    Just to clarify something real quick, Teddy actually hired the accountant guy before Franklin got out of the game. Go check out Season 5 Episode 7. A lot of fans seemed to forgot that conversation that Teddy had with the accountant guy in that particular episode. There were other reasons besides Franklin wanting to leave the game that brought Teddy to that decision btw. A really good analysis video nonetheless. 👍🏾

(Long drawn out story) as far as his other "Business" was concerned & when Kane started attacking Franklin, Teddy, Gustavo, and the rest of Franklin's peoples. It was a total clusterf**k. smh

      but also given how smart he was it didn't make sense he didnt see a lot of stuff coming. He should have planned ahead like he did before. From Peaches to Louie and even Teddy. He was sharp enough to know Teddy was spying on him but not smart enout to move 73million dollars or to not keep his bank info at home in a door or safe a police officer broke into. He could have burred that info overseas and came out better.

    I know Franklin is the guy who brought crack to LA and it was his idea to basically spread it throughout all the major cities. But I still feel bad for the guy. In the beginning he didn't realize what crack would do to the community. He just saw it as an opportunity to make money. By the time he did realize it was already too late. And besides the CIA would've never allowed him to walk away from the game anyway. We saw what happened when he tried to leave and Teddy took 73 million from him. Tragic...

      @barbaraparker7681 6 місяців тому +1

      I was upset with the ending but it was realistic. What hit me as I watched Franklin fall apart was what his mother said to him about being inconsequential. About how Teddy was never worried about her, because in Teddy's mind she didn't matter at all. From the moment Alton disappeared in Cuba, Cissy was always going to kill Teddy. The reason she killed him when she did, was because when she asked Franklin if he was going to let him get away, just take the money and let Teddy walk away, Franklin said, "Yeah, this is how it is. " That broke her. She snapped, and realized Franklin was lost to her. Later, we see Louie hiding out at the horse ranch, while the DEA is still trying to find her, but there's Franklin in plain sight, even living in his old house, and the system, the police don't even care about him. He is inconsequential. He no longer matters to them. For me the scene in Peaches' house really really showed me what a monster Franklin was. When he killed Miguel.
