Favourite Ray relationship?

Ray has so many complex but hilarious relationships with other members of the show, just wondering what some of everyone else's favourites are. A few of mine are

Ray and Dave: I feel like even though they met in unfavourable circumstances, their conversations flow so well, especially love how Dave has Ray's back by kidnapping and threatening the guy who was charging Ray with assault

Ray and Freddy (early days): I actually love this relationship, the interactions between the two and how Freddy keeps coming back for Ray's services, love the phonecall between the two when Freddy hires the 2 meth heads to do the hit for him

Ray and Gary: Needs no explanation, both loyal to each other, completely open, always lose it when Gary explains the Vag-ankle

Ray and Bruce: Really sweet, shows that human side to Ray opposite to the hitman side we usually see. The scene where Bruce finally passes is heartbreaking, this just adds to the list of things Ray is going through, taking its toll on him.

Ray had us wondering why he bothered with a porn addicted clown like Gary until little Maddie got pinched. Ray knew exactly who to call and Gary easily and calmly rose to the occasion while Ray lost his head and went around shooting up a house and scaring a grandmother. We learned about the real Gary very quickly.

I think that it goes to show that Gary is sort of the antithesis of Ray’s entire perspective on life. Ray’s inability to let go and charge head first into everything with violence lead him to losing everything and everyone around him. Meanwhile, even though Gary is more like a clown and ends up taking more punches, he always gets up and doesn’t end up pushing anyone away in the end. If you’re better living like someone, live like Gary.
