⸺ The Penguin 1.04 | "Cent'anni" (2024)

[balls-heheh]

Oh fuck you-

[weak-hero]

there is so much to unpack about dinner scene but it comes down to two people finding themselves in unexpected pseudo-familial dynamic born out of grief and loneliness

sofia asks if she can help in cooking/changes plates and then be still for millisecond, almost bracing herself for harsh reaction because that how it was with carmine. but sal is not like her father. she doesn't have to walk on eggshells in case she makes him upset, she can actually relax a little bit and eat in peace.

and i love all the parallels and anti-parallels between these dinner scenes from 1x04 and 1x06 :

grand room vs kitchen

sal actually cooking the meal vs carmine getting the prepared food

soup (symbol of warmth/intimate dish) vs roasted hunted meat

carmine/sal both pour her wine (as in she's the big girl sitting at adults table)

carmine positioned at the head of the table vs sal choosing to sit next to her

sofia in proper dress/hair done vs nightgown/hair disheveled

all the food x sofia scenes post-arkham were a build up to this scene with sal so audience would see how she's more considerate to him -> actually mindful of his opinion about herself ; cause sofia was eating like time was running out, not caring what people would think about her and here she's makes herself to slow down and actually enjoy the meal like!!!!!!!!!!!!! so much to unpack!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i love when women (sofia falcone) wrong (kill their entire family) because it's oh-so-right (they were abusive pieces of shit)

genuinely felt so bad for Vic because he did trust Oz so much to the point he felt that he was family to him. Oz gave him something that he didn’t have before, and he learnt so much from him despite being a teen who lost his family.

Seeing him struggle and trying to fight back as Oz chokes him to death just made me so sad. Poor kid just wanted to be with his mentor that he felt safe and close around.

Once again, Vic deserves so much better.
