Killers Anonymous (2019) Timeline Explained – Every Event in Order

The Man orders Jade to leave immediately because her cover has been blown. The bouncer who recognized her is an old acquaintance, which means Jade's identity is compromised and she can no longer safely operate in London. This jeopardizes the assassination plot on Senator Kyle.

Foreshadowing: Earlier, the group was already nervous about outside threats and leaks within their meetings.

Jade is shot by a female assassin posing as a prostitute. The attack was orchestrated by members within Killers Anonymous itself, specifically Krystal, who had a hand in planning Jade's attack. This was likely a setup to remove Jade from the operation after her previous failure.

Foreshadowing: Tensions were already high about the botched assassination attempt on Senator Kyle.

Senator Kyle crashes the KA meeting because he's furious about the assassination attempt. He accuses Joanna of deviating from their original plan, which was supposed to be mere intimidation, not an actual hit. He also suspects Joanna is working with the CIA, which he claims uses KA as a front for assassination operations.

Foreshadowing: Earlier discussions about the senator triggered Alice's discomfort and attempts to leave the meeting.

Joanna reveals that Alice was actually the one who carried out the assassination attempt on Senator Kyle after Jade failed. By designating Alice as the new leader, Joanna passes on the responsibility and visibility of the group to someone she claims has proven herself capable of the mission.

Foreshadowing: Alice's discomfort during discussions about the senator and her supposed "untraceable message" leading to the meeting raised Joanna's suspicions earlier.

Alice and Molly are revealed to be sisters who share the surname Romanoff, suggesting Russian connections. However, as the story unfolds, it's suggested their family connections may be fabricated, just another layer of the deception that permeates Killers Anonymous.

In the film's climax, Alice, Molly, and Krystal eliminate all other members of Killers Anonymous. This represents a complete betrayal of the group's supposed support-system purpose, showing that the lethal consensus reached was to silence everyone, likely to prevent the truth about the assassination plot and CIA connections from spreading.

Foreshadowing: The group's meetings were filled with confessions that could incriminate every member present.

Senator Kyle accuses Joanna of working with the CIA, claiming the agency uses Killers Anonymous as a front for its own assassination operations. The group was allegedly being manipulated from outside, with powerful forces using KA members as disposable assets for political hits.

Foreshadowing: The group noticed suspicious manipulations happening around their meetings even before the senator's arrival.

Joanna becomes suspicious of Alice because Alice claims to have received an untraceable message leading her to the meeting, a highly unusual occurrence in such a secretive group. Joanna believes no one should be able to find KA without inside help, leading her to conclude Alice was connected to the botched assassination attempt.

Foreshadowing: Alice's nervous attempts to leave the meeting during discussions about the senator further fueled Joanna's suspicion.

Molly is revealed to be the hidden observer listening from the air ducts during KA meetings. Her presence is discovered when she coughs, inadvertently revealing her location to the group. She turns out to be Alice's sister, making her involvement in the group's affairs even more suspicious.

Foreshadowing: Strange noises were heard from the ducts during one of the intense confession sessions.

Jade was tasked with assassinating Senator Kyle during his visit to London. However, she was recognized by an old acquaintance working as a bouncer at a bar, forcing The Man to extract her from the city. She was then shot by another assassin (likely sent by Krystal and others within KA), leaving the mission to be taken over by Alice.

Foreshadowing: The assassination attempt on Senator Kyle in the city center was the event that first disrupted the KA group's stability.
