Deadwood (Season 2 - Episode 2)



Swearengen and Bullock lick their wounds following the battle. Bullock and Alma are discussing their future, and he proposes that they immediately leave the camp, or remain and sever connection, so spare his wife of humiliation. Joanie Stubbs and the whores begin the job of transforming raw space into the Chez Ami, the high-class brothel they envision. Alma agonizes in her hotel room over what course of action to take. Bullock gets his gun back from Al. Bullock finally go home to his wife, and they head upstairs to bed.


A bit slow this one, but it really shows the vile place Deadwood presumably was, and how life probably really was. I really love that they do show how dirty and vile it was, without any usual Hollywood 'sanitation.' The whole cast is just simply awesome. Dumping dead bodies to dispose of evidence in the pig-pen is just so disgustingly nasty it must have been done that way. Bring it on, I can't wait for the next episode, which I will see promptly.
