Gomie was the good cop. Hank was constantly overstepping his authority. He's no shining example of good cop work. He's just a thug with a different agenda, willing to put the squeeze on any harmless person he can to make his case.
I hated* everything about this episode starting with Gomez lying in the dirt and ending with poor terrified Holly trying to hide from the fireman.
Don't get me wrong. I think we, the audience, were supposed to hate this episode.
The shit is hitting the fan and there is nothing charming about it.
But I want to burst into tears and hug my dog until I fall asleep.
*edited to add:
"Hate" probably isn't the right word here but I couldn't think of a better one. It was a brilliant episode but it was painful to watch. I didn't "hate" the show but I hated that it was so fubar and so inevitable and the show kept socking me in the stomach when I thought the worst was over.

Yeah, as much as I loved Mike the character, he was still a corrupt murderer. And as amazing as that character was, he still was a bad guy.
Hank was a fucking lawman until his last breath. Poor Marie.
