I had to give myself time to watch the episode where Bonnie dies - the opener was so fraught with tension that I couldn't deal. I ended up watching that one and this week's episode as a double feature, and OMG! So amazing. When Stanley held the gun to Goetz's head, my breath caught, and when he pulled the trigger I was shocked but also not - this show will tip over into those horrible moments (where so many others would wuss out), but it did seem organic, just as you mention. It's kind of amazing that they can get me to buy an execution of vengeance, feel a pang for Goetz, want to pet Stanley as he goes to retch from what he did, and still feel a growing dread at the consequences yet to be visited upon the town. Wow.
