One Of These Days Helmeppo Is Definitely Going To Ask Coby To Teach Him How To Tie A Knot.

One of these days Helmeppo is definitely going to ask Coby to teach him how to tie a knot.

Which will definitely lead to them tying the knot.

Jeez, in terms of symbolism they really nailed it when they gave the woman that killed her husband a weapon's name for a diminutive 👀

"Not in that way" by Sam Smith is so topez coded it's heartbreaking, really

If you're into kenommy, you've probably watched those videos on youtube explaining why Tommy never called Ken back, right?

I mean I did😅 And when I checked out the comms, it was a total bummer!

There are so many people out there truly believing that Tommy just ditched Ken for being a liability. Yeaah, okay, Rosenberg could really fck up Tommy's deals and stuff, given in the end he was high more often than not.

But! What gets me is -

Some people are convinced that Ken has ~always~ been a liability for Tommy! And that got me so worked up I ended up writing this!

(a lot of 'ifs' below)

Alright so, only Tommy and Ken made it out alive at the beginning of Vice City part.

But what if it was just Tommy?

Just think about it! The guy's been away for 15 years. Sonny's his only contact and he's unlikely to stumble on any old ones, if there were any at all, to begin with.

So how's Tommy gonna find the trace of those fckers who stole the money? A rhetrorical question, really. Ken provided invaluable contacts Tommy simply could not do without.

Besides, even if Tommy somehow found a way to a party similar to the one he visited thanks to Rosenberg, he would simply make a fool out of himself! I mean if it wasn't for Rosie, it would have never occurred to him to dress up for a good first impression. The high and mighty would just take him for, well, a yokel and therefore wouldn't take him seriously. Hence, no deals, no contacts.

And last but not least - who did money laundering? Ken!

Ken has been nothing but loyal. If not for him, the legendary Tommy Vercetty wouldn't exist!

This mutual slapping looks like the opposite of tomgreg, right?

Oh, but it actually, really, honestly, so doesn't!

I love this scene so much for in fact it's a whole new tomgreg step to the healthy relationship.

Like, by slapping back Greg communicates loud and clear that he is not ready to put up with any more humiliation. He wants equals. Or as much of equals as a boss and an employee can be.

And I believe Tom gets it. He steps back first. And that whole fantastic 'I got you' scene happens. Tom is so fed up with all the humiliation Shiv put him through that he's gonna do his best to clean up his act.
