1. They would probably survive Kevin Day, in that they would end up having a (or possibly several) threesomes.

2. They *should* end up having a (or several) threesomes but Kevin Day would fumble it and end up as “a queer platonic third to yet another overly intense gay couple. It's his destiny.” (Via @witsserviceablesubstitute in the comments) He’s going for 3/3, apparently. 

3. Shane and Kevin would get along great, but would make each other *so much worse*, and Ilya would likely kill the both of them (and maybe himself) before the end of the week.

It's hands down the most colorful part of the episode. The three of them are flirting and bantering the whole dance. The character designs and voice performances are very "teenagers acting a bit older than they are". Dressing up to infiltrate, the clever key handoff, the synth-y spy music...It feels very much like a teenage spy movie. And then the mission really kicks in and the killing begins, and the colors slowly darken as the deaths get more and more gruesome, as you are reminded this is only a teenage spy movie to the three of them, and this is actually a story about children being molded into killers.

Yes, she's shallow. She's sixteen, engaged to a 37 year old man, raised by a woman implied to be a bit strict, and Katherine is the loving and more generally maternal figure to Elizabeth. She's young and old at the same time, materialistic and fixated on beautiful things, raised sheltered and ignorant. She's just a teenage girl

Yeah, her problems seem stupid and unfair compared to the plot of Dark Rise, but that's just the thing- she doesn't know about the plot of Dark Rise. Katherine is living according to everything she knows. When Will comes around, he's an exciting and mysterious boy her age and she feels like she's special to him. I don't think she loved Will. I don't think she had the time to, and he's too serious and haunted for her. Even Will Kempen, the Dark King, felt bad about manipulating her to get to Simon because she's literally just a teenage girl.

Her death is unfair. The Lady planned for it, the fate of the world depended on her drawing that sword and allowing it's power to kill her, and there was no point. She didn't die for a cause. She wasn't part of a cause- not the Stewards, not the side of the Light, not anything. I think the reader is supposed to feel the horror and sadness of Katherine's death, not despite her lack of importance to the main characters, but because of it. Everyone made their sacrifices or chose their fates, but not Katherine. She dies frightened. And she was just a teenage girl.
