Goddam it....that was such an exceptional episode. Perfect casting choice for Mr. World.
The themes presented in this episode are exceptional. I love the juxtaposition between old and new systems of worship, along with a simple conflict in style of how each faction goes about their affairs.
The scenes between Laura and Mad Sweeney were awesome as well. Pablo is so good at comic relief, even if it is on the dark side.
"You're an @ss****, dead wife."
Priceless.
Still hoping for a little faster pacing. My wife finds each scene to be extremely long with not much to break it up, and I don't disagree with her. But, like I said earlier, having a literary pace means that it won't lend itself well to a traditional TV audience, but hopefully people stick with it.
I find this show utterly fascinating.
