Mike never seemed to consider himself a good person, instead choosing the role of mayor as some form of penance, not gaining anything personally from brokering deals among Kingstown’s criminals. However, two characters pointed out the good in him in Mayor of Kingstown season 3’s finale.

Mayor of Kingstown season 4 will need to reveal whether doubting his goodness will bring Mike to a different type of role within Kingstown’s ecosystem or condemn him to a future with self-imposed penitence.

2 Robert's Fate & Emotions After Kyle Shot Him In Season 3's Finale

Robert Is Alive But It's Unclear Whether He Can Return To SWAT

Robert’s health was at risk by Mayor of Kingstown season 2’s ending following the Crips’ hit on him. However, the events that brought him to the hospital in Mayor of Kingstown season 3’s finale are even more distressing, considering it happened because two members of the SWAT team fought against one other in the shootout that wounded Robert. Given Robert’s record and his words to remind Kyle of how important it was to support his brothers within SWAT, it’s unlikely that Robert won’t take Kyle shooting at him as an utter betrayal.

Robert’s emotions were already out of control in Mayor of Kingstown season 3, with his trust in Mike being eroded by his belief the Crips attacked him instead of AB. However, Kyle shooting at him was something Robert witnessed firsthand before being brought to the hospital, making Robert sure of Kyle’s incredible betrayal to protect civilians. A potential Mayor of Kingstown season 4 would not only need to update viewers about Robert’s health but also investigate how Robert will retaliate against Kyle, something he will likely do given how he always expected his SWAT team members to cover for him.
