did anyone catch where the car shop guy said to store money short term ? He said he would put it _______ but normal people would just rent storage units.

but wouldn't that be laundering ?

I thought they were talking about where to store the money until they could safely launder it.

Maybe I'm wrong.

warehouses were also mentioned, but they might have been lumped in with storage units

Shouldn't Mara be showing by now? It seems like time is passing elsewhere on the show, except with her "pregnancy".

She isn't pregnant, just a manipulator.

Has that been made clear? That's what I was speculating, but I didn't know if that's really how it was happening.

Please, post that again. Your point hasn't been made yet.

Any way, I'm pretty sure she is pregnant, since Shane has mentioned going to the doctor with her on more than one occasion. And since this is (presumably) her first kid, and it's only been a few weeks, I'm not surprised that she's not showing more.

Not to be a dead horse either, but just because he's been to the doctor with her doesn't mean he was in the exam room with her.

I am in the camp that she is faking, and until that kid comes out I will be.

This post is nothing more than the statement "Mara is not faking the pregnancy" to be used as a "I told you so" sometime in the future.

I did not think she was necessarily faking either, but it just seems odd that elsewhere on the show they have mentioned time passing, but yet she doesn't even seem to be showing yet. Maybe she found out she was pregnant really early, and she is still in her first trimester.

She was pregnant when she hit Tavon and he is now awake in the hospital after being messed up so badly. I also seem to remember somewhere a character mentioning something happening earlier in the season and mentioned "6 weeks ago" but I'm blanking right now. I know they just mentioned that the money train hit was 6 months ago, but I can't recall how much time had passed between the two seasons.

Ditto that, I find it highly suspicious that so much time (seems) to have gone by in the show and she is still not showing any visible signs of being pregnant. Do you think they will ever touch on this either in the finale or next season?


Season Finale tomorrow night!

Yeah - she's faking it, Because Cleetus Van Damme is such a prize with his beautifully furnished apartment, dream job, and perfect teeth.

I'm also confused by the timeline. I thought about three months have passed since the money train hit.

I vaguely remember at the time of the robbery, Acevada was elected to city council. At time time, Vic said, "Six months from now, Acevada's going to be our boss' boss!" Claudette was also told she would get the precinct, but only after Acevada had finished cleaning up the department during his remaining tenure of six months.

The first few episodes took place in a very short period of time (2 or 3 days) after the robbery, but then there was a major time-skip where the ypick it up after Acevada spent six (?) weeks tracking his rapist.

Also, Dutch made a comment in this episode how Vic is able to turn the entire neighborhood upside-down to find the Armeniam mobsters such a short time, but hasn't been able to track down the money train for "X" period of time. I can't remember if he said months or weeks.

If anyone can provide some insight as to the timeline and Mara's pregnancy, I would appreciate it.
