Official Snowfall Season 5 Thread

[Roid Jones]

Stealing your connects plug is a death sentence in the underworld. She wouldn’t have even dared to try if that was anyone other then nephew.

You see it, that's why I laugh when people are talking all this it's just family and they should work it out stuff, what Louie did is a major declaration of war

 

[dat aint da same sandwich]

Franklin: If Teddy fukked me over what make you think he won't do the same to you when he done?

Louie: I'll take my chances

 

[dat aint da same sandwich]

How long was reed going to business with Franklin?
Him getting shot was the last straw
Andre knew about Reed
Alton knew about Reed
Rob knew about Reed
Peaches knew about Reed
Cissy knows about him
Franklin been fukking up since forever
The writers made him to be a borderline imbecile
I hate to say it a lot of the Louie hate is rooted in misogyny
They legit calling her ugly in a Snowfall Facebook group

Franklin’s biggest mistake was allowing his emotion dictate his actions. He shouldn’t have told Teddy he was out the game. Franklin should have made plans to protect himself/family/money/investments before flexing. It was super arrogant and foolish to think there would be no repercussions for that approach with Teddy!

In business it’s important to respect people and reward loyalty. Frankie and Jerome held down his business when Franklin was in jail and got shot. She also took a bullet herself! I think if after that happened Franklin should have made it 50/50 or even 25% for a while plus let them run their own thing out of state. Then once the Louie and Jerome business thrived he stopped the 25%.

That’s how you do business and maintain relationships AND allies.

Louie and Jerome learned that they had skills too! It’s only a matter of time before your side people learn the game and want their own. You can’t expect anyone to remain under your thumb the rest of their life! It breeds jealously, resent, and contempt!

Franklin’s lack of insight didn’t allow him to realize these issues. Stop rooting for the protagonists and put it into perspective and you all will see Louie ain't the enemy here, we all would have pulled the same move she did.

You're right, Louie did some underhanded shyt but Franklin made a lot of mistakes too, it's hilarious when people dream up narratives to support characters they like. I honestly wonder what these conversations would be like if Louie was not a woman.

Should’ve used these tracks

If Frank starts getting money again, they need to play "Paid In Full".

In fact, if the show does come back set in 1988, the whole season should have a majority hip-hop soundtrack.

Kane hunting down Louie's team to "You Gots to Chill".

I agree with everything but the last paragraph. You’re right that Franklin played his part in how things turned out, and when he realized it it was too late. But louie did make herself the enemy how she went about things. Does Jerome even know about that meetup?

Usually its the woman who lead with emotion but they got Franklin threatening Teddy, like he didn't just have a fellow officer killed for less.

cuttin off your family that put you on? directly undercutting ya nephew, stealin his plug he built up the rapport with? breaking off is one thing, usurpin ya own family tho..

you nikkas grimy. ionno man i know about maintaining relationships but few things stronger in this world than family you in good with

 

[who_better_than_me]

Damn big Frank didn’t have any money stashed away that had no connection to reed

It got stolen by peaches, didn’t it?

 

[who_better_than_me]

Straight outta Compton tho cmon mayne the soundtrack been spot on thus far

Yeah it was better NWA songs to use in the episode. “Appetite for destruction” would’ve been a better song. Cuz that’s the mood everybody was in this episode

That shyt probably went out the window when she got shot the first time & almost got shot a 2nd time over decisions that Franklin has made over time (getting involved in Skully vs Manboy & Kane wanting revenge for Frankie killing Kev even if it was an accident) and add in that her and Jerome were responsible for the 90% Franklin mentioned I totally can see where she is coming from. Its a cold ass game

She got shot the first time by not listening to Franklin, Frank kept telling Jerome and louie not to attend the funeral cause it’s still hot. They went anyway.

I'll have to go back and rewatch cause I remember Louie not wanting to go.

I wonder what the favor was that Theodore asked the Cia dude?
