It looks like we have not seen the last of the artistic triumvirate behind "Medellin." Tonight, Ari, in characteristically underhanded fashioned, paved the way for Vince to reunite with Billy Walsh and Eric for his next project. This would be good news were it not for the growing animosity between "little E" and the apoplectic Walsh. For a little guy with a "Napoleonic complex," Eric strikes me as someone who could certainly hold his own against a much bigger adversary; that was definitely the case as the two came to blows in the middle of Barney's. But when the newly tattooed Billy (sporting a full-on Pablo Escobar on his back) showed up at an important interview with a T-shirt reading "Suits Suck," I thought for sure the dinner was going to go south. Thankfully for Vince and the good of the movie, the two held off from killing each other. I can't wait to see what happens when Ari starts negotiating with Walsh. That should be something to see.
Speaking of Mr. Gold, it has been a while since we've had a really good (and printable) quote from him. Tonight, he was the proud owner of the evening's best line, as Lloyd offered to repair Eric's torn shirt. "Save your homoerotic slave labor for me, Lloyd, and E, don't take your shirt off. I don't want anyone going blind from the reflections off your translucent boy chest." Classic Ari.
Unfortunately, Johnny and Turtle landed in another far-fetched and convoluted story line that had Johnny coveting a trucker cap available for sale at a medical-marijuana establishment. Naturally, Johnny needed a doctor's prescription for access to the clinic, so he and Turtle ended up in the office of an unscrupulous doctor who helped Johnny navigate the ins and outs of prescriptions on demand. While I always enjoy some good Johnny Drama wisdom, I prefer the story lines that don't send him and Turtle off on their own misguided adventures. Tonight's silliness was no exception.
Finally, I am really enjoying these trailers that HBO is putting together for "Medellin." It's very clever marketing and I'll be curious to hear if anyone has taken the time to visit the site. Also notable tonight, in an episode that ended with Johnny and Turtle getting completely baked, was a guest appearance by
Snoop Dog, attempting to figure out the correct pronunciation of Cannes. For the record, it's pronounced "can." Fo' shizzle.
