Rabbit is visibly delighted to finally get revenge on the man who turned his little girl against him. Rabbit and his men are on their way from New York City to get Hood from the location Carrie tipped them off about. It is more like war correspondence footage you see from overseas reporters, very realistic. The camera technique they use for this sequence is not the “shaky cam” that makes you sick that we saw in the Bourne movies. I felt like I was watching a hick version of Michael Mann’s Heat. In a rush, the thugs decide to leave the store with barely any take and what follows is one of the best non-theatrical foot chases I have seen, filled with car crashes and gunfire.
The clerk is shot dead because one of the thugs “saw him reaching” and the Deputy is next. Deputy Emmett Yawners (Demetrius Grosse) is at the local drug store on the phone with his wife buying home pregnancy tests when he realizes that the place is being held up by two bumbling criminals in masks. In between what happens next for Carrie and Hood is the centerpiece of this week’s episode. Despite obviously still being in love with him and Deva presumably being Hood’s daughter, Carrie feels that she must do this to restore order to her life. She just cannot do the double-life thing anymore with Hood playing such a prominent role in Banshee. Rabbit and told him she was bringing Hood to him. If you remember from last week, Carrie called her father Mr. As Hood is getting comfortable she doses him with a needle to the neck ( Dexter-style) and he passes out. Hood receives a random call from Carrie and he excitedly meets her at a local parking structure where she boosts a car and they both get in presumably for a job. Every line he emits sounds like a threat, but he genuinely needs to be in Hood’s presence to fully function as a criminal. Job seems to steal every scene he is in and even when he is not in drag, he still sticks out like a sore thumb because of his hysterical attitude towards small town life in Banshee. Hood, Sugar and Job are plotting the American Indian casino robbery at the old boxer’s dive bar.
If anything, “Behold a Pale Rider” shows that Hood is a man not to be trifled with in any dire situation.
BANSHEE TV SERIES EPISODES FULL
But Banshee somehow manages to make the tension come full circle, touching on all the salient points regardless of straying out of their wheelhouse. Back when The Sopranos was on HBO fans were always pissed off if a new episode did not tie into the storylines we were most invested in. However, after the hour was done I realized that it was one of the best stand-alone installments of any cable drama I have ever seen. Admittedly, I was nervous when I got the gist that they were leaving the beaten path because the show has been on such a dynamite roll. For the first time in its freshman season, Banshee has a solid stand-alone episode that departs from the overall narrative.
