Well before the seminal film "And The Band Played On," MV tackles the issue of AIDS and the public phobia associated with the disease. I can't say enough about how the writing has improved leaps and bounds in season 4 and this episode is yet another example.EJO gets another shot at showing more layers of Castillo, proving he is probably the most interesting/enigmatic character on the show and possibly the most talented actor working on TV. Some of the all-time best MV episodes revolve around Castillo's back story and this episode keeps the trend alive.Esai Morales does a great job playing the straight shooting son of a criminal boss. Throughout the first 3/4's of the episode we're led to believe he might be taking over his father's business, but the plot proves to be much more complex and far more daring.After watching the first 6 episodes of season 4 I'm beginning to get the feeling the producers have intentionally turned the series on its head in an attempt to not only make a better show, but also to critique the mindless, senseless violence and style over substance of the first 3 seasons.
