** The name Villanelle uses as her interrogatory with her help hotline (Dozen Incorporated), "Cher Horowitz" is the character Cher's (played by Alicia Silverstone) full name from Film/{{Clueless}} (1995). Her distress code was that she "failed her driving test" - which was an obstacle for Cher in the movie. This is a callback to how she repeatedly mentioned she liked watching movies in series one.

You thought I'd be an easy target, didn't you? Thought you'd take advantage of the Good Samaritan. I see what you're doing. Don't think I haven't noticed. Playing the innocent, batting your eyelashes, getting me to wait on you hand and foot, feed you, look after you, give you everything you want. And what do I get, hmm? What do I get? Nothing! Nothing! Why don't I get anything?

* PrecisionFStrike: Villanelle in great distress and agitation which is uncharacteristic for her since she’s never been in the position where she had to fear for her life, had to call MI-6 and ask for Eve Polastri to get her out of Julian’s house. Since the automated operator doesn’t understand her well and kept on asking repeatedly for the person’s name, it caused her such frustration and rage that she yells:
--> '''Villanelle''': Eve Polastri, you piece of '''SHIT!!'''
