Things Start to Take Shape
10 September 2019
Warning: Spoilers
In "El Padrino" Kiki goes undercover as a day laborer and discovers a giant pot growing operation outside of Guadalajara. Miguel struggles to keep all sides happy in his coalition and seeks the advice of his mentor. Miguel throws a swanky party for the wedding of the man he used to bodyguard and all the crimelords and political bigwigs are there. Knapp and Sears stumble across this and gather photos. The DEA discovers there maybe an organized method behind the stabilization in weed prices and trafficking.

Things are starting to take shape this season. I think the most interesting storyline for me is watching Miguel try to juggle all the different sides to this complex operation. Everyone wants a little piece of the pie and Miguel can't really grasp the power he wants to. There always seems to be someone up the totem pole above him. Rafael seems busy just pining after one particular girl while Miguel deals with the business side of things.
