The Shield Episode 12 "Possible Kill Screen"

I found the title of this episode interesting.  It's a line from "King of Kong" the movie about the fellas who try to get the highest score on Donkey Kong.  This episode was a true heartbreaker and sets up what I feel will be a sad series finale.  Shawn Ryan and the writing staff of the Shield are nothing short of brilliant.  The sense of desparation from this week's episode was conveyed out perfectly.   I felt for Shana and Mara as they did what anyone with no hope left at all did.  This writing staff displays hopelessness better than any I've ever seen.  Vic recanted all his sins for an immunity deal and the look on the federal agent's face said it all.  We've seen Vic turn on Terry Crowley, Shane turn on Vic, Lem turn on Vic, and now we've seen Vic turn on Ronnie to save Corrine who wasn't in trouble to begin with.  This was one of the best episodes of the show ever.  The look on Claudette's face when she found out Vic had full immunity was priceless and seeing her turn on Dutch was great drama.  I love this show and I'm sad that next week is the end.  Only 2 more hours of the Shield left.   

Here's my predictions for the finale. 

Shane and Mara both die in a shootout with police or with Vic.  I predict Ronnie will kill himself once he finds out that he now has no way out of the trouble he's in.  Here's my shocker.  I think the serial killer kid kills Dutch.    I think Claudette will die of a heart attack or something similiar.  She's been building to something major health wise for the last few episodes.
