Episode 3 of Hunting Wives is the kind of episode that feels like a mid-season finale—messy, dark, and packed with moments that make you yell at the screen. We get a shocking time jump, a shooting, escalating power plays, and an ending that completely reframes Sophie’s role in this story.

In this week’s episode of Turkish TV Obsessed (soon to be TV Obsessed), we’re back in East Texas for another juicy, unhinged installment of The Hunting Wives. Melissa and Laura break down Season 1, Episode 2, where bodies are found, church ladies gossip, and Margot proves she’s the most dangerous woman in Texas.

We talk about the episode’s wild mix of southern politeness meets dark secrets — from creepy preachers and “Project Life” baby drives to Margot’s complicated web of manipulation involving her husband, her girlfriend Callie, and teenage boy toy Brad.

By the time Sophie finds out what’s really happening at the lake house… let’s just say, this episode earns its “spicy” label.

We also unpack first impressions of Sophie’s husband (spoiler: he’s the worst), debate who the mystery victim might be, and share our theories on what’s next for this glamorous, gun-toting small-town cult of wives.
