It's still wild to me that Ichirou brought Neil to watch him shoot Riko and ask him if he's happy with the result. Like we could unpack so much from this scene.
It is obviously a mirror of when Riko brought Neil and Kevin to watch Neil's father cut up a man in that very same tower.
But why did Ichirou even invite him to see this, its not like when Riko did it as a message of intimidation to Kevin and Neil, Ichirou was aware that Neil would actually enjoy this. Nora confirmed that this is one of Neils happiest moments in the series until this point. Ichirou could have sent someone to let Neil know Riko was dead but he wanted Neil to see. And then to ask him if he's satified
"Ichirou stopped in front of Neil. "You have cost the Ravens their coach and their captain. Are you satisfied?" It made no sense at first, because Tetsuji was still alive. When Neil caught on he stopped breathing. Tetsuji Moriyama was stepping down—not necessarily because Neil had asked for it, but because Ichirou had been here firsthand to see what the Ravens had become under Tetsuji's guidance. Stuart had said Ichirou was cutting his losses. The Ravens' reckless violence and fraying sanity made them a glaring liability. Ichirou wanted nothing to do with Edgar Allan's tarnished reputation. Neil was suddenly wide awake. "Your people are safe, as are mine. Yes, I'm satisfied."
Ichirou's smile was cold and fleeting. "Let them call you by whatever name they like. You will always be a Wesninski at heart."
I love that Neil is such a brat that he was like : but Tetsuji is still alive 😟 oh wait he's ruined forever? OK then this is the best day ever 😊 yay ❤️
Like this whole thing man. Mafia kids are on their own level when it comes to making friends I guess.
Ichirou to Neil being all : wanna be friends? I'll kill this guy that's been bothering you
Neil to Jean being all: wanna be friends? I'll kill this guy that's been bothering you
Seriously they are like cats
moonjo & yeongsam
(not a dog person so I am going purely by looks/vibes)
Labradoodle (or any poodle mix, really, but size mini or standard, with short hair of course + poodles can be very energetic)
Cocker Spaniel (a gun dog; intelligent and alert, traditionally a working dog that was used during hunting)
Dobermann (shiny and well-groomed, with cropped ears and docked tail, because that's exactly what his father would do)
Shiba Inu (self-explanatory, they just look funny and derpy)
Rottweiler (because they only look intimidating but are generally chill and cuddly, and very loyal)
Miniature Pinscher (with natural ears and tail, because favouritism from dad + it's just a mini and less serious dobermann)
French Bulldog (idk why, it might just be the vibes I'm getting)
Long-Haired Collie (it's just so pretty, and it kind of looks like it would be perfect for the role of secretary/assistant/manager in dog movies)
Bullmastiff (you cannot convince me otherwise)
Dalmatian (looks like a rich kid + I can see it having beef with a mini-sized labradoodle and then complaining about it to a dobermann lol)

The whole conversation with Jordan, Andre and Cate in the fith episode is sooo funny.
Andre is basically: ''Be happy! You got a fly girl!''
Jordan, being the voice of reason: ''I am happy, but there's also days that we are missing''.
And Cate is just there, being like: ''Riiight...I blacked out tooo,''

Inwoo: [notices Jongwoo's bracelet]
Inwoo: You two are preposterous.
Moonjo: Usually these words mean nothing, but coming from you is almost laughable.
Inwoo: Shut up. I'm not gonna explain myself again.
Jongwoo: What are you two talking about?
Moonjo: His shameful secret.
Inwoo: It's not-
Moonjo: Inwoo is preparing a gift for someone. Jagi, you remember that writer you met before?
Jongwoo: Who?
Jongwoo: Wait... Yook Dongsik?!
Jongwoo: You kidding? Him? Them? How!?
Inwoo, interrupting them: It's not a gift! Moonjo is stupid and understood it all wrong.
Moonjo: Really? [in his most patronizing tone] Would you mind showing it to us then? So there are no more misunderstandings.
Inwoo: [angrily leads the way to his study]
Inwoo: [pulls a curtain previously covering a wall]
Inwoo: I don't expect you lowlife morons to understand, but this here is my project. A deadly trap, divided in seventy-five stages, each one harder to crack than the one before. It's designed to be torturous. So diabolical that anyone trapped in it would wish me dead and wish to die a thousand times a day.
Inwoo: [shows the wall completely covered from top to bottom with scribbled papers, post-its, images, red strings, textures, drawings, long calculations, mini lists titled "what Dongsik would do here", and more]
Jongwoo: Wow.
Inwoo: Right, it's really impres-
Jongwoo: It's just like the escape rooms Dongsik loves, but in larger scale.
Inwoo: What? No-
Jongwoo: What a nice gift, Inwoo-ssi. I'm sure he's gonna enjoy it.
Inwoo: For the last time, it's NOT a gift. And it's not supposed to be enjoyable. He will hate me even more after this. He may even die before it ends. It's not for his enjoyment, it's for mine!
Moonjo, pointing at something on the wall: Why is there a fire extinguisher in the scenario of stage twenty-eight?
Inwoo: For safety.
Moonjo: Safety?
Inwoo: Yes. And don't look at me like that. It would be stupid to let him die by accident in a fire, with so many more interesting stages after this one.
Jongwoo, squinting his eyes: There is also an antidote available in the poisonous stage...?
Inwoo: In case he chooses wrong and eats the wrong sweet, yes- But there is a charade to get that, it's not for free. What is so difficult to understand here?
Inwoo: [angrily puts curtain back in place]
Inwoo: You two lack VISION. Get out.
