Okay, so here's my thoughts on Penance:
First off, HOE-MG FUCKING GOD! EVERY DAMN TIME!!!! He plays such FANTASTIC characters that would be perfect to come back and they KILL the character off!! WHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHYCOME?!?!?!?!?! I literally YELLED this at the tv...But, like that moment of OMG, it's gonna happen that I had when watching Lesser Evil, I pretty much called it. Still, WHY?!?! Jimmy was an AMAZING character....*BIG HUGE FUCKING SIGH*
Oh, and i about...um....just....died when they were showing that 'projection' of Jimmy. *swoons*
And lastly - When I think it can't be possible to fall more and more in love with Shanks, he comes along and plays a character like this and BAM, even more love.
Great episode, altogether. (And please don't tell me I'm the only one who drew a parallel between Kate and Jimmy and Michael and Victor - PLEASE. Shanks just keeps playing those characters that make the main characters really look deep inside themselves, huh?)
