Richard Returns To Jimmy's

Richard returns to Jimmy's after a day in the woods

[@MrCastiel28]

you just gotta love Richard. In spite of all the heinous things he's done and the ruthlessness he's capable of, he in not inherently an evil person. He just wants to feel like he belongs somewhere; matters to someone. That kind of desperation for closeness is just heartbreaking, especially because out of all the characters on this show, he is the closest thing to noble that any among this bunch will get. He's like a broken angel within a world of scoundrels.

[@kevinwilliams7252]

Well said bro.👍 #THETRUTH

[@nathansugden9332]

Yes Sir,spot on. I like Richard.

[@brianfarris5676]

@George Washington well george...you must be knew here. No one said Richard or any other vet that has had struggles were bad people? You say I'm the kid, but maybe I'm the one that needs glasses old man?

[@TheSoonToBePurgedJackMeHoff55]

Its better to belong in hell than to be an outcast in heaven? Maybe. I don't know. From Richard's perspective that may sound like a decent proposal.

[@uppercutgrandma4425]

He's a sociopath

[@shytguy]

I love how Richard’s arc went from having no one, to having jimmy and Angela, then having that family taken away from him. Then he spends the next two seasons honoring jimmys friendship and legacy by looking after his son Tommy. His story was an ode to the only family he ever had. “Would you fight for me”? Little did he know that Richard would go above and beyond fighting to keep jimmys memory alive through Tommy Darmody.

[@luvmenow33]

Sadly he was right when he said No matter what you do nothing changes. He did all that fighting to give Tommy a good life and just look where he ended up.

[@flightofthebumblebee9529]

The last thing he says to Tommy was when he hugs him and says "I love you" and then kisses his wife goodbye. Richard came SO very close to a happy ending.

[@yoursafeplace8476]

and then the show fucked it all up by not only having harrow make a 'mistake' which he would've never made, they kill him off, and somehow Tommy winds up growing up to be just like his father which deafeated the whole entire point of Tommy being left with Richards love (i forget her name) and her father who Richard turned back into an honorable man. I don't understand how Tommy wound up turning bad like his dad when he was set up to not become his dad. The end of the show should've been Harrow and his family together raising Tommy with a son or daughter of their own.

[@torontoBluejays87]

In a show of backstabbing, undermining and manipulating characters, these two were probably the only ones with a genuine and honest relationship. I was so sad for Richard when Jimmy and Angela died.

[@scottiepalm8911]

me too but i thought it was amazing how he went to war to protect young tommy and then got revenge for angela

[@TheSeanoops]

Not so, Richard found love with Julia.

[@jaytotheell]

that was a brutal scene when she was cold bloodedly killed.

[@BigHorseFilm]

It was bad. & I find it hard to believe the character of Richard wouldn't have gone after Nucky for Jimmy's death. However my understanding is Michael Pitt was so insufferable on set that the producers / writers had to get rid of him despite the character being entertaining and his portrayal very good. The scene where Jimmy dies kinda reminds me of Friends, when Joey's character is killed off in 'Day of our Lifes". His performance was so flat and unconvincing. It was like he had given up and was just trying to get it over with.

It was this moment Richard saw that Jimmy truly loved and valued him as a person and as a friend.

[@ehold6877]

What I absolutely love about Richard is his humbleness. He's not cocky or arrogant or bitter, just a simple man who has loyalty.

[@opaljk4835]

Totally. And while those attributes probably apply to other characters in other shows , Richard is just so unique. Love him

[@flightofthebumblebee9529]

He's loyal but not a "yes man" at all. He worked under Jimmy but Jimmy never ONCE flaunts his authority over Richard. There's even a scene later when Jimmy has a celebration party and looks around the room at all these scumbags then sees Richard, his true friend, and goes over to talk to him.

No, prior to this Richard went into woods to kill himself. He had the shotgun to his chin and right as he was aboit to pull the trigger a dog came and stole his mask, which left teeth marks on it. The dog's owner talked him out of it and Jimmy noticed the damage to his mask. Later on Jimmy offers to get him a new one but Richard declines.

@cbarrett34 I agree. I dont think Jimmy was trying to make fun of Richard that episode that Richard thought he was. Jimmy saw him sitting alone, and went to him, and tried to tell him that Atlantic City was Richard's as much as it was his. I think Jimmy loved Richard too. They both saw in each other the only person who could understand them. Richard scars were just as visible on the inside and outside, but Jimmy was equally broken on the inside. He was most honest with Richard.

I never understood why Jimmy tells Ang there’s no reason to not answer the door but then goes and grabs his gun?

[@NerolNiethsreg]

Because Jimmy is living under a ruse, more or less, in relation to Angela by reassuring her that he doesn't live the kind of life where she needs to fear anything or anyone- i.e. the life of a gangster. So he tells her it's ok to open the door late at night but Jimmy knows it could be anything out there so he's prepared in the event it's necessary.

Glad to see Richard in the previews for Season 3. I think he will stick around for a while. Hopefully, they understand he is a fan favorite. In the latest preview, him and Nucky were talking to eachother, which is strange. So maybe, he isn't about revenge. I think he is going to stick around and take care of Jimmy's son. I'm sure he'll fuck some shit up as well. I hope he does, at least. Loved when he made Owen piss his pants. "why'd you not shoot me?" - "I may yet" AWESOME!

[@hdembski]

@invisiblechild11 perhaps, in the end it's a semi historical show and Jimmy was not a historical person. In season 1 episodes 2 & 7 there is serious foreshadowing teliing you he'd die. esp. 1-7 "home" Jimmy was that guy in the barbed wire, knew no matter what he did he'd never escape his demons. He determined he would not be that guy clinging on to a unwinable situation

[@83BBryan]

It was actually heroin, that he got from Meyer and Lucky not cocaine. That scene makes it even more intense, knowing he's culminating into his own demise.

@anthonycotillo wasn't a matter of "smart" Jimmy admitted he was nuts, it's why he avoided taking that exam when he met richard.

[@TheFiresloth]

It's from the first season, because Jimmy offered a girl to Richard.

[@propheci]

@cbarrett34 He wasn't the main lead, who's Nucky. The #2, right hand man usually is the one to get killed anyway. The new guy, Owen Slater is filling his role; he pretty much said so in ep12. Jimmy was a main supporting character, not the series focus. Thus, he got drilled twice in the head for being the series #2 lead. Which was my point.

[@JRoN1Mo]

[@kendrat199]

Actually,I think these two (his heroin-fueled depression and his flashback to his mother) are not entirely connected. I think he feels guilt for what happened to his estranged wife. think he sees her as an innocent person-despite her affairs-and didn't want Tommy to go through life without an actual mother.His flashback to his mother was the catalyst to show why he 'dropped out' (read as expelled) of Princeton and enlisted in the army,where he wanted to die and didn't expect to survive the war.

It's really hard to root for anyone here since they're all up to some relatively shady shit. One of the main reasons I liked it.

Why was he still holding the gun when he saw it was Richard. I always felt that Jimmy was sort of afraid of Richard because he never knew what he was really thinking and feeling.

[@Bamont]

I refer people to this scene when I talk about how uncaring Jimmy was about his family. He didn't know if there was a threat or not at the door, and he prepared himself for it - while letting his unarmed, innocent, wife answer. If anything, this completely judges his character as a person. I can't imagine a man allowing his defenseless wife to answer the door while he hides in a corner with a gun. Love Jimmy all you want - but he showed his true colors here.
