The Devil's Advocate
Call me Dad
the creator said Rust is like a man who has no respect for "social laws"son, my man Rust was taking them joints to the HEAD
he's a baaaad baaaaad man
This episode completes the picture of his "cynical" world view. Losing his wife and daughter. Going undercover and having no meaningful contact with the real world. Getting shot in the ribs and managing not to be killed. Taking EXCESSIVE amounts of drugs while undercover. Then sobering up and being one of the best detectives on the squad. Dude has been to hell and back. I no longer see his disdain for religious people/beliefs as purely an academic/philosophical stance. He fukkn LOATHES them. His tombstone would read, "What in the fukk do you know about salvation?"
he's that crazy guy on facebook, who says all the crazy shyt you think to yourself, but won't say in public cause it's not "right"
he basically just living life free.. fukk society and what they think.. fukk you and what you think.. fukk the "rules" and "pc" he just tells you straight up, no chaser, no sugarcoat..
I think the only difference in him then and now, is that in the past, he seems to just do it.. in the now times, he seems to enjoy doing it
