"Legend of the Fallen Street" S1E5: Interlocking "authority fans"

Scarlett 2022-10-20 14:59:41

This episode was fun, it seemed like everyone was dying, but it didn't seem like they were.

After thinking about it carefully, I found that "intoxicated" and "sober" existed at the same time, but in different directions and objects : Sandra thought she was interviewing a pimp, but Reggie thought he was taking the opportunity to speak up; Abby Choking at Reggie, angry about Darlene being "unrepentant", and not wearing a uniform because of her little luck, but in the eyes of Reggie, Darlene, Ashley, and Vincent, she's a criminal An ignorant girl movie; even if Vincent, who is polite in everything and has a certain degree of advance and retreat, is not blinded by the fact that he runs a brothel for Rudy?

They all think they are bystanders, but in fact they are all fans of the authorities.

When all doors are closed, windows become doors

Candy continues to practice the truth of "there is no worst, only worse", but she ushered in the dark and bright at the last moment, so she is the one who does not match the tone of the episode (so let's put it at the beginning).

The two bed scenes before and after well explained her mentality of striving to be "different".

As a street girl Candy, she only wanted to "disarm" the guests as soon as possible, and immediately put on her clothes and ordered the guests to be expelled: hurry up, dear, I still need the room.

As a single woman, Irene, after having done one with Jack, she couldn't wait for the other to take a breath, and she couldn't wait for the second shot . After Jack said that she was powerless, she turned around and masturbated.

Was it Jake who made her orgasm, overwhelmed and longing for more? Not necessarily, after all, there are countless veterans who have read D. This time, the intercourse is not necessarily different... In fact, Irene is trying to "split" the two herself. Usually, she goes to bed for money, but this time it is for the sake of dating. She kept hypnotizing herself, "This time is different..."

When they smoked after the incident together, Jack invited Erin to the party on Saturday, which meant that he wanted to go further, but Erin neither agreed nor refused.

It's not that he doesn't want to, but he is still hesitant ... When she was about to leave, Jack had to show her basic demeanor and give her the taxi money - well, the familiarity that I finally forgot for a while came back , but luckily I don't have the habit of looking for money at will, otherwise Just wear it.

The next accident came unexpectedly. Candy was attacked by robbers who pretended to be clients. She couldn't fight the other party with only self-defense spray and kicking her lower body.

Ironically, the perpetrators are quite measured, and Candy doesn't need to stitch or stick tape, luckily in misfortune...

The face value is not enough to make up for it. This injury has already helped Irene to push off her pending date with Jack in advance .

The scene of Candy and Rodney arguing at night is personally considered to be the No.1 emotional explosion in this episode. After discovering that Candy was beaten, Rodney began to just look back at her "criminal history" sarcasm. Seeing that she was ignoring her, he made a serious statement: You always think things will get better, but they're actually getting worse. , you are always alone.

It hits Candy's sore spot with precision, rightness, and power, with all the weariness and fragility evident.

As Rodney wiped away Candy's tears, Candy almost surrendered, almost.

After an instant loss, Candy immediately regained her strength and stubbornness , and rejected Rodney's "olive branch" again. Now, Rodney is really angry: You have first-class acting skills and outstanding appearance, so don't come out and stand on the street. , Selling Y and pretending to look down on others... You don't understand the situation at all.

This scolding made Candy scolded and woke up.

When another potential customer looked at him and asked for the price, Cantimer turned and left silently - after thinking about it, Irene finally made up her mind, sister quit!

It’s easy to say goodbye, but it’s hard to make money to support the family. If you want to live, you have to make money, so Irene reconsidered Harvey’s request and made a fake movie.

Unexpectedly, after all the doors were closed, the window that was meant to be climbed became a door : This time Harvey told her that there were no "community standards" in New York, so he could go back to his old business.

After being abused by blood for several episodes, Irene finally ushered in a promising turning point.

The less understood, the more indulgent

In the early 1970s, even in New York, the gay community was not as happy as it is today when the rainbow flag was flying, just look at Paul's experience.

Vincent asked Paul to post an advertisement for a bar, asking him to draw a picture, and Paul had to say "I can't draw." Huh? Aren't you (the group) all multi-talented?

Misunderstanding No. 1: To think that all comrades are artists.

This is a relatively "good" misunderstanding. Franky is another way of thinking. Men are +, women are -, so you guys must have sex all day long~

Myth 2: Comrades have the strongest sexual desires and get the most rectification.

This kind of misunderstanding is not very friendly. Franky's seemingly sarcastic remarks may turn into insults if you change someone, but Paul, the bartender, has long been accustomed to this and can only laugh it off.

Boyfriend Art often works overtime and has nothing to do with himself. When Paul is free, he can only go to the cinema to watch G movies to relieve his loneliness...

Occasionally, I meet a man I can see and want to have a good time with him. Paul didn't refuse, but he was arrested by the police as soon as he appeared on the scene. It doesn't matter if you are a male prostitute, just because you are gay, and it's okay to be arrested.

... Under this widely misunderstood and discriminated environment, Paul could only go one step further —boyfriend Art didn't come to the dance after all, but that didn't prevent him from finding a buddy to go back and have another 3P.

In the invisible predicament, Paul had no way to go out, and he didn't want to go out.

Who is the hunter and who is the prey?

Sandra was overjoyed at her results and wanted to make big news, but the editor-in-chief poured cold water on her: This is not news, and it does not meet our goals.

However, under Sandra's request for compromise, she still has the opportunity to continue the interview.

Art comes from life, and without investigation, there is no right to speak. By following Auston and Flanagan out on duty, Sandra is slowly starting to understand the cat-and-mouse game more fully.

The prostitutes have to rest, the police have to rest, everyone is begging for food on the street, and no one can do anything about it...

Auston seemed to really want to pursue Sandra. Not only was he a peacemaker between the other two, but he also took the initiative to invite Sandra to dinner. The latter also borrowed a donkey on the slope and asked Auston to introduce the pimp to him.

However, this reporter was a little too far ahead. Seeing that Auston was good at talking, he wanted to take the opportunity to inquire about the police station's bribery.

Madam, that's not how the game is played, it's out of bounds - you're stupid and I'm not stupid, I don't know more than you anyway.

But it's okay to please a lady on a request that doesn't involve her own interests, so Auston finds Reggie. As expected of a pimp, I can grasp the essence of the problem by looking at things. Dude, this is to make it easy for a girl with an explosive head to get on the base. It's also lustful, I understand.

In the end, Reggie agreed, but he had his own considerations.

Overjoyed, Sandra came to interview Reggie, and her behavior in dealing with others revealed her lack of "social experience". Reggie didn't hide her secrets, and taught her to be a human being from the very beginning.

What really matters is Auston's conversation with Flanagan after he got back to the police car. The latter ridiculed "you're being controlled by her", while the former responded "it's a big effort", but just said " whoever decides who doesn't know yet ".

When the two were about to leave, Officer Haddix suddenly killed them and threw the envelope directly on the street. In just a few words, you could guess that it contained the tacit "hush money" (could it be salary?).

It seems that Sweeney has also learned to be smart now, and understands that there are hidden dangers in letting his officers execute orders that go against common sense, and use a better way to solve the problem - pulling everyone into the water.

Auston has lingering fears about this. People in the southern district are having a headache about taking bribes. You are so careless. Flanagan said something meaningful: I heard that the limelight is about to pass.

Auston asked subconsciously, "Who said that?" Flanagan didn't answer.

It seems that the police station has already managed the top and bottom. The executor of the big plan is not small, and can also solve the troubles at a higher level.

or pimps and prostitutes

In this episode, the "group portraits of women standing on the street" are richer , and the protagonist pimps have been replaced by Rodney and Reggie Lauf, who have not been very involved before .

Darlene asked for leave with a "mysterious mission". Larry, who was missing the main team, asked Xia Yi and Barbara to work hard to make up for the shortage. Facing such unreasonable work requirements, the honest Xia Yi couldn't stand it anymore. Especially when Barbara has paid the full amount...

If your feet hurt, then walk with your hands. If you don't earn enough money, don't even think about resting. Sprinkling sugar is easy, and Larry is very skilled at whipping.

Darlene's mission turned out to be to fool newcomers into the industry - but seeing Bernice, a 20-year-old girl who looked like a 16-year-old, Larry's first reaction was not excitement but trouble: the development cost was too high, the risks were too high, and it was so high. After working for many days, you will bring me back such a gross product?

Although Larry didn't want to take Bernice in, but he didn't want to miss the chance to make a fortune , so he discussed with Rodney: I have young teeth, are you interested?

Rodney is worthy of being a pimp with "Sister Elephant Legs". He really has the intention to look at the person before paying, and take it away for $2,000 (the price was then raised to 2,500).

Of course, Rodney's most eye-catching performance in this episode is the remarks that wake up Candy, and even I can't help but want to applaud him.

The mercenary adults all speak with a purpose. The first half of the sentence keeps provoking Candy, just to strip her of her fragile disguise and defenses, capture her, capture her, and then exploit her.

Rodney almost succeeded... But after being rejected again, he couldn't help but say the truth when he was so embarrassed .

"...you can't control anything... you're absolutely the poorest, saddest, craziest bitch on the street ... you're the one who needs to figure things out ."

The pimp is the most hypocritical and the most honest, and the naive and reserved are not used to the business of skin and flesh.

This rule is applicable to Degenerate Street (except Richie), Reggie sat at the bar and prepared to order some drinks, so he let the stinky girl take a picture, and she was ridiculed by her words and taught her some principles of life. He actually dared to pour the wine and lose his temper, and turned against her!

If Vincent hadn't put out the fire at the first time, Reggie guessed that he would have taught him a lesson. Don't tell him "don't know like a child". He is so mature and still works in tights at the bar. It's time to take responsibility for your own words and deeds.

Speaking of being interviewed by Sandra , it was obvious that he was doing Auston a favor, but Reggie dared to take risks to talk to reporters, and apparently also had the idea of ​​"voicing" for his own group.

No one is simple. In the first episode, I used him to control the girl with white powder. It was too naive.

However, Reggie's upper beam is still not upright, and his lower beam is crooked: Melissa was instigated by Barbara to steal money from clients, and it was obvious when the two chatted in the bar at the beginning.

This also explains why Barbara can easily come up with $400 despite the increase in workload...

The specific process is that the two people of "Love is better than Jin Jian" teased the guests to play double flight with them. Melissa tried her best to entangle the guests, and then Barbara, who was in charge of the matter, washed the skin. Just be innocent.

I have to say that the behavior of the two is broken, and more importantly, it is impossible for every client to be a fool. If they continue like this, something will happen sooner or later.

The newcomer Bernice was "cheated" to come to New York by Darlene, but she is obviously not as naive as she looks, or it should be said that her "ambition" is not small . Do it hard.

It's a good thing to have determination. After Rodney gave her the nickname "Jin Ji (Jiang Jiang)", he let the two seniors Ruby and Tiffany take them to work.

"Sister Elephant Legs" will continue to serve as the "intimate and kind-hearted eldest sister" in this episode. Since you want to do this, you can do it well. It's okay to lose money and make less money if you are not familiar with the business process at first, but the sooner you get on the rails, the better. What my sister said was the truth.

There is only one short scene between CC and Lori in this episode - when Ashley came to pay the money, she saw Lori with tears in her eyes and pear blossoms and rain, and she turned her head and smoked a suffocating cigarette. It seemed that she was suffering again. CC accepted it. Qian said impatiently to leave some personal space for them.

Recalling the last episode of Lori's demonstration to Ashley, the world is really unpredictable. It seems that experience is still a very important professional quality. In this duel, Ashley pulled one back.

Although Lori is in the limelight, he is still a little more tender, and CC can only be patient and slowly transform ... However, there seems to be a more interesting and bolder guess: It is said that a pimp is impossible to fall in love with a young lady. God has a fool accidentally committed a second?

My life, I choose

After accepting Abby's "kindness", Darlene really went home to have a look. Through her ex-boyfriend Roger, we learned that her real name is "Donna".

The localized translation of what she said to her little sisters in her hometown is probably as follows: Of course, such an earthy boyfriend will be around for a long time. Besides, my current man is old and rich, you should go to the big city with me to meet the world, There are only things you can't think of, and you can't do it without you. Look at Sister Na, I'm the best example... Can you follow me?

——Hey, I heard that Xiao Li, the head of the village, went into the ditch with his father's newly bought Sanbongzi. ——God, does Xiaonan know about this? —I don’t know, I heard that he was with a girl from the next village. —God! Xiaonan really doesn't know? ! ...

A bunch of cowards talking about trivial, pointless things all day long...

The speaker is intentional, the listener is intentional, the waiter Bernice deliberately came out to talk to Darlene: Sister Na? Are you a model? In the big twist city? That's awesome...

So Bernice took the bait, and when she knew the truth, Darlene began to prepare the explanation.

Darlene didn't think about being good at all, she just didn't want to waste Abby's heart . From her conversations with other girls, Darlene went back to live at her cousin's house (should have met the only close auntie) ), and did not go to see the parents at all.

"They will only ask me for money, as if I was born to pay their debts." This setting is not surprising at all.

However, Abby, who came to find out, didn't know. Facing her eyes full of doubts and reproaches, Darlene responded silently :

I think you may have made a mistake. I accepted your ticket and did go home, but that doesn't mean I won't come back to do this... You don't really think that just a few words will change my life, right? ? Don't be selfish and point fingers at my choices.

If Darlene used to sell herself in a confused way, after she started to read and became more sophisticated, she gradually understood why she wanted to sell herself—I think she likes this profession that can dominate her life! I should "rescue" more people and develop a few more downlines to become mothers in the future.

Weak ideal vs strong reality

The most contradictory and helpless person in this episode is Abby, who has fallen into the deep pit of "heart is higher than the sky, and life is thinner than paper".

Of course, Abby, who dropped out of school, couldn't cut off her ties with her classmates. After Ivan, who wanted to chase her, helped her get the camera back, the two went to the party together (Vincent was also jealous) - but now, she is back again. In this kind of vain, rhetorical occasion, Abby has been uncomfortable in every possible way...

Abby, who is more mature than her peers and has seen the real society, will naturally dislike the boredom of student parties , so she can only say goodbye to Ivan and leave.

But the contradictions that humans, and hate a thing the same time, it will always miss the good side can not help but take the camera work during ...... beat the East beat the West, made in front of Reggie's taboo, Hurray, the lady that The heart of a young man who has nowhere to put it and is eager to fight, the most despised thing is a pimp like you who oppresses women, come and fight!

If Vincent hadn't hurried to make peace, Miss Abby would have to taste the suffering of the world again...

The more painful thing is yet to come. I thought that Darlene went home to "rehabilitate and be a new person", but she didn't expect that she not only came back by herself, but also took other little girls to "jump into the fire pit".

After the face-to-face confrontation with Darlene failed, the sullen Abby couldn't help expressing her puzzlement to Ashley: Why did she want to come back and live a controlled life?

Ahaha... Pampered little girl, are you still relying on your parents to support you? Happy people are generally similar, but unfortunate people have their own misfortunes... A girl like you who has just touched the ground and can't even stand firmly can understand other people's difficulties, and what qualifications do you have for others? Choose to make irresponsible remarks?

Let me teach you a lesson: Dads, husbands, pimps are all the same, they just like you the way you are until you try to change...at least the pimps don't hide.

After all, Ashley turned to leave, she had seen many such innocent moral guards.

And if Abby is so idealized in the real environment before fully realizing his weakness, it will definitely not end well.

Small game king, big game piece

The protagonist Vincent doesn't have many roles this time, but he is the one who can best embody the theme of this episode.

Abby, you're a waiter, playing with the camera during working hours, taking pictures without Reggie's opinion, and making sarcastic comments and sparring with customers. Your behavior is naive, and the reason is even more naive!

Even if the two of us have a leg, you can't be so foolish!

Abby's increasing rebelliousness and innocence have also had a bigger and bigger impact on the business of Vincent's Bar . The next time she goes to work, she won't even wear tights - this is our uniform, and you make me very happy. It's hard to do. Allen has already raised questions. What if others follow suit?

It can be said that Vincent's maturity so far is second to none... But how far can he achieve when faced with "stepping challenges"?

Here is a message from the reader "Robiya" (that is, the one who submitted an analysis of an interview in "Legend of the Fallen Street" on the public account) in the third episode of the drama review , because the WeChat background relationship has always been No display: " I have a hunch that it will be a big game in Degenerate Street. Maybe someone wants to legalize the sex industry (refer to the third season of the wire) and it has been successful for a while, and then it is a big mess, which involves gangsters and police. , the game of government.

Now that the fifth episode is finally revealed, Rudy really intends to let Vincent run the newly opened brothel .

However, in the face of such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Vincent hesitated and said bluntly that he would not agree, but his brother shouted, "Are you stupid?!"

Franky was eager to try because he could prostitute for free in the future, while Vincent did not want to pimp because he was cautious: opening a bar is legal business, at most playing a gray border ball, but opening a brothel is a serious illegal business. It's too risky ... So Vincent rejected Tommy in person.

But Vincent just didn't dare, not didn't want to, he refused, in fact, he also meant to test the other party: Is this an offer that cannot be refused? If it is, it is a set, if not, it may be really messed up.

Tommy's indifferent attitude gave Vincent a reassurance, and it was Bobby who really helped him make up his mind - persuading Vincent to be unfavorable, he finally threw out the killer: I can't go back to the construction site, I'm going to be laid off , and I want to earn money to support my family.

Bobby's attitude of "As long as you agree, leave the rest to me, everyone can make a lot of money", and finally persuaded Vincent, who had been itching for a long time: this pit, I jumped!

Naturally, Rudy welcomed Vincent's "change of mind" to make a fortune in partnership, and showed the "do whatever you want" as a hands-off shopkeeper, giving Vincent enough autonomy.

——You will have to bear the blame for what happened in the future. Of course, the less I get involved, the better.

Even though Vincent never dispelled his doubts, he couldn't hold back the unanimous approval of others and the desire to make a fortune. After he nodded, the whole process went very smoothly.

Obviously, Bobby has more ideas than himself, looking for the best construction team to decorate, and he is very considerate and forward-looking to put forward the concept of "cleaning" .

Those pimps out there are so capable, the girls who can be in charge of them can count on one hand, and we have to make the largest, most, most powerful, best, and most advanced brothel!

Now, everything is ready, and I only owe the lady .

Vincent stood on the bar table where he had just seen the prototype. He seemed to have foreseen the drunken gold fans and wine ponds and meat forests in front of him in the near future. He was looking forward and hesitating, excited and hesitant.

He was like a big fish that had long been king in the pond, looking at the bait in front of him that didn't look like it had a hook and drooling, and finally bit it with great caution... After digesting this fat bait, in the future he He can go swimming in rivers, lakes and seas, but if the hook suddenly moves, he can only go to the chopping board and be slaughtered.
