We knew somebody had died, by the owl’s appearance. I will watch it again because I thought I saw Branch spin and look behind him. And poor Hector. All he ever did was exact revenge on people who hurt the innocent.
I felt bad about Hector, too-not all enforcers are bad.
I’ll watch it again on Sunday-the next time it will be shown on DirecTV-I don’t have my recording stuff set up here-to see what details I might have missed.
What if launching that clay pigeon was a signal to someone else lurking close by-maybe with a shotgun?
After all, we know now that Barlow is capable of just about any crime for his own gain-and if he blew away his own son with a shotgun at point blank range, I doubt any alibi would fly, money or no-especially with Walt. It would have to look like an accident-something that can happen to sport shooters-it wouldn’t be the first time a gun range or hunting accident turned out to be murder. Nighthorse has no use for Branch, so I’m sure he’d loan another of his soldiers to Barlow for the deed-maybe that is a contingency plan he and Barlow were talking about in the surveillance video Branch got-just in case Branch proved too nosy or uncooperative... ...
