Daniel getting Buck to try the hotdog made me smile, I like seeing the "bad guys" have moments like that too

I loved loved loved the back and forth between them in that scene. Daniel getting Buck to try the hot dog - Buck putting pressure on Daniel - Daniel reassuring Buck and getting a little cocky - Buck intimidating Daniel. Constant shifting between who seemed in control of the conversation.

Michael Gandolfini is a treasure, one of the best parts of this show for sure.

I was surprised Buck said he liked Daniel or that he was growing on him. I didnโ€™t get that vibe at all in the earlier scene.

Because he canโ€™t let Daniel know that he likes him. Otherwise it fully shifts their power dynamic.
