I don't even know where to begin. I can't believe Shane killed Lem. I had it spoiled for me and I still gasped out loud when it happened. I can't believe he used a grenade to pin it on the El Salvadorians.
This is one of those times when a TV episode has left me in a funk. Experiences like these are few and far between, but spectacular when you find them. The acting and writing have come together to create a masterpiece.
This doesn't even feel real. Seeing Lem's burned and battered body in the car literally felt like a nightmare. My heart raced through the last half hour. Seeing Shane's breakdown after he set off the bomb was just so screwed up. I was choking up a little myself.
Billings' Caesar reference near the start of the episode may have been foreshadowing. When you examine every layer, who is truly at fault for Lem's death? Shane is an obvious answer, but beyond that - Aceveda planted the seed of doubt in the strike team, Kavanaugh launched the investigation to begin with, and Emolia was the one who gave Lem up. Shane is the show's "Brutus." While he was the one to deal the killing blow, perhaps the true killer was everyone behind it.
No more words for this one. Bravo. 10/10.
