I complained about the slight build of the actor last episode, but insofar as he was destined to be the victim of the equally slight brother in this episode, he was cast perfectly. I DO think that the brother who was goaded into beating him is covering for some sexual issues revolving around an attraction for the addict, while the older one probably knows, but also knows that the kid was/is aware of his raping the workers, and wants him silenced. They both need to be locked in a trailer and set afire. (IMO< of course.)
I understand Regina King's friend's reluctance to go along with her plan, and I admire it. I sometimes wonder if my father had an inkling that I existed, but, alas, according to my mother, he never did.
Nice of her to give Shae (I learned a name!) a cell phone, but in that place, how long before the others turn on her because she's getting "special treatment"? It really can be a horrible world.
