4x04 Mojo Rising | Glance

Ray cannot stop STARING this entire episode. He loves how much Fraser knows what he’s doing here. TRANSFIXED.

4x04 Mojo Rising | Hypnotized

When you pull the music out of this scene, you can really hear all the fun vocal effects they put on Fraser’s voice here as we shift into Ray POV for a second. He’s so hypnotic!

I love that canonically this scene tells us Ray Kowalski is so entranced by Fraser’s face and voice when monologuing that he is completely incapable of paying attention. Too hot, too ADHD.

4x04 Mojo Rising | Tart

A tiny, totally inconsequential, Canadian inside joke and ex-pat grievance lay in the middle of Mojo:

It is very difficult to find lard for baking in America!!!!!!!!!

That is why the lard Dief eats is very specifically in the Consulate kitchen. Can’t get it elsewhere in Chicago.

I know this because I am a baker and I BEMOAN THE HIDEOUS LACK OF LARD HERE CONSTANTLY A LONG-TIME PERSONAL GRIEVANCE LAID BARE ON SCREEN so I ship Tenderflake to myself in the mail, a sad bastardizarion of the way in which god intended me to receive my pure, rendered pig fat

You know what else yall don’t have while I’m at it FROZEN TART SHELLS. I WANT TO BAKE SOME BUTTER TARTS. WHERE ARE YOUR FROZEN TART SHELLS!!!!!!!!! I wouldn’t have to be making my own butter tarts if yall had those either but HERE WE ARE

4x04 Mojo Rising | Feel

Ray’s little face when he sees Frannie making a pass at his boyfriend. He’s obsessed with how much people are obsessed with Fraser (but he’s his).
