gotta give the actress her props although her character is basically exactly the same person as she was in brotherhood
if your character is a wife from boston, shes it
I don't recall seeing Abby on brotherhood. WHo was her character?
So messed up.
It's the way she goes about it. That's annoying. It's like she can't understand Ray has issues. Real life issues, she keeps thinking this'll be fixed with a few therapist sessions and by playing dumb.
She definitely has an issue with his work. She complains about what he actually does all the time with her snide comments.
Ray obvious has faults but given with what he has to deal with on a daily basis, especially since Mickey came back I do not slight him more than certain others.
They are both to blame, her for not listening to Ray when he told her keep Mickey out of their lives. Ray is an *******, but he still loves his family. I look at him like Nucky. They don't know how to love except to give people things [money or whatever they need}. They feel like once they do that all problems are solved. Abby has been patient, during the first two episodes she was defending Ray, while the therapist was spitting the truth. She became more patient with him after finding out he was molested. There is only so much a person can take.
Marvin wanted a better life but didn't get it in the end. I don't think there was anything he could've done to not get killed other than not demonstrate his talent. As much as dudes hated his character I thought it was sad that he was seen as property that could be bought and sold to the highest bidder.
He definitely got to experience a better life, in the first season he was neighbors with Ray. It was short lived, but he got a taste and was on his way to much more. The fighting over him is what really disgusted me. Lee and Cookie saw him as property while Recon/Monk truly loved him as a son
.
I don't get why they had to sign him over to Cookie. Why not just give Cookie his publishing and be done with it? That would make more sense for Cookie, he isn't in the music biz. Let them do all the heavy lifting while I get paid off their hard work.
i feel like recon should have known how cookie would handle it
i guess lee didnt even tell recon he tried to pay and instead insulted cookie like that
I'm confused about that too. At first I thought Recon didn't know, but when Marvin said to Cookie that he will work for him, or be down with him. I figured they had a discussion about the situation since Marvin knew. Either way Recon was slipping.
I agree that he did get a taste of a better life it just seemed like he was doomed to fail. Nothing he could've done to not get killed. Rekon sealed his fate the moment he took 30k from cookie.
Marvin was treated like property from the very beginning. His mom, Ray, Lee, Rekon all treated him that way. I always felt that the main reason he liked Bridgette was she treated him like a person.
What was the arrangement Cookie and Recon had though?
I don't think Ray met his match with Cookie. The jury is still out on that. I just think he underestimated him.
None of that is true because there was no real battle. Ray was under the impression that Lee would give Marvin over to Cookie, none of what happened is about Ray.
I just finished watching it again and saw where Abby said she didn't want the house. That only makes me dislike the character more. Just asking for **** just to do it.
I don't feel Rekon sealed his fate. It was Lee. cookie made it clear he didn't want money.
Abby doesn't wan the hous anymore because the family is done, and she doesn't fit in with the yuppies out there. After threatning to have them killed by Ray, and now being in an affair that Ray knows about it makes no sense. Also she finally realises what accepting the house would mean for her.
Ray's true motivation was giving Marvin to Cookie so that he'd be away from his daughter otherwise I don't think he would have be up for it
Word. If Marvin wasn't trying to smash his daughter he would have done whatever Lee asked of him. Cookie would be the one laying dead in the truck now if that wasn't the case.
Thought y'all knew that.
First time he was in an episode I wasn't quite sure if that was him.
I did the Weebay gif when I first saw him. All I can think about is that fight with Eli.
