He is! I have never seen an actor embody his character like Red does!

And as serious as this episode was there was still room for some humor, like in the scene where he was sitting in the car with Gale.

He is phenomenal. The whole episode I felt like a red was on pinsand needles. It's like I could feel him struggling even though he was keeping up appearances. I could feel his hurt when his acquaintances doubted him. His emotions just bled through.

I agree Marilyn!

Well, this thread was fun to catch up on

Miranda · 05-21-2017, 07:21 AM

I can imagine that Paula.

Oh yes, he was on his best in these episodes... It was an emotional roller coaster and I think we have almost seen everything from him in these two ones... Besides him crying or being wounded.

I love those gif. And Dom telling him to fight back. Whatever is going on, he didn't want Red to lose or give up. So glad Kaplan did not know about him. Only Ddmbe..even though Aram knows where he lives

Miranda · 05-22-2017, 10:39 AM

I am sure that if Kaplan had known about Dom she would have gone after him so I really glad that Red succeeded in keeping Dom a secret for Kaplan.

I love that Dom told Red that he had to fight. He needed to hear that.

I loved it too! He really needed it

Miranda · 05-24-2017, 10:01 AM

And Dom was the perfect person to tell him.

Lauren Helen Graham · 05-24-2017, 01:21 PM

Oh yes, Dom was the perfect man to tell him

And it's surprising that something like that came from Dom, the person that somehow seems to hate Red as well... I think it's a great mixture of hate and love somehow. You can tell by their second talk. I really hope this wasn't the last we saw of Dom.

Fangirl49 · 05-24-2017, 05:11 PM

So do you suppose Red is still broke? I wonder if he was able to get his money back. I'd almost like to see him struggling...although my poor baby has struggled enough.

Miranda · 05-25-2017, 12:35 PM

I think it would be very interesting to see Red being broke and struggle. I think S5 will mainly be about him building his empire again and I think because he has hit rock bottom with his empire that he can come back even stronger. He is never ever going to let this happen to him again.

Fangirl49 · 05-26-2017, 06:01 AM

If he's rebuilding, How involved would the task force be in that? I can see some real ethics, moral problems for them.

Miranda · 05-26-2017, 12:44 PM

The task force would not fit in with him rebuilding his empire but he still knows about the worst criminals that are out there so he could still give them names right?

Fangirl49 · 05-26-2017, 05:22 PM

Yeah but if the names help him rebuild I could see a conflict. Although he has been using the FBI for his own purposes the whole time
