Well, he knew how to do it right.

Right. So, how much do you bet he'll be wearing a wire at some point in the future? The way the guy sweats, he might just short himself out. Good season ending cliff hanger?

Agreed.

And all Richie has to do is just say he hasn't seen/heard anything.

What's the point of unwatchable television?

The short scene where we see Richie giving Cece a wad of cash could suggest there may not be a baby.

I do too.

And, really, just how is he going to "rat out" Galosso? Is he (Galosso) so stupid that he is going to carry on with his nefarious business in the offices of Richie's company? He's just there to keep an eye on his investment and get his fingers into the record business. Isn't he?

Not exactly the same - worse, because they no longer owned the airplane.

The actor who portrayed Hannibal looked fantastic though - loved his outfit, the bell bottoms with platform shoes, and that wonderful head of hair. This is the thing I like so much about this show; the fashions that are so familiar yet it seems impossible that we actually wore those clothes. The music is wonderful and…

I stopped watching this episode at the point when Zak started making loud references to their stash of cash at the casino, (they couldn't put it in a bank while they were in LA, or get a cashier's cheque instead of cash?); I knew at that point the money was as good as gone, and I had no interest in finding out how. I…
