loved it. but don't get me started on bow tie. He obviously has OCD and is meticulous about everything even a wrinkle on his cuffs. But that was the second time he forgets to clean up the crime scene completely. c'mon bowtie!
I get how they play into the setting and for these events to occur, but they weren't necessary as it could have been similar situations with current plots. Proctor or the neo-Nazis could have imprisoned Brock and Hood for that conversation to happen. Veronica could be introduced as investigating Proctor's increased political power and drug trafficking. Burton killing Rebecca could be disguised as an unsolved murder, potentially framing any of the other seedy characters in Banshee.
I always thought many higher ups in the FBI already knew and just didn't care about Hood. It's not like the agent who was after Rabbit was the only person privy to Hood's information. That file gets around...no one cared about his Banshee shenanigans.
