4. What is going on with Tulip?
In the Preacher comics, Tulip was working as a hitwoman and screwed up, which is how she met Cassidy. Then, Jesse and Cassidy accompanied her to Dallas to take care of the people she was working for. However, things are a little different on the Preacher TV show. It appears that Tulip has a mysterious past that Jesse doesn’t know about in Louisiana with what sounds like an organized mob boss named Viktor.
That storyline started in the second episode of the Preacher Season 2 premiere when a thug named Gary saw Tulip in the casino that our heroes were staying at. Gary told her that Viktor was trying to get in touch with her and she needed to call him. When she refused, Gary attacked and tried to kill her, only for Tulip to take him down and finally have Cassidy eliminate the body. This looks to be a story that will start up in two weeks as episode four is actually titled, “Viktor.”
