Al is indeed motivated by self-interest in this particular decision as well.
One of my favorite things about Deadwood - the first among many, I should say - is how his definition of "self-interest" changes over time. MAN! Now I want to rewatch it.

Swergin or Clay Davis: who's the bigger menace? (What? You wanted F,C, or M?)
They couldn't come up with a more creative title than "Bullock Returns to the Camp"?
Kristen Bell!! So weird to see her here. But I wonder what her and her brother's game is.
Farnum is a slippery, oily sonofabitch, isn't he? He plays like he's this sad sack, but he's more crafty than he seems.
Awww, Dan the big murderous teddy bear killed a guy for staring at Flora. How sweet.
Interesting thoughts from Bullock about killing the Indian. I really like the way this show weaves plot and character such that they're inextricably tied together. Plot defines character, and character defines plot.
The Reverend needs to either get killed or actually do something important.
Alma bugs me too. She's too...proper. Like the Reverend, she doesn't really belong. It's weird because Farnum also has a rather proper manner of speaking, but he makes it work. Everything Alma says feels unnatural and prepared, it's so well constructed.
So am I remembering right that "Suffer the little children" is next?
Yep.
That episode is so cloying and sentimental.
I sense that Corwood may be being sarcastic.
I wish that I could connect episode titles with the episodes because I just don't remember! But I'll wait to hear P-C's reaction.
Is Swergin a whoremonger? yeah, pretty much.
Lisa: The episode is called "Suffer The Little Children" and Kristen Bell's character has been introduced. Perhaps the episode guide can jog your memory?
