I know Michael Westin is supposed to be a good guy, helping people in need. Still, I got a real kick out of the show he put on trying to make Omar find Rincon for him.
The suit. The low voice with all the vague but dramatic pronouncements. The Eastwood glare. And of course, the bit where he snaps his fingers and explosions follow. It was very over-the-top, but also very entertaining watching Omar and his boys jump.
Gilroy put it best, such panache. Jeffrey Donovan plays a strange man with uncertain motives well. It was sort of villain you might see in a comic, the rising threat in the Gotham underworld.

I think my favorite moment of the episode was the very end though. All through the episode Rincon knows that Michael is using some sort of trick to get the explosion effect. Hell, he even helped plan one of them to a degree.
But when Michael is walking away at the end, Rincon gets a puzzled expression on his face and snaps his fingers, like he's trying to blow something up himself.
Doesn't hurt to try it for yourself. It's probably a trick, but if not, and he can learn to do it himself, well then. . .
He'll likely blow his arm off. But that will be a valuable lesson for him.
