Warning: Major spoilers for "You" ahead.

When Beck almost found Joe hiding in her shower.

This is one of the more mild shocks, but it was one of the first suspenseful moments of the season. In the first episode, Joe broke into Beck's apartment without getting caught.

And then, of course, Beck unexpectedly came home and Joe hid in the shower. While Joe was in the shower, Beck reached her hand inside to turn the water on. Before she could shower, she got distracted by a phone call and she ended up turning the water back off. 

When Joe attacked Beck's boyfriend, Benji.

While gathering information on Beck in the first episode, Joe quickly realized that he hated her current boyfriend, Benji, who treated her poorly. And so, outraged by him, Joe lured Benji into the basement of his bookstore by pretending he was a reporter for New York Magazine who wanted to do a feature on Benji's soda startup. Joe promptly hit Benji over the head with a mallet, knocking him out.

When Joe finally killed Benji after having him locked up for days.

After knocking him out, Joe locked Benji in what some viewers have dubbed the "book dungeon," a glass cage located in the basement of the bookstore that's intended purpose was to protect and temperature-control old books that needed to be kept in pristine condition.

After a few days, Joe decided he must kill Benji. Remembering Benji's severe nut allergy, Joe snuck peanut oil into Benji's latte, killing him.
