Title: Holy shit at the new episode of The Shield
Post by: TVC15 on October 22, 2008, 05:15:51 AM
The next couple of episodes are going to be fucking crazy.  I can't even venture a guess as to what could happen.

Agreed.  I didn't expect anything that happened on that episode except

Shane getting caught and running away

  There's no way I can accurately predict what will happen.  The previews next week look :omg and this was probably one of the best episodes since

Vic killed Margos and when Vic burned Armadillo's face on the stove

I knew that

Shane's assassination plans were going to get ruined by Two-Man but the Pezuella thing was completely out of nowhere.

I think that Shane's going to get killed by Vic but I really have no idea how the Mexican Maufia situation is going to work out now.  Vic isn't a cop so Pezuella and ICE could have no reason to use him and Pezuella is definitely getting ready to blackmail the shit out of A LOT of people.

I think there might be some characters from a few seasons ago coming back.

I'm just surprised how fast things are happening.  The turns in the last two episodes I would have expected to happen in like, the next to last episode of the series or something.

It definitely is probably one of the fastest moving episodes (last Tuesday)  I'm almost kind of glad the season kind of lagged for a bit because I loved the fast paced, action packed episodes.

The fact that it is moving that quick means that there should be a lot of shit going down.  Maybe it will be Shakespearean like what Shawn Ryan said.  4 or 5 more episodes left?

I liked the slower episodes because they reminded you that all the good side-story characters actually existed.  This is probably going to be one of the best-paced seasons since it doesn't feel unnatural when a lot of things happen (or don't) in one episode.  The next one is definitely going to be packed though.

I rewatched the episode.  Now, I know that each episode is like 1 day, but was Dani not mentioned at all in the new episode?  Maybe they just haven't noticed she's gone yet.

There was no mention of her on the episode.  Same goes for Tina, who fell off the face of the earth.

Wow, another fucking awesome episode.  They are making this as confrontational as possible.  This isn't going to be a pussy cheat ending like The Sopranos.

Vic has isolated himself even further.

spoiler (click to show/hide)
- Vic's useless wife, his only communication link to Shane, is now withholding information.
- Vic can't get things done w/o his badge.  A couple of his old contacts told him that the favors are over.  I guess that means an escape to Mexico option is done since he no longer can get favors from the passport forger.
- Getting arrested for pointing a gun by a hospital.

Plus the whole Dutch thing.

Not much action but a lot of plot changes.  Four more episodes left.

I still think there is a significant chance that Ronnie will take out Vic.  Vic has sufficiently fucked up his life, too, and

Holy shit at his revelation to Claudette, but I guess he had to give her a good explanation

I agree I think

Ronnie was actually relieved when telling Claudette about what is going on.  He knows that he will go down if he doesn't start spilling it and after seeing Vic's isolation, thanks in small part to himself, he will make sure that he keeps his job but not before making sure that Vic is no longer a problem.  I'm sure he wants Vic to take out Shane first.

Him telling Claudette that was awfully short-sighted, though.

It will be easy for Claudette to figure that Lem was killed over the IAD shit, so she can safely assume that basically anything Kavanaugh said was true.  Actually, I would pop a boner if Kavanaugh made an appearance

They brought back Tavon so anything is possible
