Chalky White (Michael Kenneth Williams) is bringing jazz to the boardwalk, courtesy of Dr. Narcisse (Jeffrey Wright), who sees jazz star Daughter Maitland (Margot Bingham) as a drug delivery system. Heroin may have been around before jazz, but it didn’t have a soundtrack and without a soundtrack you can’t move to it. Gillian (Gretchen Mol) is already dancing to beautiful heroin. It makes the conversations more interesting, even if its hell on the dessert. Yeah, that’s a bad omen and I think Roy Philips (Ron Livingston) can sniff it. When you’re itching for a fix too long, you get sloppy and your ice cream melts. When your ice cream melts you’re on a downward slide. I hope they don’t turn Gillian like every other cautionary tale junkie on TV. Just once don’t turn it into a tragic don’t-let-this-happen-to-you thing. William S. Burroughs was a junkie into his 80s, so there are other stories to tell. Just saying. Every college campus has a dealer. If you don’t know who it is, ask your RA. Eli’s kid is a budding dealer. Not drugs, though college kids probably did everything there was to do, but what they did most in the twenties, was booze. It looks to me like Eli’s kid, is feeling straitjacketed at the button down school where he’s BMOC on account of he can get the booze. Mickey may have given him a fat lip, but he knows talent when he sees it on the way up and he squared himself with the kid, because he knows one day, and that day may never come, where he’s gonna want to call on him for a favor. Okay, so going straight isn’t in the cards for Richard Harrow (Jack Huston), Rick to his old friends from the old neighborhood, which is rustic. You could hide Walter White there with a barrelful of millions. That works out for Rick and Emma, though, because woods are convenient for hiding bodies. Too bad he couldn’t keep his gun buried. Good to see him try a joke though, a small one, but good enough for family.
