Various elements of the episode will be discussed in this review, so beware spoilers. And watch the episode bein/with regard to’concerning’regarding e you read on, lest you face the wrath of the almighty. Or Cassidy…###If you were misgiving’fret ing that we were in in/with regard to’concerning’regarding another week of Moping Jesse, wipe that idea from your brain. Here we acquire’obtain’attain’procure’secure Action Jesse with just a side order of Guilty Jesse. Sure, you could probably see the Eugene reveal coming from across those wide open Texas (well, New Mexico) fields, but the way it was used still worked well. It made more sense in/with regard to’concerning’regarding Jesse not to be able to just call the lad out of hell. The gunplay was certainly fun, even if the rules in Annville seem intensely’extremely’extraordinarily’enormously’awfully odd as to what is legal. Small towns possess’own’nurse their own laws, we suppose. And in Preacher's amped up, fantastical landscape, anything is possible, even a preacher defending his church from a pack of marauding meat packers.###The Tulip storyline seemed detoken ed to keep you guessing this week, unless you put two and two toacquire’obtain’attain’procure’secure her and started to wonder whether poor old Brewski was going to come to a wicked’dreadful’undesirable’adverse’vile end. It was an odd subplot to insert into another otherwise active episode, but it worked with that horrific twist at the end. No Cassidy… Well, except in/with regard to’concerning’regarding behind a door. We did miss his witty and charismatic input this week, but fair play to the team in/with regard to’concerning’regarding keeping him off screen in/with regard to’concerning’regarding a week.###Odin was the one who enjoyed the most character development this week – that initial flashback (within a flashback we've already seen: clever!) – brought to light part of what powers this insane lunatic. Family tragedy shocked the faith right out of him and replaced it with and overriding worship of the God Of Meat. Non-existent, perhaps, but no less a propel . The scene of Odin comparing his squashed daughter's intestines with that of a freshly-slaughtered cow had horrific energy, all pushed to the right level by Jackie Earle Haley's manic deli grossly . And then, during the siege of the church, we see what that tragedy truly wrought: the conniving, calculating killer we know and sometimes love. And in related Quincannon drama, poor dumb Donnie eventually’ultimately figured out how to overcome Jesse's power in the worst way. Anyone else wonder briefly if he'd committed suicide?###After a week off (thanks to Jesse ordering them away with Genesis Speak), the boys are back, and this time they actually contrive to acquire’obtain’attain’procure’secure Genesis out of Jesse. For with regards to’concerning’with respect to three minutes, at least. Kudos to the pair in/with regard to’concerning’regarding their joint swearing when their charge returns to its favourite host, and in/with regard to’concerning’regarding the "wicked’dreadful’undesirable’adverse’vile boy" extransform’alter , which was the episode's top chuckle. Given that their main option didn't work (didn't they bring the chainsaw?), you possess’own’nurse to figure that they're going to unleash one of the more notable’renowned’distinguished elements of the comic reserve s, but we'll leave talk of that to if or when it actually happens.###Remember the Alamo! Odin Quincannon certainly does, and it's also where this episode unsurprisingly draws its name. American history buffs might note that El Valero was the mission that became known as the Alamo, site of a prolonged and bloody battle. After a quiet week, it's back to flashes of the crazy world Preacher can deliver and it's rosy’remarkable’fabulous’terrific’preeminent to see the plot eventually’ultimately picking up a little steam. Not that we hated the slow establish , it's just that given the shorter seasons in/with regard to’concerning’regarding reveal’illustrate’demonstrate’indicate’present’display’argue s like this, the accelerator pedal has to be pushed at some point. In Jesse: action man, Dominic Cooper has the chance to bring more of the character's criminal past out, flashes of which we've merely’barely seen sparing bein/with regard to’concerning’regarding e. Here it's more Die Hard in a church, even if Custer can't quite overcome his personal Hans Gruber. Once again poor Lucy Griffiths is left with the scraps, with Emily standing idly by while the Quincannon boys shoot up her beloved church, and Tulip is relegated to a subplot that doesn't seem to be going anywhere until it suddenly and brutally does. Would you really befriend a dog you know you're with regards to’concerning’with respect to to feed to Cassidy? That would seem to be heartbreaking on a level even eintensely’extremely’extraordinarily’enormously’awfullyone's favourite criminal isn't quite ready to deal with. Finally, what the hell is up with that pressure gauge? Talk with regards to’concerning’with respect to a long game…###Highlight: Genesis' return.###Lowlight: Watching Emily and Miles Person stand around in a kitchen while much more interesting things are happening elsewhere.###Kill of the week: RIP Brewski. The televisual embodiment of this sketch.###Quote of the week: "It's a lie, and I'm going to tear it down, peg by peg." – We won't be seeing that Odin Quincannon Tours Historic Churches spin-off series any time soon, then.###MVP: Jesse. Yup, you've earned it this week, buddy.###Random despite’in spite of’albeit t: Custer could be up in/with regard to’concerning’regarding membership in the A-Team given how creative he got with objects in the church. Wonder if he can establish a cabbage gun?###Airing on AMC Sunday nights in the US, Preacher is available weekly on Amazon Prime Mondays in the UK.
