#ep.14

sweet alex. i know you still care about shari.

I find it odd that in the scene where Vegas finds his dad shot on the floor, he switches his gun from his left hand to his right and then points it at Korn. I think him switching the gun from one hand to the other and looking up at his uncle was a silent "WHY? Tell me why and it had better be a good reason!" His hesitation to shoot is Vegas' natural reaction - confusion and betrayal - being overridden by his main vs. minor family brainwash (he goes from starting to cry to looking at Korn with wrath). (also: Bible is doing some Al Pacino level acting in these scenes) Also, how telling that Korn didn't react like a man with a gun pointed at him. He would have watched his bodyguards execute his nephew with even more detachment than he killed his brother with. Vegas was always on his own in that cursed family. They always treated him as a stranger and as someone tolerated only while he was of use. Vegas may have been depicted as the demon of the family, but I'll be damned if I don't feel like chugging a Red Bull and sprouting wings to carry him away from his asshole clan, every time I see him. Pete and Macau can travel in my pockets. *spits in Korn's grave so he can never rest, in now desecrated soil once his bitch ass kicks it*
