It all started with an introspective Nancy asking, “Do you think I’m a bad person?” after a long day spent … deep breath … evacuating the plants from the Aguatecture-front building to Celia’s illegally occupied Majestic-owned home after word that a spontaneous fire inspection was nearing. Thought soon turned to action: “What about now?” she purred, grabbing him by his conspicuously sweaty T-shirt. As for the afterglow, there’s the rest of the season for that to fade — or, perhaps more likely, explode — though we do hope that the show’s second-best effing character makes a real love connection with the very best effing character. Either way, it was a heartening end to an episode that started with Nancy holding new potential snitch Celia at knifepoint, literally threatening to kill her. The yellow envelope full of cash that Nancy eventually used to buy Celia off, well, that was just classic Weeds. —Emma Pearse
