Acey offered Mike his heart’s desire if only he would apologize. Mike turned her down. Now what? And what about Senator Castillo’s threat to “take him out, one way or another?” Find out in Episode 40: Acey’s Reaction.
“…listen to Nancy and ‘just say no.’” Clever reference and characterization, warning against the hallucinating and mind numbing academic and media “drugs” pushed by today’s social justice progressives.
I said "listen to Nancy and just say 'no'" to my kids and got the "Pelosi?" answer back. Made me feel old! But at least it gave me good material for the story.
”The deputy slowly, solemnly, picked up the television remote, as if it were a dangerous weapon he had not realized was loaded.” A mind weapon employed in programing for children and teens daily.
If apologizing, the person left “wouldn’t have been me.” The true goal is for individuals to give up their identity … your self. “Wise of heart” seems to indicate integrity – being true to self?
Admittedly, I picked the name primarily because it was the second half of the proverb from which "inherit the wind" was taken. But it fits nicely, because being "wise of heart" suggests an integration of intellect and emotion, acting with discernment, wisdom, and benevolence.
“I’m sorry I’m only just now realizing that the only way to win is not to play their game.” Essential insight; the game is dishonest; critical for protection and counteroffensive.
This section is chock full of good lines and ideas. It's a rolling climax to transition into the Act 3 dénouement. First, Castillo and Travis had to resolve their open issues. Then Mike had to make his decision whether to take the ticket offered to him, accept the bribe, and apologize. He's declined. Now Acey has to make her decision.
Wow. This is the scene that rocked me. 👏
Not to spoil tomorrow's episode, but "You ain't seen nothing yet!"

It makes me feel old as well

That's one of my favorite lines - the dawning realization that propaganda can be just as deadly as a gun.
Just as Orwell reminded us in1984

And it took me personally far longer to figure that out than it took Mike!
