So far this season ofRay Donovanis dealing with a lot of things popping up from the past.
It hasnt all been interesting, but at least theres some thematic coherence here.
This weeks episode begins not with the past, but with a present moment of intense grief.

Bunchy apologizes, but theres no acceptance here.
Hes going to have to live with what he did and find other ways to atone for it.
With that said, the less we get into the actual use of the word hispes the better.
Now, Mickey wants to start over again.
She refuses and asks Mickey to kindly keep Daryll out of this mess.
She likes him, he kisses her, that kind of thing.
It could, and will, get complicated, and then hopefully this season will really get rolling.
