Rest In Peace Quarry. I will miss you painfully.

Warning: Spoilers
This series has exploded in the thin air, without other episodes. The last image of the episode could be enough for a real ending, for instance for a theatre release movie. But you have the other characters, for whom many things need a following line. So shame that TV show is already dead. Such a shame. But I understand why, too much depressing for audiences, not enough suspense I guess. I have already said about this TV series that the characters were awesome and convincing. The heavy of the show, the southern kingpin looks like Elvis, I guess because the story takes place in Tennessee. And you have also here such a graphic violence, such as the sequence of the cop's head blows because of the bullet shot. I have never seen such a image anywhere before. So realistic for such a series which is not made for gore violence in the first place. RIP QUARRY.

Nuoc Chay Da Mon

Warning: Spoilers
A technically well made final episode which answers some questions about Mac but yet also with a sense of emptiness about it all.

It starts with a shootout at the fairground which did not bode well for Detective Olsen.

Buddy who knows he will never be free of the Broker also got beaten to a pulp by some gay hustlers. Buddy is certainly in a bad place as he falls on to his mother's arms.

Moses played his role well, he got Ruth to maybe fall in love with him but he figured out that her son has the money. Moses terrified him and took the money from him. He never returned to the diner as his mission was done.

In flashback scenes we see the platoon captain who led Mac and others into the attack on a Vietnamese village and got them to commit atrocious acts of violence on the villagers. Something that has haunted Mac throughout and even led to his stepmother calling him a war criminal. Mac confronted his former captain.

At the end Mac admits to the Broker he misses the combat, he might be going for a job as a pool salesman but the life of crime with the Broker is an acceptable substitute and it pays well.

Only the Broker truly understands Mac, he knows what makes Mac tick. I always suspected the Broker to be a shady CIA guy but the final scenes sees him involved in the heroin trade in Vietnam, the same village where Mac committed the atrocities.
