![]() ![]() His relationship with Van will probably help save him, and it could easily be the kind of scenario where, by the end of the season, its Mickey who escapes and Sully who ends up dead or in prison. Imagining the show without Mickey is like taking the battery out: without him as a motivator for Ray's discontent and as a weekly wildcard, the show would lack spark.įor now, Mickey looks to be ok. ![]() While the Donovan boys mope and fret, there is Mickey dancing in the background, alternatively goading them, teasing them and encouraging them to do what they shouldn't. On the other hand, Mickey has been a huge part of what has kept Ray Donovan fresh and interesting week to week. The evidence continues to mount against Mickey, and one can't help but think this season might see the end of him. Ray also blames Mickey for Bridget's death, but can't pin that on him so cleanly (the same goes for Ray's belief that Mickey was somehow responsible for Bunchy's woes as well). Another layer was added to the Ray's Boston backstory with Abby mentioning that Mickey killed Ray's girlfriend Colleen (Sullivan?), the murder he really wanted to put Mickey away for. His trip to Boston was not a triumphant one - the scars of that city weigh heavily on Ray, as he searches for answers about his sister's suicide.

This week as Ray hauled Marvin out of the house and drove him away, Bridget voiced a very real fear to her mother: "is he going to kill him?" "Come away from the window," was all Abby could offer. Ray's kids are also suspicious of him, particularly after last week's incident where he nearly killed their grandfather in front of them. Meanwhile Ray, like Walt, struggles to figure out how much to tell her (in Ray's case, currently: nothing, which is a line Walt toted for awhile too). She's suspicious of her husband and suspects he might be a monster, but doesn't know how to approach that or even begin to accept it if it's true. Fans of Breaking Bad might have picked up on Abby's shades of Skyler White early in "New Birthday. ![]()
