'The Deuce' season 2 episode 8: Frankie brings the hammer down on C.C while freeing Lori from him

However, after this episode, there are a lot of things to set straight before the finale and especially when they have planned a time jump for the final season, season three.

'The Deuce' episode titled 'Nobody Has to Get hurt' released on October 28 and it ended with the Martino brothers, Vincent Martino aka Vinnie, and Frankie Martino aka Frankie (James Franco) taking up arms against their enemies. Vinnie comes on Rudy (Michael Rispoli) and Tommy's (Daniel Sauli) orders, who seek revenge for the attempt on their lives. Vinnie was in the middle of capping a man who possibly was connected with the shooting in the drive-by, which somehow left everyone unharmed. Vinnie couldn't bring himself to do it and at the end of the episode we see, Frankie taking the hammer back to C.C.'s (Gary Carr) head and finishing the job that Bobby (Chris Bauer) started while C.C. tries to take money "in perpetuity" for Lori's (Emily Meade) work.
