I don't know why but my brain just automatically assumes that it's a fake penis anytime there's male full frontal nudity.

It probably is, lol.

Guys, have you seen the opening credits theory?

If you pay attention, the painting that appears in each actor's name reflects and/or give hints about their characters. Some are pretty obvious.

The intriguing thing is that Lochlan appears floating in a lake.

I'm torn because I don't think they'd give such a major hint in the opening credits like that, but it's there. Look.



There's also a theory that Saxon could be poisoning or will poison Lochlan. Remember the poisonous fruit Saxon asks on Ep 01? And his insistence on giving Lochlan the shakes?



Edit:
This post shows better:

Oh, and Chelsea is also an intriguing one.

Either she's going to be killed, or kill someone, or witness a murder.

Maybe all three!

Double standard.....lawd...

Yeah, there was so many ways he could've addressed the awkwardness of asking about his genitalia without making those stupid comments. Ugh...

Well, talking about cameos, I certainly didn't expect

Spoiler

Sam Rockwell and his crazy monologue!

Lol, it was unexpected in a lot of ways, lol.

Film critic Peter Travers on surprise guest star (no spoilers)

Well now that we know...

Spoiler

I should have known that Sam Rockwell would cameo since he's Leslie Bibb's boyfriend and he's also friends with Walton Goggins but I never expected THAT monologue from him. Outstanding work, also Goggins with some A-tier reaction shots.

Rick, speechless, saying "uh, uhum" killed me. Goggings is so funny and so good.

Also, I thought I saw a swastika tattooed on one of the russians chest while they were in the pool. I thought it was weird because the scenes after he's wearing the shirt only on one side, covering the tattoo.

I googled and didn't find anything, so I guess it was nothing. And I'm too lazy rewatch the scene frame by frame.

 

[Deck Rickard]

That monologue reminded me of Christopher Walken’s monologue in Pulp Fiction lol.

 

[Sawyer]

My God…

Spoiler

Rockwell’s monologue was so wild that his wife’s character couldn’t even enjoy a night with two hot guys and their intense bald friend.

I definitely need to start seeing some fallout from Ratliff's money-laundering shenanigans with the Ke Huy Quan sound-alike ASAP.

Wasn't a sound-alike, that was actually him.

 

[scarlet-witch]

I finally caught up and Rockwell's monologue STILL wasn't what I was expecting.

I just want my girl Belinda to have nice things and be okay by the end of this season.

Wow, this show takes us places we never wanted to go, lol.

I can hear Arnold’s voice so clearly.

“Patrick, vhat did you do with your bruthah!”

It's about to get crazy. These last two episodes have been great, everything that's been set up during the season is ready to climax. No idea how this is going to go down, but I'm excited.

I hope Belinda and Pornchai works out Also, I thought it was interesting how Sritala was clearly suspicious and not buying Rick's bull****, but her dream of a second chance at stardom won, and she let him come to her home anyway.
