Now I did a job. I got nothing but trouble since I did it, not to mention more than a few unkind words as regard to my character so let me make this abundantly clear. I do the job. And then I get paid.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"

Loving the Leverage build up. Yay!

All three criminals, all three family.

And the audience knows that Johnny is following Bo's orders even though Johnny asked Boyd to step up and take the reigns a few days previously. So we know where Johnny's feelings are and they aren't with Bo.

This show kills me. I hope it didn't kill Johnny.

You know that when the 911 dispatchers see Rayland's number pop up they're like "Oh lord, here we go again."

There was a time that Raylan called in a shooting (and I'm away from the dvr so I cant check the quote) and asked for them to send an ambulance and the usual. I was thinking, "Raylan, that is only usual for you."

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

And the audience knows that Johnny is following Bo's orders even though Johnny asked Boyd to step up and take the reigns a few days previously. So we know where Johnny's feelings are and they aren't with Bo.

And the audience later has it confirmed that Bo knows Johnny was undermining him, so you know he intentionally chose Johnny to beat Boyd. Oh, I love the layers.

asked for them to send an ambulance and the usual.

Ha! I think I remember that now. I wonder if it's like walking into your regular coffee shop, where they start prepping your order as soon as they see you coming.

I can totally hear this in his boss' voice.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Does anybody know if Breaking Bad S2 got an episode-by-episode recap and/or discussion anywhere? TWOP is giving me no love, and I'd prefer to go over it episode by episode as I progress through the season....

Thank you-- that's exactly what I want.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

They can totally leave John and Bo alive if they want to.

We assume Bo is dead because he is not moving, but if he is not dead, he could have sufficient survival instincts to play possum. For John, as others have said, survival would require being found and administered anti-biotics soon. And still the odds would not be good, but not zero.

If Bo did survive, he might not go to jail if John is dead. Killing John? His lawyer could make the case that was Raylan and Ava. Kidnapping Ava, and trying to shoot Raylan? Same lawyer could argue that Ava and Raylan came out to kill him, he acted self-defense. Boyd's testimony? Boyd is batshit crazy, and evidence for this can probably be gathered. All the people in Boyd's church camp? Remembered, Boyd buried them. Could be argued that Boyd was the one who went even crazier and killed them.

Not a defense that I think would work in the real world. But in cop-show bizarro alterna-world where the system is stacked in favor of criminal defendents, and cops are continually martyred by stupid regulations designed to let the bad guys go free, it might work.

[Edited because apparently no fancy French spellings for the Crowders. When I was in Houston anyone I knew called 'Bo' was because it was a nickname. Or a term used to address strangers. People for who it was an actual name, were called "Beau" Or "Beauregard" by their parents.]

Or, I suspect, "Beaumont".

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Our family has both. It took someone who married in forever to get Bo's name spelled right. My cousin finally explained to her, "It's the redneck spelling, not the yuppie New Orleans spelling!" (Cousin's son is the Beau in the family).

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I've also known a few Bo-spelled Bos who were originally Boaz.
