The strong season premiere of the seventh season of ShowtimesRay Donovanis about people trying to break patterns.
This is the better, happier Donovan family.
We all know that cant last.
The next morning, Ray takes Mickey to the FBI office to turn himself in.
That didnt stay underwater long.
Ray is going to have to come up with a cover story.
Like he doesnt have enough to worry about already.
Its not like a Ray Donovan in therapy isnt going to have to still do an often annoying job.
The little jerk tells Ray about how he has a habit of sleeping with the mothers of his fans.
They ask NSync Jr. to go to their daughters birthday party, but theres a sexual price to pay.
Well, one of the moms has some photos of Hansen and is threatening blackmail.
Its no wonder Ray needs to take a bat to things every now and then.
Meanwhile, Terry Donovans Parkinsons Disease is getting worse.
If theres anyone who deserves a little happiness, its Terry Donovan.
While her uncle is tripping, Bridget Donovan has her own issues.
It turns out the marriage to Smitty hasnt been all wine and roses.
Four months in, shes already met someone else and is considering ending it.
Theres reason to worry about Smittys safety.
Ray has a plan, though.
Mickey doesnottake it well.
He thinks it should be the other way around.
Mickey has spent most of his adulthood behind bars.
Ray should be begging him for forgiveness.
Thats not going to happen.
When the head surfaces, Ray decides they need to pin it on Mick.
After all, hes already behind bars.
An explosion fills the sky.
Anger management could have just gotten a lot harder to maintain.
Deleted Scenes
Its probably in Pooch Halls contract that he needs one scene per episode, right?
You have to love Foreplay/Long Time playing over the final scenes.
I wonder if Voight really got a clover tattoo.
I wouldnt put it past him.
He will surely come back this season, and hopefully have a rich part.
Joshua Marston directed this episode, so allow me this chance to recommend his Oscar-nominatedMaria Full of Grace.
Good to see him here for a string of directorial duties this season.
