He does often tell them how much money they will get.

Varga's professed antisemitism and the Widow's apparently Jewish name must be part of the show's allegory of current politics.

Killing is bad.

Except when he found out about the truck robbery. Frowned.

Wonder if Ray Wise protected Gloria from the creep cop of L.A. (Varga/Goldfarb minion perhaps.)

"St. Louis" is what somebody from Kansas City might say.

She finally got to Hollywood and wrote a screenplay.

Horribly unrelated, but the Washington Post dropped another clanger on Trump at 6:21pm. He's now personally under investigation by Mueller. "Trump had received private assurances from former FBI Director James B. Comey starting in January that he was not personally under investigation. Officials say that changed…

There's a whole passel of 'em, that's just the weakest. http://www.slate.com/articl…

He was a better stylist than some deep thinker, it proves that. A recap of Moby-Dick (and two other books from his youth) wouldn't cut it for a Ted Talk much less a Nobel speech.

15. "There ain't nothin' more powerful than the odor of mendacity… You can smell it. It smells like death." (On the one hand, he was gay-bashing his own son. On the other hand, it was written by Tennessee Williams.)

Always a bad answer. Then again the Russians spooks are known for just cozying up to important people to see what happens, and to bank it for future use.
