Zoe Saldaña pulled back the curtain on the latest episode of "Lioness" with some viral Instagram posts.

The main storyline is the search for Joe (Saldaña) after she was kidnapped following a brutal and bloody operation in Ukraine to grab a Russian.

The mystery of who orchestrated the entire kidnapping runs deep through six episodes.

Episode 6 – "Sugar Land" – gave fans a massive reveal this past Sunday:

The Iranians appear to be the puppet master behind the targeting of Joe.

The episode also featured a grisly moment of Joe being tortured by the main Iranian captor. It was an incredibly uneasy scene to watch, but absolutely necessary for setting the stakes of what could be awaiting Joe if her team can't successfully rescue her.

Well, the popular actress took to Instagram to shine a light on some behind the scenes action from the torture scene and lighten the mood a bit.

She shared a pair of Instagram posts showing fans how the on-screen brutality went down.

"Episode 6 was a real challenge," Saldaña wrote on one of the posts.

You can check out both below.

Now, there are two episodes remaining in season 3, and the stakes couldn't be higher as the race to save Joe's life is on. I can't wait to see how it all unfolds. Have a fun theory? Let me know at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.
