Umm, what was with Joanie’s lesbian scene? It was hot, but….Of course Bullock wants to chase after Jack and kill him.People see him have a fit and don’t care. Jane is more comfortable with sick, vulnerable people.“Jack McCall runs from no man,” Jack says as he runs out of the Gem.But his bubble is broken when Al tells him he better get out of Dodge before he gets murdered.Jack is found “innocent.” He proceeds to get drunk and celebrate.Trixie is supposed to get the Widow hooked on more dope, but instead wants to help her get off it.Jane is such a wonderful, gentle nurse.Bullock has to help bury yet another body.“You want a blow job while I talk to you?” Oh, that Al, so considerate.Jack cleans up for his trail yet still looks like he’s caked in dirt.I love the scene where he talks to himself. Apparently “Nebraska pussy” is really good.He’s hilarious and somehow quite charismatic despite playing such an asshole. Garrett Dillahunt is great as Jack McCall.Does Bullock hate him because he talks so much? Or is Bullock an atheist or does he have some other issue with religion/God? I don’t really understand their relationship. But I feel like deep down he actually likes her. Is it bad that I find every interaction between Jewel (the gimp) and Al hilarious? He is so rude to her.She she’s taken with him, but Bullock is aloof. The only difference I can see is that Cy has not exerted his power physically over Joanie yet. And she also needs Cy’s permission to attend Bill’s funeral. But Joanie is unable to prevent Andy from being dumped in the woods. At first glance Joanie appears to have more autonomy and power than Trixie (and she also has the advantage of bathing regularly). Trixie (Paula Malcomson) and Joanie (Kim Dickens) are the two that are the most similar. Al and Cy are quite similar, although I think Al has more heart (Al has a heart?!?!). And then there’s the Reverend going on about how everyone is a part of each other (or the part of a part of a part as Bullock says).Īlso interesting is how it becomes apparent that the Gem and the Bella Union crews somewhat mirror each other. And Trixie, the whore with a heart of gold, decides to help Widow Garrett overcome her addiction to laudanum. Jane is nurse once again, this time to small pox (?) ridden Andy. Sol (John Hawkes) helps Bullock (but he always does that). Everyone has a part to play in order for the community to function. I think one theme that runs throughout the episode is the value of helping each other and understanding that we are all in this together. It is the after math of Wild Bill’s death and everyone is hurting (well not Al or Cy). This episode is very slow and melancholic. But keep in mind, 2 Hoopleheads for Deadwood is like 8 stars for another show. This episode gets 2 out of 5 Hoopleheads (every time Al says that I laugh). I’ve come up with a rating system for Deadwood, I think.
