Villanelle, the assassin portrayed by Jodie Comer in BBC America’s spy drama Killing Eve, is notorious for her creative approaches to killing targets. But murder via breakfast is a tactic that even she has yet to dream up.

BBC Creative, the network’s in-house agency, promoted the release of the show’s third season on U.K. streaming service BBC iPlayer by sending influencers themed “Assassin Puffs” breakfast boxes.

The kids’ cereal box-themed kits featured an illustration of Villanelle, and inside offered treats inspired by the series.
