The Patient: Charlie – Episode 6 – RECAP

September 11, 2023September 25, 2023 SkipTvAds

Episode 6 of The Patient shows Alan desperation, after everything he has gone through he still willing to change Sam and I say change because I don’t think he wants to help him, Sam needs more than therapy probably even medication all Sam wants is to go home so he is willing to do what ever it takes to get out of that room if that means change or trick Sam’s thoughts, some how he needs to find a way to make Sam think he is cured, sounds ridiculous but that’s all he needs, he doesn’t even need to actually cure Sam all he needs is for Sam to believe it.

Elias is dead, Sam killed him right in front of Sam and that’s perturbating him, both killing and watch some one die for the first time must be a high impact experience, worst part in this case for Alan is that he is the one trying to prevent it, trying to control Sam madness and in some way he failed, not because it was his responsibility but because he is the one trying to make Sam stop, he has been force into this situation, I wont say he has lost the war but did lost that battle forcing him to the extreme of going into his own reality. Its not strange for therapist to go to therapy, they are humans too and some use it as a way to expand their point of view and knowledge, the part that is a bit disturbing for Sam is that he is talking to his dead therapist in his mind trying to find ways to convivence Sam he is cured, Alan is talking to himself at the end of the day.

It has taken me a few weeks not say months to finish this mini series, with so many things that went out in the past two months this is not a priority for me but still have four episodes to watch, I really like Steve performance so far, everything around him is vague and seen him been the star of the show that so far only has three main characters plus he is out of his usual comedy character its amazing how good this mini series is so far considering all this things.

This is Charlie, unfortunately for Alan he is dead, he was Alan therapist but he is not the one talking to Alan at the moment, under extreme circumstances of pressure like the one Alan is experiencing at the moment with this situation that he is the prisoner of a serial killer who just killed some one in front of him its normal for a human to isolate into his own world, at least Alan is still conscious of the situation, the reflection of Charlie seems to have a more raw and open mind than Alan himself, during their conversation he basically said man up and get out of this situation alive, for Alan is not that hard since he explain Sam has the control of the environment and Alan holds no power over him but there seems to be some some level of empathy within Sam and that’s something Alan will have to exploit, make it grow.

Source

I remember seen on Mind Hunters, a Netflix Series, that serial killers do study Cops TV shows to not get caught, this is something Sam mention in the past, thats the reason why he have decided to burry Elias in his basement, he also had Alan help to dig the hole, this is the first time he brought one of his victims home and knows there is a chance if he throws Elias body on a street or alley, anywhere out side of his home, police can track him down, some how.

Source

Between this period of isolation, Alan paints the perfect picture of how he feels every time Sam calls him, he feels as a prisoner sentence to death without any chance to escape, I think on the next to episodes we will finally see Alan taking a shot at Sam, since the first episodes he had this fantasy of hitting Sam in his head with a vase but he feels he is too old and weak to fight Sam, at some point desperation will be so big that he will loose his cool and attack Sam, something that actually Charlie suggested.

Charlie suggested to basically throw Sam’s mother under the bus after Sam said he have tried everything he can to divert Sam from feeling angry, kill people and live in the past where he was abuse by his father, may be letting Sam know his mother had to do with his father abusing him because she did nothing about it or not enough would divide in half all this feelings and may be he could think it was not all his father fault, that could go both ways too, calm him down a bit or infuriate him more because both his parents abuse him? I don’t think Sam is going to forgive his father yet, that’s Alan second chance to make Sam forgive his father that would make him stop killing people.

Source

Alan keeps working on Sam’s empathy, one of the very few cards he has left, he knows there is some so he exploit it, he makes Sam believe that by throwing the body on a place that can be found will make he grow as a person, for letting Elias family to find the body and relief them from the suspense if he is alive or not, sounds stupid and only some one who has no conscience would think “I kill him but at least I let their family find his body” , some one with Sam’s mental health problem would think that way, there is no guilt within him. Alan came up with this idea to stick a note on Elias dead body so when they do the autopsy can find this not, hopefully is not too late. The note mentions Sam although not sure what are the next two words, then mention Alan son and daughter saying he loves them, Alan doesn’t know Sam address but at least should have put his last name something like “Sam Fortner kill him” and then his last name too “Alan Strauss please help kidnap” that why the police will start looking for Sam and find Alan.

Alan is starting to loose it, soon he will be in survivor mode beyond fear, there is nothing more dangerous than a man who has nothing too loose, right now he is in a process where he is starting to hallucinate based on the situation, he is starting to talk to his dead therapist, in this case his subcontinent that is telling him to go all in, take Sam by surprise and beat him up but in reality he don’t see himself having the courage to do so, this is something every human goes through when feeling start to accumulate until the pressure makes you blow up, this is Alan at the moment, when he comes back to earth he keeps trying to manipulate Sam to his advantage but his efforts to escape are still very vague, there will be confrontation soon, for a mini series with short screen time it is exciting and the short amount of film makes you want to see more, I have enjoy it so far but if you probably sit down and watch it in five or six hours wont be the same experience.

Drops of God: Legacy – Season 1 – Episode 6 – Recap

September 8, 2023September 25, 2023 SkipTvAds

Source

As every other Episode, Episode Six of Drops of God is a storm of mix feelings, at times its very confuse to understand what Alexander was thinking when he thought about all this test and contest, on one side I can see him as a mad man who just want to complicate his children life’s more than it is, he never spend time with them as a father when they were adults and now that he is dead may be he came up with this contest to make their life’s miserable or he was really a philosophical guy who truly wanted to expand their knowledge and give them the opportunity to continue with his business and legacy but wanted them to be prepare for what was next.

Camille at first was the little ugly duckling, she couldn’t smell or taste alcohol but always had that hidden talent, she could turn out to be a great sommelier, she proves himself on this episode because it was not about the taste or smell of the wine, it was the experience, during the series she and her father have mention how a wine can make you feel happy or sad, once she even said she heard music, I think that’s possible changing someone’s mood with wine or any other drink depending one what’s that make the person react is it the smell, taste or a combination of both, at the end its all a chemistry, the human body can be very impulsive and react different ways to certain combinations of flavor and smell so it was never about the fruits and flowers on the painting it was about the story behind both the painting and the wine Alexander choose to match the painting.

There is something that I should have seen coming and it was Luca interest on the Ledger Guide, on the previous episode he asks Camille to continue with it, I knew it was a great business for him but never though he was using Camille all this time just for the Ledger, I bought the story of how good of a friend he was for Alexander but the truth is that he was doing all this for his own benefit, he knew Camille had no chance against Issei so may be he thought is she wins great I get a hold at Alexander wine collection and she continues with the Ledger that was the first target but then if she doesn’t win at least get her to continue with the Ledger Guide so he can keep getting profits from the Ledger Guide also power as all the winemakers on the guide fear Alexander, at least that was the description given by Elisabetta, after the trip to Italy looking for this wine that match the flavors of the painting and understanding it was about the experience and not the flavor or smell, Camille also understood that the Ledger Guide was dangerous and hold too much power over wine makers so she didn’t want to continue it, she told Luca it was her final decision and this is when he who her his true face, got mad as fuck, yell at her, told her how he would make sure she get crush by Issei and loose, throw her out of his restaurant and show her he was manipulating her all this time.

Episodes are not more balance between Issei and Camille, at first it was all Camille but on this episode we get more drama from the Tomine Diamonds, with his father gone Issei start investigating the reasons and how his parents got together to find out his real father is Alexander, without physicals proof yet but things start to make sense so he put his mother Honka “on the horns of a dilemma” either she tells him the truth or he takes his father comb for a DNA test and figure out the truth by himself, she had to give in to keep it a secret just between them to avoid public shame since she is part of a very proud family.

Source

Issei goes savage mode on his mother Honoka, when she asks if he have heard anything from his father he answers “the one who’s dead or the one who’s disappeared?” probably the worst slam down of all episodes so far and its not because she lied to him, this is the result of many years of resentment, the way she treat his father and him too, how cold she is all the time like she doesn’t enjoy been with any of them, this when he threat her to take his father comb for a DNA test or she tells him the truth, she didn’t have to say a word after she took the comb from his hands so its true, Issei father is Alexander.

Source

Lucky for Issei life takes from him but also gives him happiness back, I don’t know how because I consider it too fast but may be he just like him, the way he talks, acts, cook, he has all the swag to pick up girls although Issei doesn’t talk too much but Yurika, the reporter that was covering his story now helping him to locate his father, falls for him and they match that day, it was not all dark clouds for Issei.

Source

Camille decided to go to Italy, Milan, since the painting his father choose for the contest is from Fede Galizia, she takes Lorenzo with her and stay at a local house that servers as motel, they ask the owner Elisabetta where they could find the Galizia’s house and she answer “…fascinating, a lot to learn” like she probably knew something they didn’t, but they got no where so Elisabetta told her to be persistent, Camille didn’t mean it the wrong way but then she push wine makers into let her taste their wines using the Ledger Guide name as a method of pressure so they all accept without asking many questions. When Elisabetta find out about it she was pissed at Camille and her father, saying they were bullies using the Ledger Guide power against wine makers but their thoughts change after Camille taste Elisabetta family wine and discover the real connection between the painting and a bottle of wine, it was Elisabetta’s family wine Casa dei Fossati, it was a great story how Alexander compare Elisabetta and her father bond with Fede and her father Nunzio, this two pair of father and daughter work together to produce a master piece, one in a bottle of wine and the other on a painting.

Source

Camille never saw this coming, she basically gets assaulted by Lucas after she insisted not to continue with the Ledger Guide, on her trip to Italy she finds out and think that the Guide have ruin many peoples life, it holds too much power probably same as his father felt there was a monopoly in France when he was trying to become a professional and exactly what force him to go to Japan to start a new market, Lucas goes all savage and tells Camille he will make sure she gets defeated by Issei but what he doesn’t know is that Issei finds out she is his step sister and that will probably bring them close and work together, Issei looks like a nice guy and honest so that’s probably how he will react when he tells Camille the truth about Alexander been their father.

The reason for the contest is now more clear than before with Issei confirm his father is Alexander, also the fact that Camille find out how powerful the Ledger Guide is, this was probably planned by Alexander too as its the same reason why he went to Japan and start a new market when there was a monopoly in France that would not let him grew his ideas probably he wanted his son and daughter to learn this and continue his legacy with a better direction, at first the contest look like a twisted plan to make them miserable and fight each other for a prize but now its looking like he want to bring them closer, he never had either the opportunity or the words to achieve this since he was push out by both Honoka and Marianne, Issei and Camille mothers, so he build and empire that will unite them in the future.

The Crowded Room : Exodus – Episode 1 – RECAP

June 9, 2023 SkipTvAds

Source

An introverted, unpopular, shy, frustrated and scared of the world young Dany gets arrested for a crime during the 70’s but its possible he didn’t do it and the police fears he was controlled by the real killer that might strike back.

I’m a sucker for serial killer movies, investigations and movies from other eras like in this case the 70’s, the moment I saw the trailer remind me of Mindhunter when Holden Ford a detective who started a thesis on how to build serial killer profile visited Charles Manson, the room, the fact that Dany was probably used as a tool to commit a crime I also like Tom Holland on the role of Dany, people are use to see him as Spider Man since that’s what he has been doing for the most part in the last six years he did Uncharted too but that was still an action movie, on Crowded Room is more about the mind game rather than an action movie for teen ager like Spiderman, Crowded Rom seems to be about exploring Dany’s thoughts about how lot of people that he knows tend to disappear but he is the only one staying, the first episode makes me curious and believe that he probably has two personalities and could be the reason why is not so easy to figure out what happen to everyone who disappear and why he was found on a house with blood on the walls and the floor, whose blood is that?.

The series will probably go back and forward on the time line to describe Dany before all this happen, the first episode started with him and Ariana chasing a guy who they want to kill but at the last moment when Dany had him in front of him he couldn’t pull the trigger and Ariana took the gun to blast the guy but only got her on the shoulder, at first I thought he got caught because of that murder attempt but it goes deeper than that and there is a lot he is not revealing yet during the interview with the agents at the police station.

The person doing the interview is Rya Goodwin, on the first episode it is not explain much who is her and why her but looks like she is a professor or that’s how she is known at the police station, still don’t know but she is in charge of interview Dany and profile him, figure out what really happen, the who and the why.

Source

Just looking at Dany makes me feel uncomfortable, the guy looks really troubled, like something deranged him, there is something that wont let him sleep, this is a shot at the train with Arianna before they try to murder a guy in the middle of the city in front of a lot of people, it almost look like he is on drugs at the moment to look that disturbed, many people do drugs before comiting a crime, the drug make them numb to the idea of what they are about to do

Source

This is Danny’s face, he froze when he saw the guy him and Arianna were going to kill, I’m sure he knew the guy something happen on that very moment, I’m starting to think this person could be his step dad that he had so many troubles with growing up he basically abuse him mentally or a friend from school, it had to be someone he thought he could kill and then when the moment came he couldn’t, I don’t think it had to do anything with the fact itself nothing to do with killing a person.

Arianna was more cold blooded and took the gun from Dany then starts shooting at the guy until she ran out of bullets, I think she ran out of bullets because she shoot the guy six times only one got him, people start screaming, sirens in the background and it seems Danny never saw Ariana again.

Source

Another very important character on all this is Yitzhak, he is from Israel and became neighbor with Dany a few years ago, the first time they met Dany and his friends from school came to Yitzhak house to say hi as the house was empty for some time but everything change for Dany the day some bully was kicking his ass, Dany was always picked at school by everyone even adults so he saw a kinda of father figure on Yitzhak, not much has been said about Yitzhak or Ariana so far but that’s just my first impression of him. Latter and I say latter because I do not know exactly how things happen after Dany and Arianna failed to kill their target, how things went down but looks like Yitzhak didn’t approve what they did, the police probably follow Dany to the house and he gave in after they surround the house.

Source

Besides Dany there is this other character I’m very interested in, her name Rya Goodwin, she is the one working with the police to figure out what happen, where is Ariana and why a lot of people close to Dany disappear too? did he kill them?. The interviews go for days, they didn’t mention it but you can see Ryan with different cloth between scenes, she also mention that the year Yitzhak move to the neighborhood there were some assaults.

There are several scenes, memories that go through Dany’s mind as the interviews continues, mostly things that he is not telling Rya yet or he straight up says he doesn’t want to talk about, on the first interview Rya starts with Dany from scratch because he is no snitch so he wont rat on Ariana or Yitzhak, thats clear for her and keep pushing or threating Dany with jail wont do the trick so she decides to psychoanalyze Dany and his story, they start from zero, how and when did he met Ariana and Yitzhak, there starts the story of how he was picked at school, how things were very bad at home with his step father, his childhood story but nothing really relevant to the murder attempt, Ariana or Yitzhak.

Source

Dany and his friends were selling weed to make some money and basically sustain their vice, but one day he got caught with a joint at school so he ran home as fast as he could to hide and a group of bully led by a guy who try to snitch on Dany but then got suspended when it didn’t work was looking for him and start chasing him until they caught him on the street in front of Yitzhak house, they start beating him to the ground until Yitzhak came up and safe him, then invite Dany in to clean up and that day he also met Ariana.

Everything is narrated by Dany and Rya, when they get to this part there were a few key questions that Rya ask Dany, why would you think Yitzhak help you? what was your first impression of Ariana? Rya through the entire interview is trying to insinuate that they use Dany for their own benefit, to accomplish certain task on their agenda, there are some flash back pictures one was Ariana playing with a gun in the house with Dany and another Yitzhak covering Dany mouth so he shut up probably some one was in the house looking for them so there is a lot to discover.

Dany keeps telling Rya he doesn’t know where is Ariana or Yitzhak but for sure there is a lot of blood and killing he knows about but probably Rya is not asking the right questions yet, she again threaten Dany with jail but he is no fool, he knows they cant do that, yes they found blood and a bullet hole on a window but there is no gun, but he did admit he was with Ariana and attempt to kill that man although he point the gun at him but never pull the trigger, I’m not sure if that’s consider murder attempt hmmm

The Crowded Room is doing great at tv series sites like IMDB or RTT, so far a 7/10 on IMDB that’s very good considering that in real life that’s an 8/10, because its Tom Holland the main actor I think this is going to take a lot of positive reviews and people wont be bitching that much about the time line, going back and forward, Class of 09 is the same thing and the internet bitch about it so hard so who knows why, the production and music are very good at setting the tone of the series, I like how from episode one a lot of things are hiding its like little crumbs that you need to put together and then you get to know the truth and some times during the way things shift, you cant watch this series without been focus because you will get lost easy and end up rewinding to understand what’s happening, the first three episodes where release but as usual I like to watch one episode per day or week depending on the format of the tv series, totally recomend The Crowded Room, Apple+ keeps releasing bangers.

A Small Light : Scheißfeld – Season 1 – Episode 5 – RECAP

June 8, 2023 SkipTvAds

Source

World War II and the German occupation of Amsterdam is taking the best out of Jan and Miep, it starts to separate them as they try to do their best at keeping friends and family safe but Jan feels that his country needs him.

From the little I know from the book Margo and Anne are big part of it and on this episode we get more about Anne with Miep, how Miep not only keep them safe she also keep the girls hopes and dreams alive but there are stressful moments more now that Jan is getting sucked in into the resistance and this feeling that his country is calling for his service like he has an obligation to stand up against the abusement of the German soldiers against everyone but Miep has a good heart and always find the way to keep things balanced and the right words to give the girls hope that one day things will go back to normal and they will enjoy again their freedom and will have all this opportunities to be independent and in the case of this episode be in love and get married.

Its natural for humans to develop feelings when they are confined to the same space, it can go both ways either love or hate depending on how compatible are, in the case of Anne she is just too young and don’t know what love is same as she doesn’t know what is rejection and failure, things that anyone will experience through life as you get in love with someone until you find the correct match, Anne could be too intense some times and this tip over Miep in a moment of stress and bring her back down to earth in desperation of seen how her husband barely talk to her anymore and just disappear during the day knowing he might be working on dangerous missions for the resistance but to protect her cant give her any details, her worst fear is that one day Jan never comes back home.

Jan proves to the resistance how determine he is and committed this cause to the point that he is willing to kill enemies in cold blood, so is that the resistance members put him to the task and he pass, he is now a valuable asset who not only will do anything to protect his country but has also collected important intel for the resistance.

Source

Anne has her first crush, her first love, she has a crush on Peter a kid living with them, the Van Pels son, but she is too young to know what is true love so this could mean nothing just that she is spending too much time with him on a very close space problem is that Anne doesn’t have the best communication with her mother Edith not because they cant stand together but Anne is too wild some times and doesn’t want to listen to her mother, she only wants to protect her, Miep gets put in charge by Edith, Anne’s mother, to control and guide Anne on this matter making sure that she doesn’t get crushed by deception when things doesn’t go they way she think love is.

It must be hard, crushing to be that age and not only get in love but everything, stay under lock down for so long, not been able to be a teenager, know more people, develop, expand their minds, live life, because a war they didn’t ask for and have no involvement prevent them from all this, confinement can turn the most fierce lion into a kitten.

Source

Jan is deep with the resistance now and Miep starts to feel that they don’t share anymore, Jan goes out comes back late and fall asleep, not because he doesn’t love Miep anymore but he has been blind folded by his hate against the German invasion to his country, Jan feels the need to do something important for his country and help defeat them, the problem is that he doesn’t see that this is bigger than him, bigger than a small resistance group and he should evaluate his priorities, without knowing he is moving away from his wife, anyone who is married or has been on a serious relationship knows that this type of conversations most of the time are the tip of the iceberg, this is the signal when your wife tells you “we never spend time or talk about….” red flag and needs attention.

Source

Miep is a very straight forward women, she doesn’t hide her feelings, she doesn’t hide when she doesn’t like something or some one, she is in your face all times but cant handle Jan’s silence anymore, she is afraid to loosing him and this is one of the many times she comes straight up and ask him to cut the bullshit and talk to her, she wants her husband back.

Source

Jan and Miep must be the most in love couple during World War II, since Miep is an immigrant to The Netherlands, she was considered undesirable by the Germans and her passport was revoked so her only chance to stay legally was to get married, she was desperate and didn’t want to leave Amsterdam, she ask Mr. Frank for his advice and it was obvious, marry the dutch, marry Jan. In Miep style she runs where Jan is working, fertilizing a field with manure, a shit field, there she ask Jan to marry him and explain him the situation too, they were both on the same plan but she thought he was fooling around with her to a point when she told him she can do better than him, it was all crazy but crazy love for each other. Big problem, they got married after her passport was revoked basically committing fraud but the judge who marry them didn’t notice the seal on her passport as in the last minute Jan distract him so he didn’t notice and get them legally married. This shows how close Miep and Jan are, no wonder why she is desperate to get Jan back and focus on their life and not on the war or the resistance.

Source

One night after having an argument with Jan after she found a pistol on his underwear drawer, Miep comes back and Anne as usual had an argument with her mother about what she feels for Peter, Miep that night had no patience for Anne and blew up, crushing poor Anne’s dream of love, telling her the truth of why she married Jan so quick and that love could fail her as its failing for her and Jan, latter Anne’s mother Edith talk to Miep and she vents out about whats going on at home. That night during the argument Jan told Miep they were going to execute a plan that was dangerous and he could never come home to that she ask him to don’t go if he loves her, Jan goes out anyway.

Source

He had enough of the Germans and want to hurt them, Jan cant stand the soldiers on the street and how they treat Jews so he asks Willem the leader of the resistance group is working with to give him a meaningful task, he wants to hurt them, he wants to stop them so Willem comes with this mission to kill a important German soldier but it was a setup to see if Jan was for real willing to do anything for his countrymen.

Going back to the cover image of this picture, the night Anne was arguing with Miep a big explosion, it was the resistance who blew up the Civil Registry Office to get rid of all the records, names, address of their countrymen, Jews and immigrants so it was harder for the Germans to go after them, that night Miep could not find Jan and was desperate, Casmir takes Miep to the bar where the resistance hang out but everyone they ask for Jan said they didn’t know him, news came out that many have been arrested, killed and sentence to death but now news about Jan.

Source

Next day when Miep came to work, hopeless, desperate, devastated, there was a one word letter on her desk, it was in German, Scheißfeld, she knew it was Jan telling her where he was, when she got there the field was now full of flowers, the same shit field where she/he propose to get married, Jan didn’t go to the mission because she ask him but now has to lay low, many have been arrested that can snitch on him

What a great story, this is one of the best drama tv series I have seen, none of the episodes disappoint so far, the production is exceptional, the actors that do Miep, Anne, Otto, Jan are great, there is nothing I can say I don’t like about this series and this episode certainly is one of the best, from time to time you get this series like the Mandalorian where all episodes are a bomb, on this episode the story diverts more to Jan and Miep instead of the Franks and the war, we get more details about this couple, about their struggle, about how much they willing to risk for their friends and their love, incredible story, anyone who reads the plot might think that there will be a lot of talking about the war and the Germans but its not, this is the story of how a couple who fall in love during war and is willing to do anything to help those who are innocent and persecuted by the Germans.

The Patient: Pastitsio – Episode 5 – RECAP

June 5, 2023 SkipTvAds

Source

Episode five proves more my theory that Sam kills people because he wants attention and is a little bitch but then when he get the attention from others don’t know what to do or react, him killing people is a reaction to his impotency to confront his father now as an adult, when he was a kid he couldn’t but now that he has enough age to do it his father is not around anymore so he just take on other people who bother him in some way turning him into a bully, I know this is not his fault but he also doesn’t do that much to take responsibility and act as a child, may be that trauma never let him grow up and inside he still feels like that child that was abused by his father but now inside the body of a grown man. Alan was making some progress with Sam since he got him to do a few things to get distracted but fall into what I think is a mistake, he initially got Sam to stay away from Elias, his victim, to distract his mind from that impulse to kill Elias but then ask Sam to bring Elias so they can have a session? that doesn’t make any sense to me, everything is so soon for it to work as Alan was expecting.

On this episode we also see Cadence, Sam’s mom, for the first time getting control of the situation but at the same time its just so lame how she would think a simple hit on the risk would stop a serial killer, she also needs therapy, both been in jail or some kind of institution away from society until they get better, but this is not 100% her fault neither as she is/could also be mentally and emotional affected by everything that happen with Sam’s father, this family is an entire mess, keep in consideration that we have no information or feedback from what exactly and why Sam’s father abuse him, I give it the benefit of the doubt since Sam and Cadence are not mentally well, you cant believe everything people say.

Source

Sam goes visit his ex wife Mary, she seems nice and pretty, welcome him and invite him insight to talk but she look scared when Sam told her he was taking therapy, may be she thought “finally” or probably he had taken therapy in the past and didnt work, my point is that she doesnt seem too sure to be next to him but still got him inside and try to talk to Sam, he look nervous and the total opposite of what he told Alan he was with Mary, he came up with any topic and stay quiet most of the time, it was Mary who kept trying to be open to him, there were a few moments I thought we was going to openly tell her why he is in therapy and even that he has a guy kidnap, something crazy but it didnt happen, that would turn up this episode so much. I think Sam lie to Alan about Mary or may be things have change so much for him that he is not the same around her.

Back at Sam’s home where Elias and Alan remain prisoners, Elias is trying to get Alan to team up with him and knock out Sam, he offer Alan to bring him into the therapy session and then he would throw himself at Sam so Alan can beat him but the answer to that is obvious and I already know it, Alan wont do it, he wont risk it because he knows Sam is stronger, if something goes bad its Elias fault since he is the one that came up with the idea but he feels there is no hope for him.

Alan and Elias had this moment where he ask Elias to bring a message to his family in case he dies but I think that was just give some hope to Elias saying he is the one that is going to escape the situation alive.

Source

After Sam gets back from Mary’s place he start talking with Alan and tells him how it didn’t work, talking to Mary didn’t make him think different about Elias but I know that was not Alan point, he wanted to show Sam how he can stay away from Elias and eventually forget about him for some time but Sam wants results for yesterday like its as simple as taking a pill. Sam got angry and was going to kill Elias but Sam calls Cadence and all it took was two claps and a “Get back here” for Sam to stop, WTF why no body gave Alan the Sam manual where it says the instructions, Sam definitely still has this child complex and proof is that his mom still can send him to his room and ground him.

This episode is also proof that been on the edge every five minutes that Sam is going to kill Elias is what keeps this exciting but at some point its getting old so the writer needs to make a decision quick to keep viewers interested and its a very obvious one.

Source

After his mother told him to go to sleep and send him to his room, after some time Sam comes back down to talk with Alan, he had this object on his hand that I thought it was a key, may be a key to free Alan but it look like he didn’t notice because if he did he would be interested and ask Sam to free him up, instead he start explaining Sam none of this is his fault and its a reaction to all those bad memories with his father and how he is taking it with the rest of the world, how none of this people are trying to harm him but he feels this way as an excuse to explode angry at them when he is really angry at his father.

I don’t know if Alan for real try to make Sam understand this by himself and brought Elias into the session or he was going with Elia’s plan to take down Sam.

Source

Alan is suppose to be a well known therapist with lots of experience but I think the situation and pressure is making him take wrong decisions, Sam told him that bringing Elias to the session wouldn’t work, it only make things worst for him, you have a dog barking at you none stop every time you get close to the gate and he just got his chain loose what do you expect if you get inside the yard. Sam makes Alan bring Elias in and all it took was Elias to start crying and stuttering because he couldn’t manage the pressure of been blind by duct tape in front of a guy who wants to kill him, Sam jumps Elias and choke him to death, that’s how we got to the cover picture of this post.

After this episode I think Sam needs guidance but with an iron fist, he needs someone who can control him and tell him what to do, he also needs to stay away probably lock down in a facility where he can rehabilitate and get over this trauma, keep getting therapy with his mother too but it would depend if they both want it because both of the are acting very irresponsible even his mother knowing his son is a murder, as for Alan he is not handling well the pressure even if he appears to be but the truth is that he is starting to take desperate decisions and that’s why Elias is dead but cant blame him, going through all that he cant stop thinking about his family and the possibility that he wont see them again, most of the episodes are worth watching packed with intensity, stress, keeping me thinking is he going to kill him? is it now? is Alan next? but now we get to the point that Sam finally killed someone and in front of Alan so will this become a regular thing for them?

The Patient: Company – Episode 4 – RECAP

June 4, 2023 SkipTvAds

Source

I think Alan is starting to make some progress with Sam, on this episode Alan tries his best to keep Sam distant from his victim, I think I mention this on the previous episode, to overcome this kind of impulse you need to physically stay away from it, confront it doesn’t work for everyone at first, some times confront it make it worst since not everybody works the same and the subject may lack the strength to prevent himself to fall into the same steps, for Sam staying away from the victim, staying busy works the best. Alan is starting to test the waters of trust with Sam to the point where he tells Sam what to do and then flinch but the second time comes with more authority when he tells Sam to go to work and he notice how Sam took his direction, for Sam to get better he needs to obey Alan instructions since he is the expert and Alan reminds him of that “you brought me in because I’m the expert, trust me” that was Alan words when Sam was getting very very close to loose it. There are times when I see the episode from another perspective and think Sam is a bitch, needy mf who probably like to bully others, he says that he wants to punish them for how they do things like the guy he has right now he bend a few rules so he needs to be punish but Sam probably either attack him from the back or the guy cant defend himself so he is this kind of avenger on his head but he is just a abusive guy who makes an excuse that his father beat him up when he was a kid and now has this compulsive disorder to kill people who are out of line on this world but at the same time he just keep bitching about it and the way he walks or how he stop for a min when Alan ask him to go to work, open his mouth and stop like “OMG OMG I CANT OMG I CANT”, different than other three episodes I’m starting not to like the way Domhnall is developing the Sam character at least for now.

Another thought about Alan, he is really starting to struggle with how Sam at times could be some calm, smile and openly talk about other things like music but then be so violent and abusive, how he brought Elias Petraki his victim to the point it disturb him and cant rest, I could think his Sam’s mother might have to do with it too because how could you live with a serial killer even though its your son without stopping him or at least get someone to help him but not like they have Alan chain to the floor.

Source

Time locked up and chain to the floor plus Sam behavior where some times eh can be gentle, funny, talk about community, love, have fun, all those things that contradict what he is currently doing, systematically killing people, planing how to do it without remorse, all that is taking the best part of Alan to the point he cant sleep he cant rest well and who can when you are kidnap, force to provide therapy to a guy that is only bitching about how he cant stop killing people and how he is the judge of those out of line in life who are bending rules or not doing things as he see fit.

Source

Inside Sam twisted mindset he must be very tough to kill a guy who only took advantage of the system without really making any harm to him, that’s not an excuse to kidnap someone and wanting to kill him besides they guy is tight up blind folded so how is he going to kill him, at such disadvantage I don’t see how that goes hand to hand with though man Sam. Alan still finds the patience and time to focus on the things that matter and tries to control Alan, he is making progress by keeping him away from his victim, at least this time as describe by Sam, he did stop before killing his victim and that’s why he brought it home although this is the clear scenario of someone who is only looking for attention, a man who only seeks blood would not act like this although he is looking for help that’s a positive sign, we might argue that’s how and unbalance person acts and why he is mentally sick.

Source

Alan convince Sam to go to work he try to give him an order and felt scared of how Sam would react, he at first flinch but then repeat himself when he notice it did work. Sam goes to work kicking and bitching how he cant do it, Alan is now talking with Elias, Sam’s victim, they restaurant manager that he kidnap, they talking about whats going to happen, the guy is shitting bricks and crying, then this is another twisted character that needs therapy or be in jail, Sam’s mother comes down probably heard them talking but she comes down with a metal bar, looks like fire place poker if that’s the name, what are her intentions to wack them? shut them off? defend herself? after all they just talking no direct harm to her, could we see her attack Alan in the future? She keeps talking about how Sam feels sorry, how he wants to stop but that’s not of Alan interest, he keeps sucking information out of her trying to understand why Sam feels and acts this way to guide him or even “cure” him and may be get out of this situation alive.

Source

Something that I like about this mini series is the format, this are very short episodes but for it to work it has to be intense when the main characters are on the same room, that is Sam and Alan, every time Sam shows up its either Alan wanting to kill him or Sam wanting to kill Elias, after a few sentences some one has to think or talk about murder and be very close to it and then stop, at some point this is going to change, from pictures and the trailer I know Sam beat up Alan once but I don’t want to spoil it, this is why this mini series is good although as you can tell on this episode I had enough of Sam complains.

Sam comes back from work and he looks tired, Alan had this call with him a the moment he wanted to come back home and killed Elias but Alan manage to keep him at work that probably took some effort from Sam, like controlling himself is taking a lot of his energy but at least he keeps coming back to talk to Alan so all this effort of Alan keeping him away from the victim is taking effect.

Source

Towards the end of the episode Alan confirm a few theory I had about Sam and its that he attack people from the back so the though guy story falls down here, Alan is now ordering Sam to do things to keep him away from Elias, just as he order him to go to work he now told him to go see his ex wife since that might keep his mind distracted away from Elias and at the end tells him to trust him because he is the expert.

Elias once told Alan “this guy must really trust you” since he mention his hands were free, Alan has been trying to get Sam to unchain him since day one and tell him to trust him this time but I don’t think he will ever do it, Sam knows the minute he unchain Alan that bird goes out the window.

Alan therapy and guidance is starting to take effect on Sam, he is now ordering Sam to do things to keep his mind busy and away from Elias, the restaurant manager he kidnap and want to kill, not only Alan is telling Sam what to do to avoid killing Elias but also tells him to TRUST HIM!! this is going to be a key factor so he can make his attempt to escape, to be honest I don’t think he will be able to, I haven’t finish the end of this mini series at the moment I write this post but I think the odds are not in Alan favor, he is older, its two against one, Sam and his mother, plus he is chained to the floor, I don’t see how he can escape alive alone, probably if he helps Elias they can join forces to get out but someone is going to die at the end, also I don’t see this as a gore series so I don’t think Sam is going to be doing the killing because if he does it has to be very very violent although a Alan character would be tone down and more suited to the mood of the series.

A Small Light : Motherland – Episode 3 – RECAP

May 23, 2023 SkipTvAds

Source

Miep and her husband Jan have become really good at hiding people, they have now added to their belt hiding their tenant’s grand kids after their father got arrested at the train station but they have also got very good at taking risks, the nerves you need to have to do what they have done so far, sneaking people and supplies right in front of German Officers, lying to their face but I think the most dangerous thing they have done is trust other people that help them, that first step is the most dangerous having to trust someone you don’t know, someone who could be working for the Germans and putting everything at risk with a single decision.

I sense soon Jan is going to become more than just a messenger for the resistant, I think during those times it all works like a ladder that he climb with every mission he accomplish, he has now gather papers and even safe kids that are not his because he was ask to cooperate, soon he might have to do something more risky all this without telling Miep, if things go south for him the moment Miep finds out she will be devastate feeling helpless because she didn’t know anything of what he was doing and for who.

Like it was not enough that they taking all this risks for Mr. Frank, friends and family now a wolf step to their door, Mr. Tony Ahlers shows up, a man who is part of the German Party NSB has come to collect after he heard Mr. Frank talking about the the war and how bad it would end for Germans, basic blackmail but Mr. Frank cant pay him now, Tony is putting pressure on Miep and the rest of her co workers to give in Mr. Frank, things will get intense soon, this man wont go away that easy.

Source

Jan has officially started working with the resistance, this is making him become more comfortable at taking risks but there are times when he just want to shit bricks of how scare he is, after watching today episode I think it would not be strange for him to get killed since he is getting more expose going out there getting things done for the resistance this increase the possibility of him getting caught, as he become more effective his boss will assign new missions to him probably more difficult than the previous one but Jan is also taking benefits from the resistance so you can say its a fair trade? not sure because he we think about it Miep and Jan had no obligation to help others, they doing it because they want it and is the right thing to do but its very rare the people that will put their life on the line just to help others and do the right thing, that’s quality in a human but some times taking excessive risk can be foolish.

Source

At the Frank’s hiding place things are not going very well, confinement is taking the best out of them, in my case during the pandemic having my two kids with us at the apartment was not hard because they are still little but having two teenagers in such small place might be harder, been on house arrest plus the fear that you put yourself there because they are looking for you makes it harder for everyone, there is also the fact that they have a guess family and a friend so every fight or argument is heard by everyone, there is no privacy and at some point someone will give their opinion on the matters discuss without been ask too, making things harder for everyone, its just pure madness and chaos, Anne is constantly arguing with her mother and Mr. Frank have to deal with them the best he can.

Source

Going through the line of events, remember how dangerous is to trust people you don’t know but have no option because you are desperate and need help, this is Jan who was send to pick up some papers from an apartment raided by German Officers, the guy who send him to pick up the papers is suppose to help him hiding his tenant grand kids, see how none of this people are friends or family or had no tights to them but he is still a good man trying to safe lives, he was told papers, a package in a drawer but actually was a kid, this entire saga of taking risks at some point will led him to think he can do things and that could get him caught, lucky for him this time he wasn’t and was able to retrieve the package.

Source

Hermine, that’s Miep real name, she was also rescue given to a Dutch family to hide her, when she arrive she knew no Dutch and that’s one of the reasons she was so close to Casmir one of her step brothers, funny how her step parents at the start of the series wanted her to marry Casmir, he was the only one who speak German at the house when she arrive and gave her the name Miep because Hermine sounded like an old lady name, they became very close and only talk German at home so others cant understand them, Casmir is having a hard time with the Germans too as he is homosexual, German regime is also against homosexuals at the time so he may have to go in hiding if he cant control himself, Miep tries to explain him this but he doesn’t want to listen reason, he knows Miep has a secret but she wont tell, not even Casmir, must be hard to lie to love ones and keep such secret but then its your and others lives on the line.

This is one of those series I have no complains at all, usually I’m a fan of long series where you have five to eight seasons but with this couple of Mini Series I have been watching like Florida Man, Swarm, The Patient, Obsession I’m starting to like the format, is mostly pure action packed on each episode, not necessarily kicking and shooting action but on A Small Light is the constant suspense of whats going to happen next and if things will continue end in favor of the good guys, how Miep and Jan start to get all this value contacts, people form the resistance but their first German threat has knock on their door with Mr. Tony Ahlers looking for Mr. Frank to collect.

I just notice I have been using Season 1 on previous two episodes and their cover image, Im still working on formats and getting use to blog, only my fourth month.

THE PATIENT Season 1 Episode 3 RECAP - www.skiptvads.blog — THE PATIENT Season 1 Episode 3 RECAP

Source

Alan is getting more desperate to get out of Sam house and notice someone is walking upstairs so he obviously start calling for help until Sam’s mother came down, Candace. Sam is not putting any effort into moving forward with the therapy or freeing Alan, I can understand someone can feel that impotent and disturbed by his past, after all it seems Sam’s father did beat him for no reason based on his testimony and now his mother back it up although he lied to Alan the first time so moving with caution is Alan motto from now on until he finds out the truth, Sam just want Alan to fix his brain like a mechanic change a broken part but its not that simple until he put a serious effort into stop killing people, same as his father beat him without a proper reason just because he is the authority now Sam practice the same principle that just because someone acts fishy or think they slick and can do things their way then he thinks he is there to make things right and correct them, the problem is that he takes “justice” by his hand and ends up killing people, plus he has become good at it, on previous episode he show Alan a box full of things he got from other victims like watches, wallets, etc and the police still hasn’t caught them. Alan is trying a new approach bringing his mother in to try to help Sam but I really think he is just trying to manipulate the situation and get out as soon as possible, he knows Sam can kill him in any moment if he feels things are not going his way and diminish or disrespected in any way.

Source

Episode starts with Candace, Sam’s mother, going down stairs and meeting with Dr. Alan after he asks who is walking upstairs, she is aware of what’s going on and knows that Sam kills people from time to time, at first she asks for Mary, I wonder if she is really on Sam’s side or she is also trying to manipulate him some how, when she asks for Mary, Alan tells her he cant discuss that, Candace said she read Alan’s book so who really got Alan into the house was it just Sam idea or was it mainly by Candace, I would ask this questions to myself because under this type of circumstances nothing is safe, a man who kill people just because he doesn’t agree with their behavior, not necessary that they did anything illegal and a mother who is aware of this and let his son chain someone to a bed in her house. Everything on this picture is wrong, from start to finish and Alan’s life is on the line.

Source

Alan constantly keeps trying to convince Sam that at his age he is no thread to him and shouldn’t have him chain to the bed, its obvious that the second he has to escape he will, he even have a vision where he cut Sam’s throat, Alan keep nagging about the chain will eventually get him beat up, Sam wont let him go until he feels that he has been cure and that could take months or most likely will never happen, his brain could be damage to a point of no return, from what I have seen so far more than just therapy he may need medication to cool off for some time and stay away from all that anger and people that may make him feel that way, been on that job expose him to that temptation, he is supervising others, making inspections, meaning he is the one who says what’s don’t right and what not, the only option for Alan is to escape since I don’t think he will be able to make Sam feel he has been cured and who knows if he still kill Alan because he knows everything he has done.

Source

Sam has this trauma that he think having therapy with his mother is not productive but also I sense he feel ashamed of doing therapy with her, may be makes him feel he is not the alpha, after all that’s part of the reason why he kill those who are out of line based on his believes, he is the alpha and have to show them the way, probably same at home he is the alpha and needs to protect his mother and he is the only one responsible for his actions. Candance as a mother she doesn’t want anything bad to happen to Sam but who knows to what level could she over protect him in the past, they both say his dad use to beat him up and one day he left but why did he left? that’s a question without answer so far.

Source

Another reason why Alan wont be able to cure Sam at least for now, its because Sam wants immediate results and he starts to put himself at risk of feeling that anger, during the session with his mother Alan ask Sam when ever he feels that anger and need to kill someone tell himself he wont do it to protect his mother from anything that can hurt her, if he goes away that would hurt her, Alan failed there and I don’t know if it was intentional to expose Sam to get caught but Sam does exactly that, goes to a restaurant where there is this manager he already has his eye on, wait for his food and park outside but the rage is stronger than him and surprise surprise Sam kidnap the restaurant manager, its a no brainer that he need to stop going outside and remain isolated from the world, right now he is a menace for the rest of the world and himself, that’s why people get locked up for the first months when trying to rehabilitate, this is a man who has become good at killing people, hunts them, feel the need to show them a lesson, just talking wont do the trick. Sam brings the restaurant manager to his place and locks him up next to Alan while he watch how Sam drags the guy into the next room and secure him to chair with duct tape.

As short as this episodes are it feels satisfying, there are not many details or characters, so far only what four people but still there is that suspense of what will happen next, some of the things are predictable but in what order will it happen? Alan wants to escape and also kill Sam if he gets the chance, Sam want to stop murdering people right now at least that’s what he says but for how long he can keep up with Alan nagging about the chain, Sam’s mother helping him or he not feeling Alan is trying to cure him if he keeps feeling this way at some point he will snap and think either Alan is treating him like a fool or doesn’t want to help him at all and just trying to manipulate him to escape.

Obsession (2023) – Episode 4 – Personal Thoughts

May 10, 2023 SkipTvAds

Source

Since I was already on the mood for an obsessed fatal attraction I decided to finish watching Obsession, the trailer of this mini series is such a spoiler so I knew some one was going to die and I think that’s part of the magic of this affair theme series, some one has to cry, some one has to get hurt and some one has to die, I have to say that even though the affair comes to and end in the first five minutes of the episode I was front running disappointment, I was surprised and worried that it ended so quick now what? is this some bullshit end? but no, I think the rest of the episode went really well with details of Anna, she was now the focus, it was important to know her reaction, part of her past and I was on the right path as how she operates, she does this, she ends relationships, she plays with fire all the time that’s when Peggy told her “you have done worst things before” Anna is a viper who doesn’t care for anyone and when shit hits the fan she just run away.

Other than been a drama this mini series show how dangerous is for me to be obsess with a woman, its been said that woman they usually fall in love once in a life time but men can have same feelings over and over for different woman, tend to grief less when relationships are over and become the DUMBEST CREATURE ALIFE when completely fall for a woman that at the same time can forget once the relationship is over and repeat the cycle, a large amount of men have affairs and as anything that can turn into an addiction the problem is knowing when to stop, the reason why I say this is because anyone can make a mistake usually when men are young have affairs because they lack experience on how to control themselves but with age comes wisdom, anyone who learn from past mistakes should know better.

For William, Jay his son, was not only Anna fiancé but he has turn into his competition for her, we talking that he doesn’t see Jay with the eyes of a father anymore and for a man to act that way and have no remorse of what may happen if his affair come to light, that has to be a sad, selfish monster, I can understand him ending his marriage after all but feeling that way for his own blood, his own and only son that goes way far beyond of been wrong or stupid.

RTT : https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/obsession_2023

This series did very poorly in terms of reviews, I’m not sure why, yes this is an affair theme series, nothing new, nothing that has not been done before and anyone who watch it should know what to expect, production and actors are on point, its not a blockbuster or AAA series but good enough to spend some hours watching.

Source

Direct continuation from where we left last episode, William was desperate to be with Anna again, after celebrating with his son Jay for his engagement with Anna, William is going to meet with her and Jay found strange that he said “learn to love the questions” something only Anna had said to him so Jay decided to follow his dad because he felt he was going to meet Anna, he didn’t have any proof or anything concrete that would tell him so and still follow him after pure instinct. Jay sees his father enter the building of Peggy’s apartment and he knew what was going to happen, he calls his mother trying to short talk but doesn’t tell her what’s going on, that was the last time Ingrid heard his son, before Jay got into the building he was about to cry, nervous, scared of what he was going to discover.

Source

Jay gets to the apartment, he heard Anna moaning as he is having sex, knock on the door and decided to force his way in after no body answer to find Anna blind folded with her hands tied and William fucking he from behind, this was a huge shock for him, steps back, tries to hold from the stairs railing but slips and falls straight to the lobby stairs, it was an immediate death, Anna is shock and almost didn’t see what happen as she took off the blind fold when he slips and William ran downstairs still naked, screaming, crying, but there is nothing to do after such impact against concrete stairs, surprise surprise Anna gets dressed and runs away while William sits on the stairs, police and paramedics come in and take Jay’s body.

Source

Up next we will start to measure how stupid is William, the man goes back home, how could you go back home after what happen, one thing is having and affair get caught and end the relationship ok fine you go back and pick up your things but in this case his son died because his father had an affair with his fiancé, come on men, you should never ever put a foot on that house again, you should consider yourself banish from their life’s, indirectly William is Jay’s murder, he needed to let Ingrid and his daughter some time for things to cool down a bit and then figure out the terms of how things will end between Ingrid and him, find out how he will keep a relationship with his daughter but this man is so blind that decided to throw everything away for Anna.

Source

At Jay’s funeral, William father in law told him something that must has hurt him but it actually didnt, he said Jay always tried to imitated William but was not close and yet his best skill was not been like William, latter on Anna’s mother talk to William and reveal the truth about Anna, she always run away, she ruin things for others looking after her happiness only, selfish, reckless, to then just run away but William kept looking for her.

Source

After a few days Anna is trying to get over the situation without much success, she is staying at a hotel next to the beach, chilling at the pool was having a short conversation with a couple who was also staying at the hotel, when they ask how she was doing Anna answers with the truth “my fiancé just died because I was having an affair with his father, find out about it, slip down and die” , short version, then walks away but William found her at that hotel, after some moment together at least without having sex she finally show some remorse and tell William they have done a lot of pain, he answers back that’s its already done, so basically fuck it he is dead we are alive, such a sick bastard, for me this is what officially sentence the episode but after all Anna and William are two selfish bastards, one thing is having an affair but another is having an affair with your son’s fiancé.

Now that its over and we know the outcome some may say what’s the difference of having an affair with your sons fiancé, after all she is another woman but its not that she is your sons fiancé, is that he is your son, I can really care less for Anna but for a father your sons and daughters should be irreplaceable that’s your blood, he came to this world because of you and his mother, how could you make his suffer that way, there are things in life that you just cant even think about it, just thinking about it is totally wrong, it was a shocking story, even though this is nothing new and with society now days going downhill this situations are seen more often in real life but I think this series did a good job at bringing it to the screen.

Florida Man : The Chain – Episode 3 – RECAP

May 7, 2023May 21, 2023 SkipTvAds

Source

I like series that go back and forward in time it makes you try to figure out whats next and some times trick you into assuming things and getting to conclusions that latter on are wrong, the story and the characters are not that interesting, actors are OK but its mostly about figuring out whats going to happen next, almost everyone has a fight with each of the characters, Moss with Mike, Mike with his Dad, Delly with Mike and the most recent Iris with Mike, few of them are actually friends so that’s the part that keeps me watching Florida Man from time to time, a series I basically use to fill gaps anytime I don’t have anything to watch but its still a solid 7/10, Delly is someone who only thinks about what satisfy her, I have never believe she loves Mike for real he is just her escape vehicle from Moss and any other wrong decision she made and now he can help her reset and start from scratch with the gold they are about to scoop, the truck is on a crater under water and everything is setup to have a crane pull it up, one thing they don’t know the guy operating the crane is on bail for robbing a jewelry store.

RTT: https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/florida_man

From score on RTT you can tell this is a series that a large average viewer audience would find as a good series to watch on a weekly bases but anyone who is use to watch all kind of tv series who is more constant at looking up whats new and consider it a hobby then would rate it very low and that’s fine, that’s critics territory.

Source

The episodes starts with a crazy story, a guy brakes in the Orange County Jail to recover his cellphone that contain incriminating information from a jewelry robbery he is been investigated for that face is going look very familiar latter on as he is Mike crane operator, the one he hired to help him pull the truck out from the hole under water until he find out about Mike’s plan, that’s where everything went south for them.

Source

On previous episode close the end Delly shows up at Mike’s Dad bar probably asking for his help although they also show the USB she stole from Moss, they didn’t actually mention it was Moss USB but you don’t have to run complex calculations to figure it out, ends up Delly was only asking Sonny to help her find where the gold is, at that very moment Mike haven’t told her he found it, another example how cut scenes without immediate definition leaves the viewer thinking on what happens next because on the previous episode I thought Delly was actually working with Sonny the entire time and I thought it was about whats on the USB not about the gold but the results where totally different, latter on when Mike calls her it turns awkward because now she tells Sonny she doesn’t need his help anymore.

During the episode Moss actually mention the USB and in another scene when talking to one of his guys he said it has work stuff and imagine all the murder, evidence and things he has done that are on that USB, for now its irrelevant since so far its all about the gold but once Mike or Delly get in trouble that USB could turn into a life saver.

Source

After Mike found the truck, well he thinks he found it, there is no evidence there is a truck down there or that there is gold inside, turns out Mike’s brother in law is the contractor in charge to drain the sink hole to turn it into a lake with a bottom of two feet of concrete, would take them about four days and nothing under water has been claim so its an open window for Mike with only one guard at night that could be easily kidnap, distracted or bought although Mike is cheap so he goes the distraction route.

The moment I saw that face I knew things wouldn’t go well for Mike, this guy is the one accuse for braking in jail to recover his phone and bail after the jewelry robbery, he works with Mike’s brother in law, supposedly got him a smart toilet so that’s the excuse Mike use to reach him, on the side offer him cash for someone who can operate a crane and the guy offer himself, it was just a matter of time before he finds out what is on the truck and either take it all or wanted a piece of it.

The night before Mike had planned to pull the job he shows up to the place where the truck is and his father show up too with too of his ex cop partners, they have been following, Sonny was following Mike the entire time anyways because he knew there was something that might interest him from Delly since she is related to Moss but now there is a bigger fish to fry with the gold inside the truck, they start arguing how they will divide the treasure until they figure out an arrangement, that night also Delly finds out of Iris, Mike’s ex wife who happen to be a cop, during a conversation she had with Ray-Ray one of Sonny’s ex cop partner he told her about Iris who ended with Mike as most of the time happens with cops wifes.

For the most part of the series Iris haven’t had an important role on it, by the way Delly got MAD as FUCK when she find out about Iris, I’m not sure if she felt jealous or betrayed or both by Mike, Iris will start getting closer to them and next potentially going to investigate a guy who Moss murder and Delly was part of his alibi, guess what happens when Iris finds out Delly is still alive and she is with Mike.

The night for the job comes and everything is set, Delly had to take care of the guard by faking she has some sort of break down and is about to jump into the sink hole full of water for the guard to convince her to get inside the church next to it and talk about it until she calms down, everything was going well and Mike suit up to go under water, same does Sonny and they trusted Buzz from all to help them with the chain to pull the truck, Buzz had a lot of trouble to concentrate but is loyal to Sonny although not too smart, he mention what he is going to do with the gold to the crane operator before the guy jumps into the crane to start working, after that all is seen is the chain drop on Mike’s head and Sonny had to help him not going deeper into the hole.

I mention at the start that the story is not so interesting and if you don’t pay attention might even get lost with all the going back and forward, scenes sometimes are inconclusive between chapters but at the end makes sense, this is something I think might get viewers off the rails but I still enjoy it, there ware two things I’m looking forward and its Iris going to Florida to investigate the man who Moss murder because he did and how is the crane operator going to betray Mike and the rest of the crew, one detail that fly by during the episode is Delly telling someone over the phone that they will see each other again and she loves him/her , it was a I love you so who knows if its a relative, a lover or even Moss himself, what if this was all a plan to have Mike find the treasure and Moss is using Delly to get to it, see this are the details I like about the series but I’m not anxious to whats going to happen next.
