It was a tiny step up - spoiler alert

from previous episodes, although it was still pretty bad.

The murder mystery was pretty much figured out last week. This week, Ray just had to conveniently remember that the brother looked just like a guy who was working on a movie, then call the union to quickly find his house, where conveniently the sister was shackled and ready to explain it all.

Meanwhile Frank repeats over and over, 2 weeks, but the aware viewer knows that he won't make that meeting in white.

So the alcoholic mayor and the plastic surgery doc are killed off and the hard drive has erased itself, as loose ends tie themselves up.

Frank's little revenge/greed rampage goes great and Osip is quickly dispatched. A nice scene to see at least one scumbag get his comeuppance.

Then the plot goes all to hell again. Ray takes a short detour to see his son, who gives him a bizarre salute of respect. Ray sees a transponder on his car, tries briefly to remove it, then does the exact opposite of what anybody would do. Gets in and drives anyway. Suicidal? Stupid? Anyway, he chose death and got it.

Frank meanwhile is accosted by completely minor characters, gives them a million bucks cash, but then gives up his life over his suit. Was it because there were diamonds in the suit? Or was he also suicidal?

As he dies, he sees some fairly absurd flashbacks, but we have 90 minutes to fill after all.

And most of the bad guys got was they deserved, our flawed main characters got their just desserts for their murderous lives, but some of the bad guys got their political dynasties and train corridor wealth.

So it makes a big point about life or something like that.

But Ray's sperm turns out to be more powerful than he suspected. So in death, he has that.

It's all pretty silly and a fitting end to a series that seemed to just be making it up as it went along the whole way through.

At least the finale did not drag for me, something I have had problems with in earlier episodes.
