Wasn't the whole "Malichi" story line just a regurgitation of the Red Pony on a grander scale? Something about how it played out it was obvious that he would never get what he wanted.

Also, how about Malichi using the slowest, most easiest-to-reverse way of killing someone ever? It was laughable. I was waiting for someone to get tied to some train tracks next. lol

Anyway, it was a good ride, but wow was it getting redundant.
