Yes. The only two girls the audience cares about were adversely affected by the party drug. It only makes Bad Girls feel good.

I think it will turn out to be a life-changing revelation for her.

They're referred to that way in a thread here. I like it.

Maybe we could compromise with that David Guetta Nicki Minaj song.

It's like that Maroon 5 song that you finally give in to in an ironic way.

But I still can't figure out when Frank is supposed to seem actually menacing and when he's supposed to seem like he's obviously bluffing. With the New Mexicans, for instance, I THINK he's supposed to seem like he thinks he has the upper hand, but he so obviously doesn't that I just can't tell. It's a real flaw.

Maybe if Season 1 had been directed by Fukunaga it might. I'm serious.

Was Ani's molester Chessani's dad? Were we supposed to know who he was?

Taylor Kitsch is doing a great job now, I think. His competence and reliability in a stressful situation is believable.

I wrote about this at length above, but I really think all this stuff is purposely over-the-top. I know this is a douche-y thing to say but this season really is supposed to be meta; it's dissecting the genre. I don't think it's going about it the right way but I feel much less frustrated watching now that I've…

Either that or they are the mayor's kids.
