A Running List of Every Person Joe Has Killed on ‘You’
It’s been a hot second since the first season of You dropped, so you might have forgotten just how many people Joe has killed at this point. I mean, it’s a lot! It’s hard to keep track. Before you binge season 2, we’re here to remind you about every Joe Goldberg victims. We threw in the S2 victims, for good measure.
There are major spoilers ahead for You season 1 and 2. If you haven’t watched either, exit this post. If you’ve just watched season 1, you should probably stop reading where it very clearly says “Season 2” in a fun font below.
Season 1
Elijah
Elijah was killed before the events of season 1, and he was the one Candance cheated on Joe with. Obviously, in Joe’s world, that means he needs to die.
Benji
The very first death we actually see, chronologically, is Benji, Beck’s crappy maybe-boyfriend.
Peach Salinger
Peach knew entirely too much, so Joe tried to kill her not once, but twice. He succeeded the second time, obviously.
Ron
Admittedly one of the deaths I forgot about, this was the abusive boyfriend of Joe’s neighbor. Joe used to hang out with the kid who lived in that apartment, Paco.
Beck
Beck! We all knew Beck had to die, right? There was no way she was going to survive. This was definitely the biggest death of them all, because it sets the entire show up for season 2.
Season 2
This dude
I’m not even sure they gave this guy a name, but he’s the one who came to collect the money Will Bettelheim owed. When he attacked Joe, Joe killed him. As one does!!
Henderson
Ah, yes, we’ll never forget the Roomba/blood vacuum incident that marked the end of Hendy’s sad, sad life. I hate to say this, but the guy had it coming.
Final count
That puts us at 8 people! For reference, the Golden State Killer’s body count is 13.
