Banshee Casino Fight

On this week’s episode: a new criminal enters Banshee in search of Jason Hood, Proctor and Alex Longshadow come to an agreement that favors both parties, Gordon and Deva are losing grip on their emotions, Lotus starts doing some digging on Hood, and Job delivers some bad news upon his return from New York…

To the local troublemakers of Banshee, a classic red jaguar at a small gas station is an invite to stir up some trouble. However, in this case, trouble would find them in a very bad way. Banshee’s newest baddie, Quentin (guest star, Andrew Howard), a well-dressed Brit wearing a three-piece suit, takes all three men out violently and rather quickly. Another fantastic job by Marcus Young on the fight choreography here, that featured arms getting snapped and Quentin countering one of the attackers punches with a perfectly-timed shoulder throw to the ground, all while dogs in the bed of a pickup were barking in the background.

3. The Sarajevo-born, Michigan-raised Milicevic—whose Banshee character has no shortage of brutal fight scenes—might have perfected her femme fatale vibe with roles in Enemy of the State and the James Bond flick Casino Royale but she got her start doing stand-up and still seems more likely to crack a joke than a bone.

Quentin then shows up with a fellow crony named Clover at The Forge, and we find out he is in town for Jason Hood, because Jason took off with $62,000 dollars from a gangster known as Brantley, back in Oregon. Poor timing for the younger Hood as he was just getting all his new identity info so he could skip town. Sugar shoots Clover from behind the bar with a shotgun, while Hood trades blows with Quentin. The Brit kicks Hood down and runs out the bar and drives off. Hood sits down with Jason and gets to the bottom of what kind of trouble he is in exactly. The sheriff clearly feels bad for the boy, compounded by the fact that he witnessed his father get killed and assumed his identity, so he decides to aid him in this situation he is in.

“Who is the English guy?”—Hood asks Jason

At the Savoy Gentlemen’s club—where Proctor conducts his business—Alex Longshadow pays him an unexpected visit. Turns out he needs Proctor’s help as Kinaho council member, George Hunter, now has the votes needed to vote him out as Chief of the tribe. Knowing he won’t be able to have any business with the casino without Longshadow as chief, Proctor asks for a list of the council member names who would be voting against him. As he walks out of the Savoy after shaking Proctor’s hand, you can tell that it’s killing him to have to ask him for any kind of help.

Rebecca—who was present for the conversation between the two—asked her uncle why with all his other businesses, the casino was so important to him? He explained that it is the one business of his that would look legitimate after he dies.

The BSD arrive at The Forge to investigate the shooting and get a statement from Sugar. Deputy Lotus had some terse words for Hood, mentioning how it’s quite a coincidence the Sheriff is the common denominator in every shootout that occurs in the town. Deputy Yawners agrees with Lotus that it doesn’t sit well with him either, but he—unlike Lotus—respects that Hood is in charge. He was obviously inferring how Lotus has not accepted the fact that he was passed over as sheriff.

Matt Servitto is often taken for granted on this show. He is no stranger to sharing the screen with lead characters (think back to his role as Agent Dwight Harris on The Sopranos) and always makes the most of his scenes. His role as Lotus is essential and provides a different moral compass than that of Sugar, because Hood is not his friend and he is out for the good of the town.

The very next day we see Lotus break into Hood’s apartment to do some snooping and he finds Jason Hood’s Oregon license, and a picture of the Hopewell family. Turns out he is investigating Hood for Gordon Hopewell, and meets up with him at Miles Diner and shows the photograph to the surprised DA. Digging further into the mysterious past of Hood could end up being very bad for Lotus. Remember only a few episodes ago, Job told Hood that bad things happen to those that get close to him, and Agent Racine’s death was the latest to prove that theory to be true.

“I’ll tell Hood you were looking for him.”—Sugar informs Lotus after seeing him leave Hoods’s apartment.

Things aren’t going so well for Deva. We see during one of her Drivers Ed classes, the other girls are making fun of her, prompting her to drive out of control and weave in and out of traffic. Through flashbacks we see that she did in fact catch her mother coming into her bedroom and that they spoke. When Gordon comes to pick her up, one of the other girl’s father calls Deva a “freakshow,” sending him over the edge and he slams the guy into a car and threatens to beat him up.

Carrie continues her secret visits to her old house, this time she speaks to her son Max and watches him do tricks on his skateboard.

Hood walks out of the Cadi to see Quentin sitting across the street on a bench feeding booze soaked bread to the pigeons. In a brilliantly written seen, the two have a chat about Jason Hood among other things. Quentin admires the sheriff and from fighting with him he knows he isn’t what he appears to be. He tells Hood they are similar, saying they’re both “armies of one.” Quentin is under the impression Hood is Jason’s father, and says one will more than likely have to kill the other. Hood offers a deal of $50,000 on top of the $62,000 Jason already owes him, and the Brit reluctantly agrees.

“And you don’t fight like a small-time sheriff. You my friend have the sort of skills that can’t be taught only acquired. We were all something else once upon a time eh?”—Quentin says to Hood.

While chatting with Sugar about making the deal to help out Jason Hood, the old bartender started providing wisdom without even knowing it this time. Sugar was setting rodent traps, and explaining how rats in the basement of The Forge tricked him into thinking they were gone when they really weren’t. Hood has an epiphany and realizes Quentin has probably done the same. As Sugar turns back to look at Hood, he has already left.

Quentin is seen driving out of town on the highway, and he comes to a halt as Hood is standing in the lane with a gun waiting for him. And no, this is not very realistic, but it is very, very, Banshee. The two engage in the fight to the death that was foreshadowed earlier in the episode. Quentin gains the upper hand by attempting to choke Hood with his suit jacket. Hood escapes, they exchange a few more kicks, knees and punches and then they both fall into the lane of oncoming traffic, causing an 18-wheeler to jack knife and almost kill them. As another truck is heading toward them out of control, Hood locks up an armbar on Quentin and extends his legs to push the British gangster’s head high up in the air and the trailer of the truck decapitates him.

Once again, props to Marcus Young on the fight choreography, and kudos to Greg Yaitanes and company, for never being afraid to go all the way with a scene. So far this season we’ve seen a fistfight in a diner, Hood fighting up levels of the casino like Bruce Lee in Game of Death, Nola Longshadow killing people with a hatchet and Chayton Littlestone walking through taser guns, and there is still four episodes left!

Before the episode hits it’s climax, Gordon comes home drunk and Deva has to aid him up the stairs. Max wakes up and Gordon drops down and hugs them both and begins to cry. The next morning Deva sits down next to Carrie at Miles Diner and asks her about her father Rabbit.

In a parallel sequence that shows the contrast between feelings and caring for another person versus using control and power over them, we see Deputy Siobhan Kelly and Hood at her trailer and Rebecca taking Jason Hood home for another tryst. Hood and Kelly talk about people changing and evolving, while Rebecca is getting down to business with Jason. The intertwining sex scenes show a passionate bond between Hood and Kelly followed by a dominant Rebecca forcing Jason to go down on her while standing over him. Note: she watched her uncle do this to a stripper at the Savoy club earlier in episode.

While Jason is on top of her, her blank expression turns into one of horror, as Clay and her uncle enter the room. Clay uses a garrote of piano wire to pull Jason off of her and strangle him to death; an ironic and shocking ending to his life, after being saved by Hood. Although, Sugar did warn him about Rebecca being more trouble than she is worth. Proctor tells her “Either you are with me or you’re not,” making her realize that just because she is free from the old religious ways of the Amish family she left behind, she isn’t really free at all. Next we see Hood getting dressed while glancing over at a sleeping Siobhan, perhaps wondering if he is going to bring trouble her way the longer he is involved with the deputy.

“I don’t know if anyone ever changes really, but we evolve right? Isn’t that what we are trying to do, become better versions of ourselves?”—Deputy Kelly asks Hood

After a serious episode last week that was one of the most story driven in the shows history, they dialed up the “over the top” meter once again for “Armies of One.” You would think Quentin getting his head lopped off by a tractor trailer would be enough, but then comes the scene with Clay Burton. The main assistant of Kai Proctor takes on the task of cleaning up Jason Hood’s hotel room, now that he has killed him. Usually clad in a suit with a dickie bow, the mostly quiet henchman is wearing a wife-beater while Italian Orchestra music plays in the background as he cleans up the room. We see scars on his back and flashbacks of how he was whipped and tortured. As he leaves, Jason’s watch falls out of the corner of the bed onto the floor.

“You’re either with me, or you’re not.”—Proctor tells Rebecca

After a long day, Hood heads back to The Forge for a sipper with Sugar. His day gets even longer as Job returns from New York with some bad news. He couldn’t fence the diamonds. But that’s not all. He puts one down and smashes it with a hammer, much to Hood’s disbelief. “Rabbit f**ked you,” Job tells him. Turns out he served 15 years for stealing a handful of glass.

That’s a wrap for this week #Fanshees. “Armies of One” provided the essential Banshee ingredients viewers have become accustomed to seeing: sex, violence, fights on highways and at gas stations, decapitations and mid-intercourse piano-wire strangulations. Amidst the aesthetic, Siobhan’s feelings continue to run deep for Hood, all of the Hopewells are deeply hurting inside, Deputy Lotus is doing some digging on the sheriff, and Job dropped a huge bombshell on about the diamonds. With four weeks to go and two deaths in two weeks, the race to the finish line should continue to shock us in a way only this fictitious Amish town could.

It was the end of times, and—as is so often the case with TV finales–it was the worst of times. Cinemax’s “Banshee” was one of the most consistently underrated shows on television, and in fact many readers of this article may not have even heard of the series, let alone watched it. I want to be clear about two seemingly contradictory things: the final season of Banshee was the worst of the series, but you should still watch it. I’m not kidding, even the “worst” season of Banshee is still only a B- while the rest of the series is firmly in the A-range. It’s seriously worthy of your time, and I hope you’ll think about it…

The Fourth and Final Season…a.k.a. “the worst”…Sure, it’s the worst season, but it’s also the shortest (only eight episodes) and exists mostly to give closure to all the characters we’ve grown to love. There’s a hogwash subplot about a satanic serial killing-cult—whereas most of Banshee’s villains are more criminal—and the season’s other main villains, a white supremacist brotherhood, are never as well-developed as past season’s villains, but it’s still nice to take one last trip with the “Banshee” crew. The final season would probably be better as a two-hour movie minus extraneous subplots, but I’m still grateful for the time spent. Grade: B-

The First Season…Perfectly sets up the insane world and far-fetched premise without ever becoming laughable. I instantly fell for the great cast of characters (where else can you find a banished-Amish crime Lord and a sexually ambiguous Chinese hacker and a Ukranian crime princess hiding in suburbia all in the same episode?) and riveting fight sequences, the best on Television. People who praise “Daredevil” for their fight scenes have clearly never watched an hour of “Banshee.” The lone sore spot of the season: Lucas Hood doesn’t really make sense yet and is pretty much just there to power the plot while the more interesting supporting cast is busy. Grade: A-

The Second Season…To me, this one is just a little bit better than the first season, and that’s due largely to a satisfying conclusion to the Rabbit (the Ukranian crime kingpin whose hatred of his daughter and her boyfriend’s betrayal powers the first two seasons) vs. main characters storyline, and the introduction of the series best villain: Native American supremacist Chayton Littlestone, leader of a reservation gang called the Redbones. Add in a crazy armored truck heist and conflicts between ex-Amish crime lord Guy Proctor and the reservation’s casino chief, and it’s a near-perfect season. Grade: A

The Third Season…a.k.a. “the best one”…Most of the best “standout” moments I really think about happening in “Banshee” seem to happen in this one fantastic season, from Burton and Nola’s incredible fight (again, if you think “Daredevil” has good fights, just check out this 5-minute showstopper) to the robbery of a crooked army base shot entirely in character-cameras to a confrontation with an obese gangster who lives in an 18-wheeler to Hood’s relationship with two very different women. A season that has so much going for it I can’t even think of a “best” moment, scene, episode, or even storyline, but satisfying resolutions to Chayton vs. Hood, Proctor vs. black Philadelphia gangsters, and most of the main characters vs. a corrupt army unit of elite killers are right up there. Simple amazing, and it’s only because this season is so strong that season 4 is a comparative letdown. Grade: A

End Note: The fact that it took me less than half as long to write the article as it did to decide which pictures I wanted to use–because there were dozens of great action shots–should tell you something about how many good scenes this show has produced.
