It won't be cinematic

Damn the Gloria relationship felt so much longer in the show than it really was. Testament to the writing and acting, not a single scene there was a throwaway. Patsy finally comes across as a true gangster in this episode. Then again it's easy to threaten a defenseless woman and piss in people's pools while they're sleeping. I love that the card game robbing scene mirrors the concert robbing scene earlier in the season. They even say the same lines, but Chris pulls it off better than Jackie. When Chris tells Jackie not to move the car while he is away; Jackie does not move the car out of respect and fear of Chris even thought we can see in Jackie's face he wants to leave. When Jackie tells Matuche not to move the car while he is away; Matuche does not respect Jackie or fear him, so he just leaves when he gets scared; proving Jackie was a nobody and not to be taken seriously. The scene with Gloria and Patsy is easily the most chilling scene of the entire series. They acted the everloving that moment. Still sends chills down my spine. After the fake crying on the phone, 100% believed that Gloria slashed his tires for attention.
