Billiam Hader shrine

not sally writing a whole show where shes an amazing mother supporting her kid out of an abusive relationship and then becoming abusive towards her real life kid. not telling her agent that she has 'more to bring to the table than breakfast' only to end up as a waitress in a breakfast bar. not barry spinning a narrative to his son about being a war hero and even naming himself after superman when his son doesnt even know his real name or that they're on the run for murder. 'he thinks my name is emily' 'but he knows who YOU really are.' not hank telling barry that he didnt want to take everything for himself and wanted to split it 50/50 with cristobal only to kill cristobal and taking it all for himself but still acting like it's both of their empire. naming his business a combination of their names and erecting a golden shrine to his dead lover. everyone is acting. everyone trying desperately to live their own lie.

guys its hank right, like the wizard is hank right, the man in a literal emerald suit living in a temple to a lie and surrounded by luxury. the man whos the only living half of the couple that opened the season talking about the wizard of oz, the guy who didnt want to go home to a small simple life and instead wanted to stay in the larger than life fantasy? im not saying thats the only meaning to the episode but like, thats the difference between hank and cristobal, cristobal was dorothy and hank was always the wizard
