Weeds brought some of the funny back in last week's episode, as Nancy could only play Esteban's dutiful slave for so long and had her fun when the hard-nosed Cesar gives up on babysitting and lets the more easily swayed (and less English-speaking) Sucio deal with Nancy's daily grind. Nancy eventually realizes that she can twist Sucio into making her life a little easier, although he does have a nasty habit of pulling a gun on each of her family members as they return home from various places, back to Nancy's flock. But by the end, Nancy has Sucio so under her thumb (as she eventually does with all men) that she convinces him to shower -- finally -- which does not end well for Sucio.
Jennifer Jason Leigh is back this week as Nancy's estranged sister Jill and in between her renewal of sack time with brother-in-law Andy, we get some interesting insight into the man-controlling ways of Nancy, which began at least way back in her youth, when she used a teacher's crush to get good grades before the lovelorn professor got shipped off for lusting over a 14-year-old student. We also learn that Nancy was always criminally self-centered and selfish, as she fled town in the midst of their parents' divorce and left Jill to deal with not one, but two lengthy death watches for their mother and father. Jill was the responsible sister who handled all the funeral arrangements, while Nancy was out being Nancy, or at least a younger, less drug dealery, version. But Nancy has no time for Jill's pity party (or for her relationship with Andy), especially after Sucio's mid-shower mishap left blood on the patio and a Mexican henchman missing and Nancy, Andy, Shane, and Jill on the run -- again -- from whoever wanted her (or at least Sucio) dead.
