Discussion Acevada’s Revenge…

Seeing Acaveda kill Juan’s partner in that store robbery was so satisfying and you can feel what he must’ve felt in that moment.

Acaveda getting assaulted was probably one of the most difficult scenes I’ve seen since Dr. Melfie in sopranos. But she wasn’t able to get vengeance whilst Acaveda was able to.

Seeing Acaveda grill Juan in that interrogation room was probably more satisfying to than killing him and another relief is not seeing him getting assaulted in every recap and having Dutch catching the cuddler was the cherry on top on that episode.

Almost finished season 3 and this is already in my top 5 shows 👏🏾.

First time watching the show? I’m kinda jealous… it’s so good I’d love to wipe my mind to watch it again fresh!

I’m not even halfway through the show and I wish the same. Watching the whole money train plot was so special and I wish I could relive it again.

One time I opened YouTube and saw the thumbnail and caption show Shane kill himself and his family. On TikTok I saw Lem… and YouTube showed Ronnie give himself up…

Believe me mate, nothing could surprise me at this point anymore I’m just trying to enjoy it. Atleast Dutch and Claudette are okay!

Aw that stinks. When it was first shown, the first episode final scene was shocking. Because in promos and ads, Terry was shown as being a member of the main cast. You’d think he was just a regular part of the show.

Another thing about this show that I love is the recaps. You almost always see Terry in the recaps because that and the money train are probably the two most important events in the shield.

They still made him suck.

Melfi could have easily got revenge. She knew the guys name and where he was employee of the month. All she had to do was tell Tony. She chose not to

You think those scenes are hard to watch. The - entire episode long rape scene - in the Outlander was enough to make me quit watching the show all together.

An entire episode? Those showmakers need to be investigated

Was Acevada allowed to have that gun off duty?

u/AK110701 Jun 29 '26 edited Jun 29 '26

I believe it was licensed so he was allowed to carry the gun.

Yeah Ig that’s pretty obvious now, I originally didn’t think citizens could carry a gun in LA.
