The Morning After "Weeds"

"Till We Meet Again"
Episode 12

A fed up Nancy squeals to the DEA to bust the tunnel while she plays it cool with Esteban. You would think Nancy would learn you can't trust anyone in her line of work. The raid on the maternity shop and the subsequent arrest of Guillermo was shocking, mainly because the action was done in slow motion. Nancy should have anticipated that Esteban's men would get to someone in the DEA's office. The torture of Roy Till's partner was the most horrific thing I've ever seen on this show and was totally unexpected on my part.

Embracing rehab, Celia sets out to make amends with her family. First she makes a complete fool of herself by mucking up her apology to Isabelle, then Dean won't even let her get started on him. Dean's suggestion is for Celia to apologize to Gwen (their oldest daughter who was only in the very first episode of the series).

Andy succumbs to Maria's advances, and later comes clean to Doug. Of course, I knew Doug was being entirely too calm; as soon as Andy and Maria leave the room, Doug calls immigration on Maria.

Shane impresses his girlfriends with his drug scoring abilities. Undeterred by Silas' refusal to sell his little brother pot, Shane waits until Silas turns his back, and then steals a "head cheese sandwich" from the Cheese Shop.

Next week is the season finale and I have no idea how the story will end. Will Esteban turn on Nancy? Will Roy Till turn on Nancy? Will Ceasar torture Nancy? How will Silas celebrate his 18th birthday? Will Shane continue down the wrong path with his two girlfriends? Will Andy keep Maria from being deported? Will Doug ever speak to Andy again? Will Celia survive rehab? Will Isabelle forgive Celia? Too many questions and only 30 minutes to answer them!
