Part 7/11:

Brett observes that the show offers glimpses of Oz’s softer side, primarily through interactions with his ailing mother. This humanization adds complexity to his character, depicting him as a man torn between his criminal ambitions and familial love. While some viewers might see this as a compelling depth, Brett voices concerns that such moments risk softening a villain’s portrayal, potentially diluting the story’s moral clarity.
