I've got a theory:
remember how old Satin did NOT go to the Black Mass, but sat there at
the table shuffling glasses with a murderous look on his face?
so - maybe he's a good guy.
and plus, he's like the choreographer, who better to work the
mechanics of it all, to help Melanie stage a fake suicide and get away
from V.?
Yup, that's my theory, and I'm stickin' with it.
