Of course, it ends with a collision of all three.

The best episodes ofRay Donovanare often so because of a top-notch understanding of how to edit for television.

So lets start with:

Ray Donovan is Back!

Novak later asks Ray if the charges were true.

Does it really matter?

In modern politics, truth rarely does.

He even goes so far as trying to flush Jays drugs down a set toilet.

Its interesting to parallel Daryll and Ray as fixers to entitled, power-hungry freaks.

Daryll learns that on-set, although it may be a little too late.

The fake religious identities are to get the now-quartet to Montreal.

The night that Daryll finally goes to Jay Whites trailer and makes friends with him, Mickey barges in.

He asks him, Are you my son?

Is that the way a son behaves?

Youre not my fucking son.

And then he hits both Daryll and Jay with his gun.

That will undoubtedly end poorly.

One more subplot: The image of a bloody, depressed, cake-eating Mac at the end was foreboding.

Mac is losing it over the control his ex-wife has over their son.

Im worried hes gonna do something stupid to himself or someone else.

Another great music cue this week: Bionic Lover by Ebony Cuts in Jay Whites trailer at the end.

We learn that Brendan was well-endowed for an infant.

Id like a GIF of Donald Faison yelling Welcome to the entertainment industry!

Also Jay Whites Im the talent, muthafucka.

Even when Im wrong, Im right.

You probably know the former fromThree Billboards Outside Ebbing, MissouriorIts Always Sunny in Philadelphia.

The latter was great onRed Oaksand in an underrated horror flick calledBody.

Lets hope they both show up more this season.
