Ep 8. Hedgehogs

Franklin Saint is back with the latest Snowfall's episode 'Hedgehogs'. The pace of the show after last week's explosive hour only continues to intensify and unfold in interesting directions. This episode delivered a potent mixture of suspense, brutality, and tension. The episode took us back to the moments leading up to the drive-by shooting that left both Leon and Franklin's father, Alton, lying in mortal danger. Suffice it to say, there are some big developments that push both Franklin and his crew to the brink as they try to pick up the pieces and stay a step ahead of their enemies.

The beginning of the episode opens with Franklin receiving some unpleasant news about Leon, who was critically wounded in the drive-by shooting that occurred at the end of the previous episode. The show then jumps back in time to just before the shooting as the characters carry out their day-to-day business. There are some tense moments that build up to the final act of the episode, which involves a thrilling car chase.

One standout aspect of this episode is that it really emphasizes the importance of trust in the drug game. Franklin spends much of the episode trying to determine who set up the drive-by shooting, and his journey leads him to some unexpected places. Meanwhile, Teddy and Gustavo are grappling with some trust issues of their own as they work together to smuggle drugs into the US from Mexico.

There are a few key scenes in this episode that really stand out. One of the most memorable scenes involves Leon and Franklin's aunt Louie as they try to keep Leon alive and out of the hands of the police. This scene is incredibly tense and suspenseful, and it really drives home just how high the stakes are for these characters.

Another standout moment in this episode involves Teddy's meeting with a Mexican drug lord who is interested in doing business with him. The scene is incredibly well-written and acted, and it adds a layer of complexity to Teddy's character that we haven't seen before.

Overall, 'Hedgehogs' is another strong episode of Snowfall that will leave viewers wanting more. The show continues to excel at building tension and suspense, and the character development is top-notch. It's clear that the stakes are higher than ever for these characters, and it will be interesting to see where the show goes from here.
