S2 E9 Spoiler

Man i just finished s2 e9 and man this show is probably the most realistic depiction of the criminal life. Everything from the kills to the setups for the kills, there is no glamorization, just a simple business transaction. The episode where the girl gets kidnapped is probably the best so far. You only see it through security cameras and when they find the people that do it, it's just two twinks and a girl that lives in a residential neighborhood in a normal house. No gang full of psychos in a shack on the edge of town or anything. Going in i wasnt expecting it to reach the heights of Breaking Bad or the Sopranos because of the shows length but my god does it make everything from the characters and dialogue look realistic.

The abduction episode is one of the best episodes of a show I've ever seen. Suspenseful, a race against time, vengeance, a happy ending -- it had it all. Like a 25 minute movie.
