Drug Dealer’s Dream?

After the Snow

First up, Dave and Rick update the audience on what’s been going on in their lives the past week. Rick has been to Atlanta and Houston, while Dave is in DC. The hosts jump into the 9th episode of Snowfall, where the fallout after Louie and Jerome’s wedding is taking place. Buckley’s hit on Kane has gone badly and he’s being suspended from the force and drug tested. The double cross has come into full view now, with Leon and Franklin learning that Louie paid Buckley to take out Kane and also has begun buying directly from Teddy. Mental health is once again a topic of discussion as Leon takes back his copy of the book The Wretched Of The Earth from Franklin. Rick says he never went to therapy but considers if it’s something he might still want to do. Rick’s forays into other cities around the country with his cocaine business in the 1980’s are discussed as the subject comes up when Jerome and Louie tell Franklin they are going fully on their own, which may cripple Franklin’s business. Leon’s evolution into someone who thinks deeply about the impact of crack on his community continues, and Rick discusses his own transformation from drug dealer to activist. The hosts talk about what they expect to happen in the show’s finale episode next week. After The Snow, the authentic Snowfall after show, is in full effect.
