Deadwood (Season 2 - Episode 3)



Francis Wolcott, agent for the mining magnate George Hearst, arrives in Deadwood. At the Gem, Swearengen is in a bad way, lying on the floor suffering from septic shock and kidney stones, barely able to speak. Doc treats him after having to break down the door.


Ouch! The inserting of a prod into Al's private parts was one of the most painful moments I've ever seen in on-screen. Just awful, infact my skin crawls just at the thought of it. Healthcare has made some pretty good leaps over the last century - thank God!. Al's been sidelined for the entire episode to a moaning patient, and not the scheming bastard he is, and Bullock seem to be domesticated by his wife and no more hanky-panky with Alma.
