At the conclusion of his murderous run in season one, Joe kills Beck and accuses Dr. Nicky of the crime after publishing her essay — but trouble might be ahead for the bookstore owner/creeper. In the final moments of the season, we see him enamoured with a new woman. It's an eerie scene, given that that's exactly how the season starts when he first sees Beck. It turns out this woman is no stranger: it's his ex Candace, alive and well, and she needs to talk.
