* The Summerhouse residents continue to not take being rehoused lightly, with even Dushane’s mum being willing to use her savings to get lawyers involved.
* Sully and Dushane finally come to blows after multiple seasons of tension and how badly their relationship was left in the season prior. With Sully rightfully calling Dushane out on how he’s driven by money and not allowing Dushane to boss him around even reminding him that all the power he now has is because of the money Sully gave him. It’s especially cathartic to see that even though Dushane may have more street power, Sully’s the more physically powerful.
* Sully’s CharacterDevelopment hasn’t made him any less badass, and even despite his PTSD and reclusive behaviour is still an ExperiencedProtagonist who handles Pebbles situation quite practically and simply.

* Both Dushane and Sully have [[TookALevelInBadass taken a level in badass]].
** Dushane [[RankUp is now fully running]] Summerhouse and if there was any question of who the titular "[[TheAce top boy]]" was it's officially answered. The supplier Joe is a lot more affable with him than his predecessor Raikes and they're both about to embark on the largest payday of both their criminal careers. Especially notable is that the [[TheRival London Fields]] come to ask him for a supply of drugs and not only is Dushane chill when conducting business with them despite their animosity in the previous season, but he and Dris are also not fussed with the idea of warring with them, which was definitely something he wasfar more cautious about in the previous season.
** Sully seems to be managing himself quite well despite no longer having Dushane as his partner, and seems to be less reckless. Established quite early on, as during his first scene, he manages to suss that the man he's robbing with his partner Mike has more money than what they've initially robbed, due to it being "too easy".



* The way Jamie takes out the Turks near the end of the episode is both cunning and brutal: first he locates their base of operations and proceeds to burn their drugs and also traps them inside to be burnt alive. When one manages to escape he proceeds to [[BoomHeadshot off him]] all whilst covered in biking gear to keep anonymous and preventing the Turks from being knowing who to retaliate. The audience doesn't realise who it is underneath the motorcycle gear until after the deed is done and Jamie and Kit are burning the only physical evidence left to tie them to the scene.

* The sitdown between Dushane and Jamie, perfectly symbolising symbolises the challenge of the old [[OlderAndWiser old]] respected gangster vs the new [[YoungGun new]] upstart don, don. Their back and forth capitalises on the build-up to the two of them finally meeting, with Dushane having finally gotten back on his feet and Jamie having risen to be a competent gangster. The ArchEnemy dynamic is especially well played: both sides have some level of respect towards each other with Dushane [[TakeAThirdOption offering to stay out of Jamie's way if he stays out of his]] and Jamie remarking that he used to view Dushane as a [[VillainRespect legend]]. Despite Dushane having the upper hand due to Dris kidnapping Lizzie, Jamie clearly is more powerful at this point in time, due to having the A-Roadz and several other gangs reformed as his [=ZTs=] and just to hammer the point home to Dushane when he tries to threaten him, [[DroppingTheBombshell he reveals he's the one that ended the Turks]], which is enough to convince Dushane that he won't be able to strongarm Jamie.


Added DiffLines:

* Dushane's unquestionably attained the highest amount of power and success he's ever possessed: he's "top boy" once again, [[TheDon is now running both Summerhouse and the Fields as well as the East London gangs that were under the ZTs]], being the dominant partner in his business with Lizzie and Jeffery, about to gain the largest shipment of drugs that Summerhouse has ever obtained which is worth millions and is even seriously considering retiring from running the road and going legit, which was his original plan all the way back in series 1. He's also looking far fitter and happier than in the previous season, even asking Shelley to move in with him to his new lavish flat.

* Doubling with NightmareFuel: the episode opens with Sully (on his own!) treating the gunshot wound in his arm after being shot last episode. MadeOfIron indeed.
* Minor one for Taylor being willing to host Sully, Jaq and Dushane at her house after the attack, knowing fully well who’s after them but also firmly reasserting that she isn’t gonna be involved in their gangshit. And whilst it’s harsh, her telling Sully that he’s never to come near her or her family again, should also count. Despite still caring for Sully [[MamaBear she isn’t willing to jeopardise her daughter by letting him and his lifestyle endanger them.]]
* Despite being at Modie's mercy for the past couple of episodes Jamie reasserts his dominance this episode and regains leadership of the Mandem. Especially significant is that literal minutes after doing so, every other active Field's member acts as if he’s never left and proceed to go on the hunt for Dushane and Sully.
* Dushane and Sully truly outmaneuver Jamie in this finale and reassert themselves as the Top Boys once again. Despite all the setbacks, losses and hits Summerhouse has taken and the episode opening with the two at the lowest they’ve been since the season started they still manage to beat there opposition and take back control.
** Dushane after realising how much he underestimated Jamie and a much needed pep talk from [[TheConsigliere Sully]] sets out to undo his mistakes and sort all his issues all at once. In what is truly the greatest display of [[TheChessmaster chess-mastery]] he’s shown in the series so far, he sets a trap for both TheMole in the crew and Jamie by feeding false information to the one person that could possibly have sold them out... [[NumberTwo Dris.]] After Jamie plays his hand and comes in full force of arms, Dushane not only confirms his and Sully’s suspicions but also leaves Jamie wide open and unaware that Dushane arranged his own attack right in Jamie’s weakspot... his family. Made even more awesome by the fact Dushane doesn’t win by murdering more men or gaining more arms like he originally thought he would have to, but by playing on the nature of their environment and tipping off the police to a gun he had planted in Jamie’s flat through someone Jamie wouldn’t ever expect to have betrayed him: Ats. Dushane flushed out the mole in his crew whilst carefully planting one where Jamie would least expect to find one; close to home.
** Marking much more [[CharacterDevelopment growth]] since his paranoia in the first season over whether [[TagalongKid Gem]] of all people, was a rat. Sully is careful and calculative in how to draw TheMole out. After quickly realising that the attack on him and Dushane last night wasn’t coincidence along with Dushane he manages to quickly ascertain by a simple process of elimination that it has to be Dris. Then he makes sure to subtly apply pressure on Dris by surprising him at his daughter’s school (which he likely knows will make [[PapaWolf Dris more jumpy as he is a father himself]]) and spoon feeds him information to sell to Jamie, which will determine he is the leak.

** Marking much more [[CharacterDevelopment growth]] since his paranoia in the first season over whether [[TagalongKid Gem]] of all people, was a rat. Sully is careful and calculative in how to draw TheMole out. After quickly realising that the attack on him and Dushane last night wasn’t coincidence along with Dushane he manages to quickly ascertain by a simple process of elimination that it has to be Dris. Then he makes sure to subtly apply pressure on Dris by surprising him at his daughter’s school (which he likely knows will make [[PapaWolf Dris more jumpy as he is a father himself]]) and spoon feeds him information to sell to Jamie, which will determine he is the leak. Then after it’s confirmed that Dris tipped Jamie off, [[TraitorShot he reacts accordingly]].

* The way Jamie takes out the Turks near shootout at the end of the episode is both cunning between Dushane and brutal: first he locates Sully against Jamie, Jermaine and Modie.

** Dushane after realising how much he underestimated Jamie and a much needed pep talk from [[TheConsigliere Sully]] sets out to undo his mistakes and sort all his issues all at once. In what is truly the greatest display of [[TheChessmaster chess-mastery]] he’s shown in the series so far, he sets a trap for both TheMole in the crew and Jamie by feeding false information to the one person that could possibly have sold them out... [[NumberTwo Dris.]] After Jamie plays his hand and comes in full force of arms, Dushane not only confirms his and Sully’s suspicions but also leaves Jamie wide open and unaware that Dushane arranged his own attack right in Jamie’s weakspot... his family. Made even more awesome by the fact Dushane doesn’t win by murdering more men or gaining more arms like he originally thought he would have to, but by playing on the nature of their environment and tipping off the police to a gun he had planted in Jamie’s flat through someone Jamie couldn’t expect to have betrayed him: Stefan. Dushane flushed out the mole in his crew whilst carefully planting one where Jamie would least expect to find one; close to home.
