Not 100 percent fine with the idea, Teddy lets them go and heads back to his first priority: the job. Ultimately she tells Teddy they’re going back to Washington DC while he finishes his “duty” in LA. What doesn’t help Teddy is that by having them in Los Angeles it makes him weak especially when his wife tries to rationalize what he is doing and brings up the danger of the war he is in the middle of fighting. Seeing him interact with his family and actually smile for once was a nice change of pace in his storyline. It was nice to finally see Teddy as a four-dimensional character. Teddy leaves Alejandro alone with the rocket launchers to reconnect with his family.
What doesn’t help is that his wife and son come to town. Teddy is beginning to get a big head as he becomes comfortable in his new role. This act alone pisses Alejandro off who has been dealing with the power struggle between him and Teddy.
KARVEL SNOWFALL SERIAL NUMBERS
Now dipping their toes into arms dealing, Alejandro and Teddy have to grind down serial numbers on hundreds of decommissioned rocket launchers so they won’t be connected back to the U.S. If he doesn’t learn from this experience to not trust anyone, I don’t know if he ever will.Īnother character who is still learning about trust is Teddy. Twice in 24-hours Franklin was robbed with the same wad of cash. Instead of giving it to him, Karvel walks out of the house leaving Franklin and Leon standing dumbfounded in the living room. In the end, Karvel learns where the money is hidden and emerges from a room with Franklin’s cash. Franklin just wants his money and doesn’t want anyone to get hurt, which will most likely never be the case. Once again it’s brought up how babyish and weak Franklin acts when it comes to this “line of work.” There’s a part of me that feels bad for the kid. Karvel tries to bust open Lenny’s head but Franklin stops him. However, Karvel has a different approach that Franklin isn’t quite okay with. Just by watching his eyes, you can tell Franklin wants to just get his money and leave. While the other two tie Lenny up, Franklin just stands there contemplating on what to do. The three jump Lenny, one of the thieves, at his house.
Trying to prove his bravado, Franklin enlists his friend Leon and Leon’s acquaintance Karvel to help find the guys who took his cash from him.
Maybe all he needed was to get tossed a bit to realize this isn’t like selling candy bars for school. Ever since the first sale, Franklin has been walking around like he’s untouchable. When Franklin comes back demanding who those guys were, she points out that he’s a smooth talker but says he doesn’t know shit about business. That really wasn’t the case.įranklin’s ego is busted after being left in the street to die and Claudia calls him out on it. It gave the beginning a more serious tone than prior episodes leading one to believe that something is about to go down. Unlike the first two episodes, “Slow Hand” had a silent start with no overpowering catchy blues or pop song as Franklin reenters Claudia’s club after being robbed and beaten to a pulp. After “Make Them Birds Fly” honed in on Gustavo and Teddy’s storylines, they were basically forgotten in this episode. Instead, “Slow Hand” felt like a filler episode that sets up for future action to come. The trailer for Snowfall ’s “Slow Hand” portrayed the episode as one that would be filled with action and retribution.
