Actually, I think Daniel was not certain … hence the reading of the testimony/transcript/deposition and the throttling of the pillows … which did nothing for him …

Or if he thought one (or both) of them should have been more formal …. you call me "Ted" … I'll call you "Rebecca"
I did note that she called him Ted, which I'm guessing he told her he preferred, when she asked … in follow up to Tawny never asking…
I don't mind being called Susan … but being called "susie" really…
While my interest is much more character-centered, I wouldn't mnd having the details of Hanna's case/death made clear and that story put to bed once and for all as part of the show's conclusion/finale. I'd rather Trey not be "wrongly convicted" of George's suicide … but perhaps that's appropriate "poetic justice"…
Except as she pointed out — that's what he said last time and then showed up because he needed to see her "up close" …
as was his, "well I've been thinking maybe she's not the right girl for me" … and all the things he'd "miss" are apparently physical/sexual…. not "she's got my back" or "she's wise and keeps me centered" or even "she's a damned fine housekeeper" …. or even "I miss coming home to her — or someone…. " (Memories of the…
There are many ways that Teddy might wake-up and smell the coffee and stop being quite so self-preoccupied … even by trying to be a better Christian, however, so far even his baby-steps progress with Tawny have a going-through-the-motions quality … and the depth of his sincerity — as opposed to being manipulative /…
The Wire was really hard …. enormous cast, no netflix to catch up and half the characters were really really difficult to understand …. and prety much zero-hope of a happy ending…. as I recall, I came in late having not had the cable access …big Simon fan … but damn, I had read the book and seen every episode of…
Particularly since she was with him when he had the stroke, when we last saw BOTH of them (together) in the coffee shop, where she was on-the-job being a waitress ….
Fwiw, I don't remember … did we previously meet his daughter, assuming he has one …etc.
I think that Ted Sr. was a long-term employee of the late Mr. Holden, rising to assist manager maybe … if so he may well have watched Daniel grow up … doesn't mean he liked him or Amantha for that matter … and fwiw, Amantha seems to have little fondness for Teddy who entered her life I guess as an early-teenager……
I cracked up about how Teddy acted like he made a touchdown by getting Tawny to admit she wasn't certain if she wanted to stay married to him … go Teddy!!!! … like moving out wasn't a clue … yeah, you're not "going crazy" … that's why she moved out … like the therapist didn't notice that he was taking a "competitive"…
I think that's realistic though — he's a brand-new parolee and needs to learn that his actions (and omissions) have consequences … I thought she was actually extremely reasonable, particularly since Daniel's under active investigation wrt George's death … he needs to not only "get off on the right foot"… he needs to…
I don't know but it's possible … what's more interesting is that Teddy went to the sheriff rather than to either his dad or to his parents to mediate … my guess based on Teddy's hair-trigger and smirky nature is that this isn't the first time (and, sigh won't be the last) … he's a small-minded, insecure man … whose…
No one apparently asked Daniel or Teddy … since Ted Sr. learned about the attack from the Senator or the Sheriff and Teddy said he "thought" his father knew about the attack — dreadful all the way around …
For Ted Sr. to exile Daniel without getting a full explanation and without consulting Janet — damn near…
Oh and in that therapist session — anyone else amused by the side-eye Tawny gave Teddy about how he had been — sniff / sob — displaced as the beloved son by the return of Daniel … I'm assuming the therapist caught it … but have I forgotten Teddy being forced to eat at the "little kids' table" at Thanksgiving because…
I was more baffled as to what had "set him off" and worried about self-harm … was it what Trey said (Was trey really there?) or was it the tedious reality that the probation department would make a housecall for failure to answer the phone, and that he could easily get into deep trouble for misplacing/forgetting to…
If George was indeed a secret homosexual (a detail I have no memory of) or simply a man with no sexual outlet who was inclined to same-sex sexual activity when drunk and it was tolerated (as I gather was suggested), that may have been a two-way acknowledged secret of long-standing. Letting another man blow you doesn't…
It would have better for Daniel to verbally set limits/boundaries both the first and the second time Teddy brought it up or even punched him …Teddy even asking the question on first meeting Daniel as post-prison adult says an enormous amount about Teddy … his level of hostility towards Daniel, his penchant for…
or blackmailed George into testifying ?
who is also somewhat of a Mary Magdalene figure in this passion play …. although I was surprised and saddened by her apparent inability to cope with the rather feral creature infirmity had turned the Senator into.
Yes, that was very scary … and only-this-show, I was so relieved that voice wasn't a hallucination/delusion… a fear that persisted even into the kitchen. Very very scary for Trey to kinda/sorta tell Daniel that in fact Daniel didn't do it …. and that Trey knows that (while Daniel is uncertain, although now, perhaps,…
