That's one of my favorite scenes. He's scrubbing away at the blood stain discussing Trixie and the snatch grab with the gimp maid.

Another good scene is Swearengen looking to replace one of his cronies. The guy offers to get some canned peaches and pears for the meeting.

Good opening episode. A little lost - was talking when Bullock and Al started beating the hell out of each other - but overall, impressed.

Other thoughts?

Good start to the season.

It's hard to sum up season one in 3 minutes but they did a decent job before Season 2 started up.

Al's face was pretty messed up!

Initially, the set seemed a little too clean to me. It may be that time has passed and the town has cleaned itself up a bit but the inside of buildings seemed a lot more finished than in season one.

I wonder if this season Al starts to lose his mind or something. I wouldn't take him for the person to get into a fist fight. He's a tough guy but for someone like Bullock who he knows doesn't put up with shit, I'd think he'd have one of his cronies try to take him out.

Good so far!

PS, I like realism but the hairy pits on Alma Garrett I could have done without!

Deadwood's still the best show on TV.

Nice to see Al getting healthy. The camp needs a few ass kickings.
