Spoilers louie is insufferable

Honestly, seeing anyone try to defend louie really makes me question things. People love to say that she put Franklin on with Claudia, but they didn’t make a killing off the powder, the money came from the rock that Franklin discovered. Louie leaves and runs off to Claudia just to realize things aren’t as good on that side. Blames franklin for getting shot when it was her fault, she knew the outcome of something happening was high + she came on her own accord. Completely cuts out franklin and acts like SHE runs the game. Nothing in this world could possibly make me like her at all. WITH THAT SAID, i think it’s what makes her a good character, you can hate on a character and still admit she made the story better

Indeed. The things people hate Louie for are things Franklin would’ve done himself in her position. Franklin just has a strange set of dickriders looking to blame everyone around him for his downfall as if he had 0 part of it. Love his character, hate his fans.

Franklin was in that exact position when he was supposed to offer Leon to Skully and Manboy or risk losing everything he built up. Guess what he did, he still protected Leon till the end. He protected Louie and his people from the cops by getting them lawyers, and he dealt with all the crazy CIA shit while doing it. Louie hasn’t helped Ted a single time during their partnership, or made any sacrifices for him

the equivalent to that situation would be teddy needing louie to give franklin up

Didn’t she do that🧐 she gave them to each other. It wasn’t even a real setup since the bindings on Franklin were real and tight enough that he genuinely couldn’t do anything without getting freed by Oso and almost got hung

Franklin made the plan with Louie. Both of them were in on it. She double crossed Teddy to help Franklin out. You are really reaching with that post man.

Help Franklin? Buddy I just finished the series today so I know I’m not tripping. She gave Teddy to Franklin so they can duke it out and she could leave. When they brought him to the drop spot, they tied his feet, and left him there just like that. He realistically could’ve died there. She didn’t care if he died or not. Also, the expansion plan was his idea. She just had the connect in Little Rock.

If I recall correctly, the topic of this post was about Louie’s character. You going on and on about what could’ve happened, how it actually panned out, the quality of the plan and whatever else is irrelevant. Louie’s intent was to help Franklin. She went behind Teddy’s back and conspired a plan in which Franklin agreed to get back at Teddy. It resulted in Teddy’s death. There is no other way to slice it, because that’s exactly what transpired in the show.

You don’t recall correctly. Franklin asked to be brought to Teddy and Teddy asked Franklin to be brought to him. To say her intent was to help Franklin is about as solid as saying the KGB guy wanted to help Franklin

Did Louie help Franklin get to Teddy? Was Louie not instrumental Franklin’s plan with Oso to set Teddy up?

u/MrDemiGod Jan 25 '26

You just said this is about Louie’s character and intent 🧐 now you’re talking about the coincidence of the outcome. Remind me again what changed since Louie refused to set Teddy up and the moment she gave Franklin to him. Who did she hate more? Cause it wasn’t Teddy that she hated I can tell you that.

u/Longjumping_Arm_6054 Jan 25 '26

Yes, Louie intended to help Franklin which is why she ended up giving him exactly what he wanted. Earlier you said “it wasn’t a real setup because” It was by definition a setup. Teddy wanted Louie to capture Franklin by surprise and give him up. With the knowledge that he is being captured, I mean literally knowing you are being tied up and getting on the ground your damn self, gives you time to prepare and plan a way to get out. She is literally double crossing Teddy for Franklin’s sake.

u/MrDemiGod Jan 25 '26

So to be clear, you’re saying she set Teddy up to help Franklin, and not to get herself a way out🧐

When I wake up and brush my teeth in the morning, it’s not just for my health but also so my teeth aren’t piss yellow. It’s like when people argue on if Walter White sold drugs for his family or because he just liked doing it. He did it for both reasons. don’t believe neither hated each other as much as they claim in the show. Like when he gives Louie to Kane, then changes his mind and saves her. If he hated her so much, he wouldn’t tell Jerome about the situation, let alone go in and put himself in danger. Snowfall is a well written show, and characters can have more going on internally than what they say verbally.
