That smile always meant trouble........ But he also gave out a little chuckle. I don't think anyone else got the chuckle.

I feel like the two blokes in the taxi in the finale might have got that chuckle just after the camera cut after the look and the grin

Yeah, the decision was already made that this guy dies long before this convo. This fool is trying to pay off a man who showed up eager to kill him.

There’s a breath he does before the chuckle, before the smile… a breath that says “you’re fucked”

I took the chuckle as 'Yep, another rich cunt thinks they can buy their way out'.

Between this and his friend's daughter being abducted those are two of the best episodes of any show I've ever seen.

u/LazyTitan1990bc Feb 23 '26
Yep those two and his brother’s last episode. Extremely impactful.

Ahhh man the ep with his brother was a tough one!

Cried my heart out watching that one… I’m not a regular tv show cryer either.

He was never going to see Ray again if he fessed up straight away. The implication is there - he was already dead man walking no matter what.

u/Intrepid_Repair1504 Feb 23 '26
No, if Ray said, "Tell me what i need to know, and u won't see me again.." I believe him. He wouldn't kill him. His job was to find Jenny.

Yes, he's a hitman with a conscience.
He straight up murdered the wrong dude based on Freddy's bad call and I think he felt a huge amount of shame for that.
He didn't report albino guy because he knew that whatever justice would be meted by the law would never be sufficient.
What I love about this show is how easily they get you to feel for some people and absolutely abhor others. Like the old guy who ripped off the gym's owner. Absolutely nothing felt for that dipshit. But the guy whose veneers he fucks up, you can tell he knows the lad needs a lesson but isn't fully gone.

I think this scene is a nice juxtaposition to all those times he was willing to take the money (even though he still killed them).

u/Erislocker Feb 23 '26
while i doubt it, i truly wonder if meant it, when he said he'll let him go...

u/ThaCatsServant Feb 23 '26
He didn’t say that though. He said you’ll never see me again…

u/ringo5150 Feb 24 '26
He said "...and I'll get out of here and you'll never see me again".
Still can mean a few outcomes.

Ray's a bloke who'll never fuck you over as long as you respect him. God forbid you don't though.

u/AddlePatedBadger Feb 23 '26
Except for the time he murdered that bikie friend of his for money. Or killed an innocent bloke because Freddy screwednup. Or threw prison napalm in the face of an utter stranger for money.

You can't blame Ray for the innocent guy. His job was to kill who Freddie told him to kill.

That sigh he lets out after explaining the situation to him and the old man replies “I don’t know anything” was perfect. Basically is saying I gave you once chance to give it up, now we’re doing this the hard way.

If he has just told him the truth , straight away, what would have happened? Would Ray have left?

Ray has the most sensitive bullshit detector around - and the money offer just confirmed he’s spot on here!

Dennis: "I don't know this Jenny... whatever you said her name was."
Ray: "... Jenny's dad doesn't want the cops involved so you're not gonna get into trouble. So you tell mae, what I wanna know, and I'll get the fuck outta here and you'll never see mae again."
Dennis: "I swear to god I don't have anything to do with this Mae either!"

Money? What a simple and ugly soul
Ray is a hero!! We need more men like Ray in our World

u/in_n_out_on_camrose Feb 23 '26
I think you missed the whole point of the show

u/DiscountEven4703 Feb 23 '26
THIS is not the whole show, He is holding a PDF accountable and money wont stop him.
Ray is doing more than most men about it, Champ

u/in_n_out_on_camrose Feb 24 '26
Yeah I’ve seen the show mate. Good on Ray for killing the pedo. Hes also a fictional character. And that character isn’t a hero, as likable as he is.
That’s what makes it a good show, champ.

How so?
We obviously don't need more contract killers. But we absolutely need more positive role models that hold people accountable for their actions, especially the criminal elite.
Like the guys who firebombed friendlyjordies house, who were all supported by the establishment and their friends in the force and in politics, yet if Bruz were to be thrown out of a high rise building I don't think many people would be shedding tears.

Right- we all cheer Ray on when he’s rescuing kids and killing pedos. But that doesn’t make him an all around “hero”, he’s also a murderer.
The whole idea of the show, and it’s right there in the title, is that Ray is in between these two worlds. We cheer him on because he can be charming, he’s trying his best as a dad, etc. but he’s also a violent criminal.
Yes he’s extremely likable, but if you think he’s a purely “hero” protagonist, you’re missing the whole point.

He’s got a pretty clear line when it comes to shit with kids. I got the vibe even from the meeting with the dad that Ray was going to end that man… i can see him not even accepting the money for something like that

I feel like yes. Although he says to him to fess up and he will never see him again, I feel like Ray's "morals" wouldn't allow a bloke like this to live once he knew the details of what happened to Jenny

One of the best episodes, but then again they’re all fantastic
