Hmm... not so much. I've been enjoying this season immensely thus far, but something about this episode just didn't work for me. It's not that it was bad, but it just didn't feel right. There was so much going on and none of it really tied together. All the good episodes of Entourage have A and B plots that usually collide at the end. None of that here. What did I like? More Lloyd. What didn't I like? Everything else.
After that stuff, it went downhill for me. That sub-plot with Turtle and Drama was one of the worst ones yet. While it was nice to see Louis Lombardi back on-screen following his untimely death as Edgar Stiles on 24, he was just another wasted talent here. Playing Cousin Ronnie, the guy is essentially a scam artist and Turtle and Drama played into it. Something about a Sandy Koufax jersey that was auctioned off and it ended up not being worth what Ronnie said because Sandy wasn't dying... his dog was. Even typing that out makes the whole plot sound ridiculous.
What we need is more Drama and Turtle separation. More of Johnny on the Five Towns set or even hanging around with Eric. Switching up the pairings of our four main characters would be great for a change. As far as Turtle goes, he needs more stuff on his own too. More stories like Saigon or that girl he was chasing last season. What happened to her?
Finally, there's Walsh. Up until now I've loved him, but his character pulled a major 180° in this episode. First he took a meeting with Ari (what?!?) and he's actually willing to do the next major studio picture (Lost in the Clouds) with Vince. What happened to Billy's mantra of "f*ck commerce?" It's like his character is being altered to cater to the season's story arc and I don't like that. I'm glad it's created more conflict between Vince and Eric (he won't produce), but it still felt like a step in the wrong direction. Something tells me it's going to take the rest of the season to figure out who's side I'm on.
