Episode 1
The Pee Pee Guy
Tue, Sep 25, 201828 mins
Ray Shoesmith moves through life with a fractured moral compass calibrated by necessity. He is a man trapped between the tenderness of a father and the cold efficiency of a predator. When his boss defaults on a debt, Ray is forced to mentor a useless apprentice while extracting cash from the desperate. The friction of the job bleeds into his personal sphere. A simple request for an apology at an ice cream shop transforms into a primal display of dominance. Ray relies on his innate capacity for sudden, explosive cruelty to solve every inconvenience. The cost is a permanent state of hyper-vigilance that threatens to stain the few pure connections he has left.

This lethal mistake triggers a fractured sense of duty; he attempts to scrub the blood from his hands by delivering a fraudulent fortune to the victim's family. He masks his true nature behind the mundane chores of fatherhood, yet the sociopathic switch remains primed. When a botched deal leaves a comrade broken in a hospital bed, Ray abandons his attempts at atonement. He leans into the raw brutality that defines him, choosing a path of singular, explosive vengeance to restore his distorted sense of order.

A court forces him into anger management after he brutalizes a stranger who shoved his daughter, yet every attempt at normality keeps collapsing into violence. Criminal tensions spread outward when Freddy pressures Ray to settle a feud tied to family politics and wounded pride. At home, Jacinta pushes back against Ray's blunt worldview after he tells Brittany that Jesus is not real. Then Gary calls for help.

On Behalf of Society
Tue, Oct 2, 201824 mins
Gary takes Ray for a drive to give him a surprise as a thank you for saving him. Ray and Ally's relationship has developed. Freddy takes Ray to meet Davros. Ray doesn't like Davros and although Davros seems placated by the end of the conference, Freddy knows better. A road-rage incident forces Ally to confront Ray about his quick access to violence, rather than attempting to diffuse a situation. When court-ordered anger management therapist Peter confronts Ray about the same impulse, Ray explains that it's justifiable to let people clearly know that there are ramifications for being an asshole. For Ray, it's all about respect. Ray brings Ally home to meet Brittany. Ray can't sleep and gets up to notice a van parked outside surveilling his house. He goes for a drive and leads the van out to a safe place to do some permanent damage to it's occupants - Davros' guys - using the surprise gift Gary gave him.
Episode 5
Hard Worker
Tue, Oct 9, 201824 mins
Ray and Gary are planning to relieve a guy of his drugs and cash, and bring Nick in on the job, but a sudden turn of events scuppers their plans. After informing Freddy about his and Gary's plans going astray, Ray is picked up by Davros' slow-witted bodyguard, Bobby, and the wily hitman, Dave, who abduct Ray in his own car. Ray tells his captors about a hidden strongbox containing a great deal more cash than they're being paid to do the job. Dave devises a plan: tell Davros they ran out of gas, tell Ray that they'll let him go once the strongbox is retrieved, retrieve it, deliver Ray to Davros, and get paid twice. What could possibly go wrong? Dave and Bobby uncover the strongbox, but when they momentarily leave Ray's car unattended with Ray safely locked in the trunk, the car disappears. Dave and Bobby hot wire another car and go looking for Ray, the car, and the strongbox.

Your Mum's Got a Strongbox
Tue, Oct 9, 201825 mins
We meet potheads Scon and Lefty and discover they are the reason for the disappearance of Ray and his car. Scon and Lefty drop off Ray's car to auto mechanic Bernie to be chopped for parts. Bernie is surprised to find Ray in the boot and has to dump Ray's car in a nearby forest with him still tied-up inside. Ray kicks his way out of the trunk, and shortly afterwards encounters Scon and Lefty with his phone and his strongbox. Trailing them back to Bernie's auto shop, Ray confronts the trio just as they're about to torch open his strongbox, which Ray reclaims intact. Dave and Bobby intercept Ray, and finally deliver him to Davros. As Ray prepares to be dispatched to his final resting place, Davros decides he wants in on the contents of the strongbox. Only when it's finally opened do Davros, Dave, and Bobby discover that it doesn't exactly contain what they were expecting, and are reminded that greed isn't necessarily good.
