What Chuck is doing is a selfish, awful act to put Jimmy down - but he believes what he's saying about it being for Jimmy's good. That's what makes him a compelling character. It's not that he is a top-hat-twirling Villain, but that his awful humanity and hubris have driven him to really believe he's this arbiter of…

The point isn't that she can't take care of herself, it's that she'll get into some trouble and her career will take a hit based on circumstances most likely involving Jimmy's shenanigans. In this episode we're seeing that she sort of chooses that path herself - she picks Jimmy knowing what could happen and not really…

Kim and Jimmy going down and eventually breaking up somehow is going to be sad as fuck.

Pete really reminded me of Cary Elwes from the first SAW film. Episode was definitely exciting, though I really hate Deanna's switch on killing people - so it's OK to throw everything out the window because it was your own family? Not that I don't understand - I just hope they explore that more next season. And a big…
