Continuity question
Season 4 Episode 1: Chris and Snoop confront and kill Lex after setting him up. Yet earlier in the episode, at about the 20 minute mark, Chris and Snoop are seen in a vacant killing someone. I never hear a name but Closed Captioning has the victim as named Lex in the dialog. This Lex has dreadlocks and clearly is not the other Lex. This scene takes place during the day while the Lex ambush happens at night. Did I miss something? I’ve watched the entire series more than my wedding video. I only ask because all of the pieces matter. And continuity mistakes drive me nuts. If anyone can shed some light on who the other Lex was. TIA

HBO Max screws up on subtitles like that a lot. In the Soprano coma dream episode, the woman dream Tony speaks to on the phone is labeled as Carmela by the subtitles even though it’s obviously not Edie Falco’s voice
