I didn't notice it, but I saw someone else bring it up on another forum so guess I'll have to see the scene for myself a little closer. If she's faking, then wow...
The thought crossed my mind but it doesn't make sense that she'd be faking it. She doesn't want Jody, she doesn't want the baby, so why pack up with both and go to AZ?

If the Brazilian guy didn't give Fiona the money, I would have assumed that Jimmy could still be alive. However, I bet the money was sort of a "severance pay" that the guy let Jimmy have. Now, whether it was to give to someone as sort of a "pay off" for his death or Jimmy just told her to have it because he knew he couldn't come back, I don't know.

Looks like we've moved past spoiler tags, which I'm fine with.

My thought was that Jimmy knew he was getting on the boat and probably not coming back, so he gave his driver/stalker/watcher/friend guy the cash to give to Fiona. That guy didn't get on the boat with Jimmy, so he's assuming Jimmy is dead, too.

Yeah, Jody is most likely gone for good. I just saw him in a preview for a new Starz show called Black Flags that will air next year.

I had a feeling they were gonna have Jimmy's body wash up on a beach on the other side of Lake Michigan.

Maybe within the first few episodes of next season.

Noooooo.. you bitch, you BITCH! Was holding out hope they would bring him back, but at least he went out like a man like that finger-breaking dude said.

I volunteer for that job.


However, I'm not sure he's dead. It just says he's not returning as a series regular. He could be alive and on the lam.

One of the tweets also said he's confirmed dead though, not a good sign.

There are few things that annoy me more than people constantly self destructing. This season has been nothing but.

Kevin's the man though..

This. Fiona is fucking stupid.

I am interested in seeing how Fiona will get out of this. She will probably lose her job...which sucks, because things started turning around and she was able to feed the kids and take Liam to the doctor.

Not very enamored with comedy shows that evolve into dramas. I think I've actually laughed twenty times this season.

Frank is a useless character with no character development. William H. Macy must be desperate for some cash.
