Trivia

The conversation that Frank (Vince Vaughn) has with Stan's son, Jimmy (Austin Nash Chase), is strikingly similar to a monologue spoken by Denzel Washington in Fallen (1998). "There are moments which mark your life. Moments when you realize nothing will ever be the same and time is divided into two parts, before this, and after this... Sometimes you can feel such a moment coming. That's the test, or so I tell myself. I tell myself that at times like that, strong people keep moving forward anyway, no matter what they're going to find."

Best episode yet

First review.

I've had a struggle with TD:Season II, mainly because of Vince Vaughns acting (I like Farrell and McAdams, they're brilliant) - but also the slow and a bit boring buildup.

This latest episode was for me Vinces breakthrough - I really hope he keeps developing.

And I really like the way it's going since the shooting episode, just curious to see see how they can manage to make all what it's build up to in the last two episodes.
