Lucia’s mother says she is not in charge after her father’s death not because she is a woman, but because Lucia’s father felt her ambition would damage the family.Īnd he was right. She has no one on her side now that her father is dead. In the finale, Gustavo plots with Lucia against her family. He went from poor wrestler to the right-hand man of the boss. His storyline and character development progressed the quickest throughout the season. Gustavo is the other character who rises from the ashes. For once, he acts like a true boss, but at the same time, I’m not sure how I feel about seeing Franklin become a hardened murderer. This is the type of scene I have been waiting for to show that Franklin isn’t a doe-eyed boy, but someone who understands the underbelly of the cocaine industry. He now has the power to have others kill people when they cross him and his friends. But now, Franklin is in control of the situation.

Ray Ray and Lenny early on easily beat him up. While Ray Ray does actually kill Lenny, the scene shows Franklin’s power over people. This was probably one of the hardest scenes to watch as Franklin held a gun to Ray Ray’s head, prompting him to slash his friend’s throat. When Ray Ray hands Lenny off to him, Franklin throws a wad of cash and a blade telling him he has to finish the job. Jerome goes with Franklin to meet Ray Ray who has Lenny tied in the trunk of his car. Franklin strikes a deal with Ray Ray after Lenny shoots Leon in cold blood.
#LENNY SNOWFALL SKIN#
In “The Rubicon,” Franklin finally shows the tough boss-like skin he’s been growing over the season. However, he always seemed to keep his positive outlook even though his “career” was heading him down a dark path. He fell into the cocaine business and throughout the season got jumped, lied to, shot at, and threatened. Teddy was in a similar situation, being an exiled agent, but his rise through the ranks wasn’t as much power, but more about being in control of his operation.įranklin started as a recent graduate just wanting to do good for his neighborhood. Both started from the bottom with nothing and slowly moved their way through the ranks to come out on top.

Even though it seems like Franklin, Teddy, and Gustavo’s journeys moved slowly throughout the season, by the finale scenes, the parallel to the premiere make it clear how far they have actually come.įranklin and Gustavo are the two who grew the most over the course of ten episodes. In the first season finale of Snowfall, the main players in the game are finally put to the test.
