I had forgotten that this was the episode where the dog biscuit joke got off the ground.
ReplyDeleteI appreciated your analysis of the relative use/intimidation factor of the titular 'hit car'. I hadn't seen much in the way of gang fiction before this episode and hadn't reflected on it in hindsight, so it was your discussion that brought the practicalities question to my attention.
I'm enjoying going through your episodes. Thank you.
