Obsession (2023) – Episode 2 – Personal Thoughts

Source

Its a shame that this Mini Series has so low rate 5.7/10 on IMDB and only be four episodes but I guess the amount of episodes is to keep things as intense as possible. On episode two the craziness really boils up from both part from William and Anna, this might not be 50 shades of gray but for sure is half of it, there is the dominant and the dominated but Ana likes to play both roles while for William he is the dominated for the most part even when Anna wants to be told what to do he cant, at first I thought Anna would be the one obsess with William but its totally the opposite, Anna likes to do what ever she wants without barriers or boundaries and William he is just a bastard, who needs enemies when your father is fucking your girlfriend and having a weird as fuck relationship with her and same for Anna, she is no wife material I can tell you that. This has nothing to do with liberalism or what people can do or don’t with their love lives, this is totally wrong in every possible way, there is nothing positive from what Anna and William are doing with their lives, the only positive thing would be learn what not to do when all this blow up, nothing good can come out of it and William is now taking this to a higher level stocking Anna and Jay, going after them, wanting to be more special than Jay for Anna, does William even likes or care for Jay? this is so fucking wrong. The only satisfaction I take from this series is waiting for the moment William gets caught, I really don’t care about what happens with Anna, she is just a crazy bitch, for sure a bad bitch because she is having for sure more than two relations, she has William, Jay and Peggy who I guess is also in love with her and knows Anna is not hers but Jay’s, contrary to William who want to be the number one in her life.

Here are the rules,
You wait for me to say when
You do not turn up uninvited
Nothing happens beyond these walls without my permission
Is my choice to surrender to you
Do you understand?
I give you your power
And you accept that
Then in this room we can be who ever we want to be

This two love to fuck in very uncomfortable surfaces, flat on the floor, against walls, at William age that cant be pleasant, but he is so crazy for Anna probably he doesn’t care, once or twice is enough but on this episode they do it several times besides first episode, its like there is no bed on the apartment, couch or even chairs, William take Anna’s proposition and accept the rules, but for someone obsess as he is this rules are meant to be broken.

Source

Every time William look at his wife Ingrid there is that awkwardness, that moment of tension and she is starting to think William has an affair although he said it joking but when he looks or talk to Jay there is nothing, its like nothing concerning to Jay is happening, they both at home talking about Anna and William can care less about Jay.

Source

Im sure this was William first test to the rules Anna impose him, when it comes to Anna there is no schedule, family or work, nothing else really matter. On this scene Anna text him “6 P.M My flat” which eventually is not actually hers, its Peggy place that he use as a motel room to fuck who ever she wants.

Source

Anna for sure already calculate the outcomes of this moment, minutes before William shows up she text him “DON’T COME” knowing Peggy is there and probably he will anyways, obviously William failed this test, he was ready to fuck and all of the sudden Anna put a stop to horniness freaking him out and wanting explanations which Anna didn’t have to give him based on the rules he agree at first.

Source

The man seem to have everything, successful at his profession, great wife, kids are old enough with one about to probably marry, but he is probably bored of his life, when a man or a woman has all this and ends up having an affair they probably bored of the same, I don’t want to talk about what’s right or wrong but in Williams case the leas he can do is not have an affair with his son’s girlfriend and if you are going to have an affair treat it as such, nothing can replace your family, you cant become attach to that second woman in your life she is there to fuck, laugh and have a good time and both must be on the same plan. William on the other hand looks like he wants Anna only for him, he becomes obsess to be more special than Jay to her, wants to know things he doesn’t, wants to read her diary which at first she didn’t let him but then agree during sex, he even takes a page out of her diary just to keep something of hers with him, the craziness doesn’t stop here.

Source

Ingrid became worry that Jay will ask Anna to marry him, Jay is taking Anna to Paris for a romantic weekend, when Ingrid and William talk about this matter for some twisted reason he decides to go after them, stocking Anna outside of their hotel from a restaurant, calling the hotel reception to find out if they are there, insist to call her cellphone, even call their room, been Anna the silver fox she is, she picks up the phone talk to William and agree to meet outside without having Jay to suspect anything.

Source

According to Wikipedia of soft-porn this series is right there, you will see nudity, ass, tits and them having sex but no penetration so this is a series only for adults.

After a quick fuck on a alley, Anna gets pissed because William clearly broke the rules and have no control over himself, putting her relationship with Jay at risk but I think that’s not really what concern her, she doesn’t care about Jay she only cares about getting caught, if she cared about Jay she wouldn’t be doing any of this, Anna goes back to the hotel and pretend to have a headage so she end up staying with Jay at the hotel to leave the next morning. Weird they only went to Paris for one day?

Source

Right after they left, FREAKY WILL decides to rent the same room they were staying at, praying they havent change the sheets or pillows, looking for her smell to then jerk off on the same bed his son and Anna slept.

Source

After all this event Anna had to vent out, goes to a bar with Peggy and they talk about it, Peggy is worried about Anna getting caught and ruining he relation with Jay to the point Anna only worry about that, getting caught and stays firm on the idea she wont.

Source

Source

The next day Jay invited Anna for dinner at the same time an unknown / hidden phone number text William “I know what you are doing, Stop now pervert” while he is having dinner with Ingrid, he freaks out goes to the backyard to call Anna and tell her but she interrupts him before he can talk and to let HIM continue to fuck her she demands to from him to give her permission to say yes when Jay ask her to marry him.

 

 

This two bastards are twisted as fuck, none of them cares for others besides themselves, Anna can easily change roles from be the dominant to dominated but William cant and he is trap on his obsession for Anna, I’m sure someone will die at the end, when they find out about Anna and William, he will end up loosing everything, the amount of bad outcomes from this situation is countless, there is only two episodes left and for a mini series I don’t find it rush and also I’m not having the need to watch a hole season, really liking this drama.

 

 

Florida Man : Welcome to Hell, Mike – Episode 2 – RECAP

Source

Florida Man I’m sure is not the most watch TV series online at the moment but its very entertaining, the love / hate story between Mike and Delly will make you laugh here and there, she can really be a pain in the ass for Mike some times but he cant say no to her, good thing is that it doesn’t give me the vibe that she is using him more than that she wants him with her but Mike knows he now has to figure out how to kill her legally. Her body was not found after “she got shoot” , local police is on the case, Mike is a suspect and Delly ex boyfriend Moss isn’t sure if she is dead, if Mike can proof it then Moss could try to kill him, lets not forget that they made a deal if he brings back Delly, Moss would consider Mike’s debt paid in full but now she is dead and there are no proofs so technically Mike didn’t bring her back so the deal is off for now, Mike is now trying to get a new deal where he finds out who did it and brings him to Moss. 6.8/10 with more than 3700 votes on IMDB is very good for this series, plus 83% audience approval on RottenTomatoes.com

In my opinion the most important events

Source

Source

On this episode we get more context on how things really happen, first episode was more of a mystery how Delly manage to fake her death but it look like things didn’t go entirely as she wanted, that’s the entire situation with the ambulance that crash and got stolen, she was suppose to be taken some where else but got thrown out during the crash and that’s how she ends up in Mike’s hotel room without knowing what to do to close things up.

She meets a paramedic, I think he was very low in the paramedic ranks probably been just the guy who drives the ambulance, he looks lonely and she is hot, so Delly flirt with him a bit and then straight up ask him to safe another life by killing her in a figurative way.

Source

I don’t remember his name was mention on this episode but the guys name is Gil Franco, he brings blood from the blood bank at the hospital he works at and a serum that will slow Delly’s heart rate to the point anyone would think she is dead, he shoots twice before leaving and calls the ambulance that will pick her up. After the ambulance picks her up the serum starts to wear off and a guy who stole a cop car crash with the ambulance and then stole the ambulance that’s how she gets thrown out, Delly already knew where was Mike staying since she once saw him talking to his sister outside of Palm’s Hotel.

Source

All Delly had to do is wait for Mike to tell him her plan to go away, basically find a ship underwater full of gold, the golden coin Mike found on her purse, Mike tries to resist but he couldn’t he really likes Delly, he cares for her and its here when he tries to make another deal with Moss, find out who kill Delly as it looks like a “professional hit”, Moss is a bit foolish so he byte it and accept but now Mike needs to proof Delly is dead or find the gold and run far away, keep in mind that the police is investigating the case until now.

Source

That investigation is about to end after officer Andy Boone saw Delly with Mike at the Palm’s Hotel parking lot, I don’t think that’s going to end there because then he will want to know why Delly wanted to fake her death and whats her relation with Mike, anyone who listen to this story knows there is something else building up, until here were are clear on Mike and Delly intentions.

Source

There are other funny side stories that at some point will catch up with Mike like Deputy Ketcher who Mike stole his gun at the airport, until then he has been compulsive to get a gun end up buying a stolen gun and got caught by a trooper patrol after he got stop because of speeding and got the car search, on this scene while at jail his handset broke and had to put her wife on speaker and she snitch on him by accident saying he is a con decorate police man who put lot of criminals behind bars while the rest of the inmates listen LOL.

Source

Close to the end of the episode Delly came back to the place where the ambulance crash, some of her stuff was all over the place, she was looking for a USB thumb drive, they never said whats inside, I guess there must be some data related to the gold they looking for or Moss.

At the same time Mike is looking for a truck where they think the buy who told Moss about the gold before he got killed for owing money to him, Mike got a good hint where the truck is.

Source

While Mike was giving Delly the good news she was actually at Mike’s father bar, I’m sure Mike told her how bad his relationship was, he is going to be mad AF when he finds out about this, they don’t explain why and how she got there, I think its probably because Mike’s father look for her and now helps her to get the gold they looking for, I don’t think Delly did this on purpose but again this is not explain on the episode, it ends right here.

More and more people are getting interested into Delly, we got Moss, Mike’s ex girlfriend Patsy who is looking for Delly as she is Moss alibi for the night a man was found dead who owe money to Moss now Mike’s father is interested on her plus Officer Andy who now knows Delly is alive but wants to know why she fake her death or if there was some one killed that night and the first suspects are Mike and Delly. If you are trying to fake your death and now getting so much attention at some point news will get to Moss that Delly is not death and Mike has been lying to him, ending up Moss trying to kill Mike for the money he owes him and think he has a relation with Delly, Mike is playing with fire here but that’s another theme of the series, gambling, always risking too much expecting to win big.

 

Florida Man : The Realest Goddamned Place on Earth – Episode 1 – RECAP

Source

A gambler over all then an ex cop, Edgar Ramirez from the epic Hands of Stone film plays Mike Valentine who currently working for a mobster he owns money while fucking his girlfriend on the side now has to go after her when she brakes up with Moss Yankov the mobster Mike owes money to.

Florida Man from my perspective is not a AAA TV Series although very entertain, so far I have only seen the first episode, this Tv Series is part of a nice group of release from last week that I was expecting. Mike has been working on his gambling issue going to meeting and staying away from trouble but at the same time putting his life at risk since he has been sleeping with his boss girlfriend, gambling is not a problem only related to money and casinos, usually people with gambling problems bring the to their regular life and Mike is taking risks every day that can even get him killed.

Mike addiction starts after he found a gold coin inside a fish, that’s weird but fish can swallow things, while fishing with his dad caught this fish who had a golden coin inside that I guess he felt it was his lucky day, that probably push him into trying to feel lucky again, that dopamine injection of wining got him for life.

Source

This was an accident, Mike didn’t brake his leg.

Mike owes money to a mobster called Moss Yankov who agree to hire him to drive and collect but Mike is against violence, just intimidation, during the process some end up in violence even braking a leg like the guy on the screenshot who ran away from Mike thinking he was going to brake his leg, Mike has a good hard although his past actions do not back him up. Gambling got him to loose his job and girlfriend, leaving him alone and now having to deal with Moss life.

Source

Here we have Iris, Mikes ex girlfriend who still works on the police force and now is an investigator, she doesn’t seem too confident and eventually ask Mike for help, she knows Mike is on Moss inner circle, Mike agreement has always been no body dies as he collects Moss money but its not for sure Moss kept his side of the agreement.

Source

Meet Delly West, Moss girlfriend who he loves?? I’m not sure about it, she does look like a trophy girlfriend for him, the type of girl you don’t care about she is just too hot you need to have her in your shelf, not that I think that’s the right thing to do but that’s the mentality of a character like Moss.

Source

Delly is a regular girl, yes she likes expensive things and might be superficial but she is tired of Moss business line, at some point for everyone money and possession becomes irrelevant and that’s what happen with Delly after Moss gave her a used necklace. Delly has been fucking Mike every time she gets tired of Moss just to get back at him but without actually telling him, there is revenge that stay silent for a while.

 

 

Source

Delly runs away to Florida and Moss asks Mike to go after her and bring her back, she have been trying to get Mike on board to her plan but he didn’t want to , he thought it was too risky and he is just trying to get clean from gambling.

Delly once told Mike they both will never get away from Moss, they took something for him and now wont get away form him, then Mike answer not for ever.

She probably also took money or a big favor from Moss or his family and was force to keep with him, in the meantime as a Mobster girlfriend got use to nice things, expensive lifestyle but as anything in this world at some point you just want peace and silence, she knew with Moss she was not going to get that and decided to run away.

Source

Mike goes back to Florida, he is from Florida, for sometime he has been trying to stay away from Florida, from this episode I can say its mainly because of his past life, he started gambling in Florida and his dad wasn’t the best, a corrupt police man now retired who is kind of a mobster himself.

Source

Sonny Valentine, Mike’s dad, because of him Mikes is recognize around town and was able to pull a favor and locate her very quickly, a local police man who got his job because of Mike’s dad gave him the tip that Delly’s car has been spotted at a local car sales which lead Mike to find her. He found the place and act like he was interested on the car, inspecting the car finds a parking citation that gave him her possible location at Coronado Beach.

Source

Mike gets to the place she was staying in and saw her get to a cabin with a man, after a few minutes heard gun shots to then find Delly laying cover in blood on the bed, he takes her purse and run away but the owner of the place saw him.

Source

Mike starts his investigation, trying to figure out who and why Delly was killed, he is an artist at tricking people into think he is someone else and thats how he got the tip from the cop, now he goes to a local tv station and talks to reporter that could get him information about Delly because after the murder she cant be found, no news, no reports, they police cant find her body and this reporter got him a video of the ambulance where Delly body was suppose to be transfer, for Mike to find out there was no body on that ambulance.

Source

The police now has a drawing of the man who was seen at the crime scene, although there is no crime if they cant find a body, shots were heard and a man was seen last time entering the cabin with Delly, an ambulance came in and pick her up but then no body knows where Delly is meaning even if someone help the police to identify Mike there is nothing they can charge Mike for.

Everything felt so strange to the point that now he thinks it was a professional job to disappear Delly, that’s the extreme way of killing someone, for that to happen there must be a motive and he is trying to figure out, obviously the first suspect is Moss who Mike confront over the phone but he denied it, says he loves her and would never hurt or kill Delly.

Mikes father also give him a hard time because he had him follow and the police approach him to give him a heads up of whats going on with Mike.

Source

Turns out Delly is way smarter and as she was mention, she would never get away from Moss so she decide to reborn, fake her own death and have Moss know about it to be truly free.

 

 

Florida Man is just a story, it wouldnt be strange if its a novel, I havent research into it, I find this series very entertaining, the cast is not the best one out there but its enough to keep you wanting to know more about what happens to Delly and if Moss will ever find her. The story of Mike sound insteresting too as he kept saying he was running away from Florida, we part of it is because of his dad but what else is in Florida that Mike doesnt like that much, then we have that Mike will have to choose between his ex girlfriend Iris who he is still trying to get back with and Delly who is/was his boos girlfriend he been fucking on the side. I think the answer is obvious, Mike eventually choose Delly but ends up alone, the story will be interesting of what happens during that process and if he stays in Florida, his ex girlfriend is investigating Moss since she was assign to task force in the local police department, this investigation might get Mike involve and she knows it. Mike again gambling his life away now helping Iris to get Moss.

 

 

 

The Patient: Alan Learns to Meditate – A Rocket Pocket – Personal Opinion

Source

Sam delves more deeply into the reason he entered therapy, but he encounters resistance from Dr. Strauss as he attempts to continue their sessions. A gathering sense of not being alone leads to a revelation about the house. Source

Each episode on this series is twenty three minutes long, I think that’s a great approach compare to other TV shows because if you somehow manage to get 100% of someone’s attention for that amount of time they you did a great job with the script and there is no reason why they wont keep watching the series, instead of spending more resource like time and money better just focus on that short amount of time, its like having a good espresso than a large cup mediocre coffee when all you want is to wake up. There is another factor that comes up on this episode, now that everyone knows what’s what, Alan knows he is captive and Sam that he is control there is a sense of dark humor that comes up on both sides and I couldn’t stop laughing at some one else pain, that’s inevitable.

On episode two of The Patient Alan is still in disbelieve of the situation that he is in, he denies to start therapy with Sam while Sam just keeps almost begging with good deeds like bringing food everyday, establish conversation, coming up with more revealing truth that he is a real serial killer and for what I can tell he is the author of more than one serial killer, I mean more than one serial killer because he is known for individual victims and victims under a patter like the John Doe killer. I mention there is dark humor on this episode as the cover of this post shows where Sam brings a box and put it on his lap while Alan is thinking GOOD LORD!!! who is on that box, but Sam answers back “Don’t worry its not a head” I couldn’t stop laughing to then Alan answer “Oh that’s a relief”, we will probably see more of this during the rest of the episodes.

Source

But at a point in the episode Alan finally realize he has no other option, he is a well known therapist and now he is playing chess, he will have to figure out a way probably not to cure Alan from his twisted reality where he is God and can kill anyone that goes against his believes but figure out the way how either he can brake him or manipulate him so he can get out of his captivity alive. As Alan keeps having flashbacks of his wife, he remembers how he was trying to learn to meditate and in his current situation would help a lot.
Hunger is something that nobody can avoid, yes people can stay without eating for sometime against their will but if you have the choice at some point everyone brakes down, under captivity that’s the first sign of either two things survival or acceptance of where you are and the situation, when I saw Alan eating I thought ok he is going to take some action, his first decision was to open a lock with a plastic fork, really?? so smart to think he could pull that off and then the fork brakes so immediately realize that if Sam finds out he would be in trouble, this is the first time we see Alan analyzing what would be Sam reaction because until this point Sam was in full denial that he would have to interact with Sam.
Eventually Sam comes home and finds out about the fork, I really thought he would react with violence but he didn’t, calmly just explain Alan how foolish was that and that he wont be able to escape by using a plastic fork, Sam has experience killing people so he might have already kidnap a few so this is not his first rodeo.

Source

After Sam asking many times Alan to help him with therapy he finally accepts and decides to move on, here comes some dark humor again, Alan explain him in short words that he cant be violent during therapy and that they both need to feel safe and then says “I don’t know what to do about that…” meaning he doesn’t feel safe, MF Sam only smiles at first, this is they guy that kidnap Alan I told him “I know this is not normal but its ok”

Source

Sam doesn’t look like a violent guy so far, mostly looks broken, if I could take a guess his father was a very strict person that wouldn’t cut corners and hate people who did and thought the same to Sam as kid but then as Sam mention he use to beat him down every time he wanted specially if he has memories of that room where they are so there could attachment to the house, probably not the best place for therapy since it can bring flashbacks of how his father hurt him many times.

Source

So they keep therapy sessions and so far Alan is just listening, I can tell Alan is a very calm and probably naïve guy because so far I don’t see any moves trying to manipulate Sam. Sam keeps talking about his work and how he had this episode with a restaurant manager who had a few violations to an inspection and the guy basically manipulate the system, cut corners to get his way and Sam hate him for that, he cant stop thinking about it, essentially he wants to teach the guy a lesson, Sam has dis obsession that things are either white or black and in his book if you don’t do things right he ends up killing you. Sam has been “trying” to stop and that’s tormenting him from the inside, somehow this time he manage so far not to kill the guy from the restaurant and now decided to seek or professional help of a therapist to stop feeling that way and stop ending up killing people, to make it worst as any other human in life he wants results in a matter of two sessions and start feeling its not helping, Sam is going to kill someone very soon, hope its not Alan.
Alan constantly heard someone walking while Sam was away so he figure out someone has to be upstairs, he kept asking until that someone came down, I guess is an old person as they went down with one of those metal things to move carbon while its on fire and was also walking slowly like he/she is afraid, Alan politely smile.

On this episode we see how the mind games begin, we still see Alan weak, no plan, no intentions to escape but to help Sam, I guess at some point that will stop because when Sam becomes violent, feels therapy is not helping and Alan wants to escape, how long it will take I don’t know but for sure this series is a rocket pocket, its short but kept you glued to the screen in those 20 minutes of suspense.
