How has no one mentioned Sandy Crow yet? Bad rear end scarred motherfucker with a hole in his neck. Even the one off characters in this show are awesome. Chayton's execution was gruesome as gently caress goddamn Holy poo poo crazy Colonel Terminator wants his money back. He and the PMC mercs are going to tear some poo poo up looking for it. LORD OF BUTT posted:I'm not sure to interpret that as him being castrated or him having a micropenis, actually. Rebecca's reaction seemed to be more surprise and amusement than, y'know, "HOLY poo poo YOU DON'T HAVE GENITALS. " She was definitely horrified / surprised at first. But yea then she mockingly smiled at him at the end of the scene. But still, you guys have it all wrong. It wasn't his , but the size of his balls. they are massive

I took the Burton/Rebecca thing as he doesn't have a dick. Or, maybe he has two dicks!

Burton's a woman. It all makes sense now. Jokes aside, i feel that if anyone would value a true and loyal bro over his crazy egotitstical niece, it would be Proctor. The scene at the funeral had me at the edge of my seat, but what made me finally slip down was when Colonel Stowe described Hood as "gone soft". Also, the several Chayton vs Hood fights were all top-notch. At one point on the balcony i expected Hood to reach into Chayton's stomach and rip his guts out. And i liked the wearing down of the big guy and the finality when they ended it. Well, that leaves Hood and Stowe to level the town and the awkward tag-team of Burton and Rebecca to kill a drug-cartel or two. The next (two???) episodes are gonna be insane.

I thought it was clear that Rebecca wasn't laughing at Burton's massive sized balls but rather the fact that she won. Burton is most loyal to Kai but he can't go to Kai with this since he isn't sure how Kai will respond. With Burton defeated, there's nobody else in the organization that will be a problem.

Well, that was quite possibly the most definitive way of finishing up a storyline I've seen on TV. With Chayton out of the way and Rebecca's storyline progressing the way it does, I wonder whether this season might be the last we see of Proctor.

Clearing out all the enlisted men from Camp Genoa leaves it clear to be the final thunderdome for: -Team Hood -Team Colonel Terminator and his mercs -Kai's crew -Rebecca's MS-13 buddies -The guys who took Kai -Burton the 1-man army -Any remaining Redbones -Bunker's old Nazi buddies

I am pretty sure that Rebecca knew that she was busted (or it was just a matter of time), so she made a naive power play and let the Philly gang in on the fact that proctor was "selling" drugs to the Salvadorians on the side. Otherwise, why not grab her as well? Or, why grab Proctor's new babe? Rebecca set it all up. She is not long for the world.

I think Hood's going to save Proctor's rear end, paralleling the times it's gone the other way around. Alternately Proctor's gonna wreck poo poo.

I love this show. I've been pretty much begging my friends to watch it. I'm upset that Siobhan died. She was one of my favorite characters. Oh well, as long as Job continues to be fabulous then I guess things will be okay. Stowe mentioning Hood losing his edge was the first time I really thought about that even though it was shown in the alt-history flashback. Season one Hood would have just bashed Chayton's head in with a rock while he slept.

Only on Banshee could we describe the guy who just hunted down another man and removed half of his head with a shotgun as going soft

# ? Mar 2, 2015 06:32 |

He's gone soft because he let it get to that point. Siobhan wouldn't be dead if Hood hadn't gone soft from whatever point he was at. In the end, Chayton still got what he deserved; put down like the animal he aspired to be. Slight tangent that I don't think was ever covered: I know the Pacific Northwest/Southeast Alaskan tribes use the raven iconography that Chayton has on his back, but do the Northeastern tribes use it also? He seems to have every Native American tribe/tribal region represented somewhere on his body.

I think the Kinaho are supposed to just be generic pan-Native American, rather than representative of any particular tribe.

He's not soft, he's just lost it.

The entire point of that scene was that Hood hasn't actually gone soft, as we see later- Col. Stowe thinks he has Hood nailed down, but really, really doesn't, and is gonna get his poo poo pushed in for it.

My favourite scene this season was Rebecca and Burton teaming up and attacking the van. They worked really well together and I thought they were going to become closer allies.

Stowe is a loving terminator though. He was kinda having his way with hood and then just dominated inside the van.

AAA DOLFAN posted:Stowe is a loving terminator though. He was kinda having his way with hood and then just dominated inside the van. I think he had the advantage of surprise and also of close quarters, where a Marine with his training would excel if this show were trying to be like real life, which it totally isn't I think Hood will totally take him in the almost-inevitable fight this season. It's just that no one was ready for Stowe to actually go all Robert Patrick on their asses in the van. You will note, however, that in the tunnel, Hood popped him good and dazed him long enough to be able to get in the van. Still not sure how Stowe took like three shotty blasts, though. That's a stretch even for Banshee

By the way he took the rounds if they were beanbag rounds, my guess is he had plates in, but beanbag rounds will knock a man on his rear end regardless.

Small rounds are less lethal than a shotgun. Don't we still have an insider on the show in this thread, he should ask what the what was with it.

I mean, dude had a plate carrier on it looked like, but whatever the gently caress he was doing just walking around with it on is anyone's guess. Without the plates it's a nuisance, with the plates? gently caress that poo poo. Hated wearing body armor every day and I continue to hate it even though it's no longer in my life. gently caress that poo poo with a fork sideways. He couldn't have had time to get that poo poo on either, he had to have it on already, otherwise it's a mess what with getting it on over his head and making sure it was snug with his torso and any sane person would say gently caress it can't I just go out without it? Basically, what this boils down to, does this bro just walk around, 24/7, ready to go terminator on some poor wretched fucker's rear end?

The ceramic SAPI plate is made to take one, possibly two, rifle round and shatter. The bean bag, at the range Stowe was shot from, probably did not have enough time to expand and disperse the force of the blast. So I could see the beanbag theory working if the first 2 rounds crack the plate and the third actually connecting to slow him down. Did he have a flak jacket on along with the plate? Those are Kevlar, that could help disperse the force as well. At the minimum, Stowe should have some broken ribs.

If the people in this series would be as vulnerable as in real life, the show would just be a protagonist slaughterhouse, and its actors would only get one-episode contracts, though.
