“ | Karen: You said you could kill someone immediately? Blitzø: Oh- yeah! Yes, we sure can! Karen: Good, because it's Christmas. Blitzø: It's Sinsmas, lady, get it right. Karen: I can't stand the idea of my f*cking ex-husband enjoying this sacred holiday with my daughters when he f*cking left me for another man! Blitzø: Oh, well, (nervous laugh) Tha-tha-that sounds like something that can happen from time to time. Karen: And he probably cheated on me! Blitzø: Well, that's... (Stolas screeches tearfully) ...not really killing someone over though, right? I mean, cheating isn't really that big of a deal anymore, is it? Karen: Isn't that what this business does? He doesn't deserve to live that heinous lifestyle and poison my daughters with it! |

~ Karen Client hiring the I.M.P to kill her ex-husband for leaving her for another man. |
The Karen Client is the secondary antagonist of the Season 2 finale "Sinsmas" in the adult-animated black comedy romantic drama web series Helluva Boss.
She is a client that hired I.M.P during Sinsmas to have her ex-husband murdered for leaving her for a man and "[living] that heinous lifestyle and poison [her] daughters with it". However, due to her ex-husband's situation being so similar to Blitzø and Stolas' own, as well as Blitzo on sight seeing himself and his own family in the humans', her request was one of the first jobs that I.M.P rejected.
She is voiced by Jinhee Joung.
What Makes Her a Hate Sink?[]
- She requested I.M.P to assassinate her ex-husband for leaving her for another man and taking his daughters with him, and assumed that he probably cheated on her.
- Even if her ex-husband cheated on her and her anger towards him was somewhat reasonable, it was still wrong for her to want her ex-husband dead for it.
- It's possible that he divorced her and she just wasn't happy with the fact that he got partial custody over their kids.
- Even while requesting I.M.P to assassinate her ex-husband, she was very rude to them, such as dropping her purse onto Millie and Moxxie and booty-bumping Loona.
- She is shown to be homophobic, claiming her ex-husband's lifestyle is "heinous", and believed that he would "poison" their daughters with it.
- Since her ex-husband was shown to be living peacefully with his new partner and daughters, it's presumed that leaving his wife (taking her rude behavior and prejudice towards him into account) was a better decision than remaining with her.
- The heartwarming scene was enough for I.M.P to abandon the client's request due to Blitzø seeing his own family in the humans' and Moxxie not wanting to destroy a happy family, making the client look even more unreasonable in comparison.
- While waiting for I.M.P to finish the job, she constantly complained about how they ran their business, annoying Stolas to the point of telling her to shut up.
- After Stolas left, she read the book he'd been writing and doodling in, likening it to an erotic novel while calling it "sinful" and admitting that it gave her no sexual gratification.
- This ended up annoying Blizø enough to throw her out of the window, which is played for satisfaction.
Trivia[]
- Further reinforcing her Hate Sink status, she is referred as the "Karen Client" in the end credits, suggesting she was intended to be seen as a "Karen" stereotype that harasses workers while providing unreasonable demands.
- She is one of the three Hate Sinks in the Hellaverse to be homophobic, the other two being Crimson and Katie Killjoy.
- She is likely meant to mirror Stella, who is also a Hate Sink, as they are both vindictive mothers who send hitmen to kill their ex-husbands due to them both cheating on them with another man. The main difference between the two is Stella is motivated by extreme classism and racism while Karen is motivated by homophobia.
