he’s an earner...plain and simple
easier to replace rudy (w/ tommy) than it is to replace vincent...second he loses his value or becomes replaceable tho then it would be a different story

She never had a plan. Bishes like her convince theyselves being a ho is their choice and they're cool with it. Facts are they were so fukked up from jump they can only relate to the world transactionally. You ever think Lori liked CC or that Cali joke of a dude for one second?
It's a rare ho who really does want and enjoy the life and chooses it, and doesn't just take it cause the obvious or hidden reality is there's no other options open.

Knowing her story would not end happily, Emily, how did you choose to play Lori out of the gate?
Meade: What made Lori interesting in the pilot, before you get to the other episodes, is that she was presenting herself in a false way at first. I think I was preemptively trying to find the layers that I was assuming would exist. How I see it, Lori comes off the bus and she’s pretending to be more innocent than she really is — but in truth, she really is more innocent than she thinks she is, and she’s getting herself into more trouble than she realizes. It’s endless layers.
Simon: You know there’s a tragedy coming, that there’s something not right here — there’s some hole in this character that she never quite gets to fill. But you also know that she’s streetwise. This world is not alien to her. That’s a lot to play. So when you go back and look at those early moments, it’s all there. The Lori that is ultimately going to get crushed is in there, but also the Lori who can go on for years and years.

Did you not watch the episode? They explain it pretty clearly.

Damn that was a good episode. Wasn't expecting that Lori shyt at all. I thought it was the trick that popped her because I turned my eyes away from the screen and just seen the splatter.
