Watch Snowfall season 1, episode 8 online
By Zoe West
Where can you find the eighth episode of Snowfall, titled “Baby Teeth,” online?
In the seventh episode of Snowfall season 1, Franklin, who started dealing cocaine in the premiere, discovered crack. Because he always wants to be a step ahead, he immediately learned how to make it and brought it back into the city with him. Up to this point, Franklin had managed the improbable. He had been a dealer without ever actually doing the drugs himself. That may continue, but it may not. It will be interesting to see if the show explores the real consequences drug use can have personally. We have seen some of the violence, but nearly all the characters on the show have looked like, well, characters on a TV show. Not drug addicts.
Franklin brought the new drug back to the city with him, expanding his business. It was unclear just how or if he is going to keep the man who introduced him to dealing involved. Cutting him out entirely seems dangerous.
Also in episode 7, Teddy may have decided Alejandro is an important enough contact he must be protected at all costs. This may include killing a witness who could turn him in. Alejandro’s information must have proven more valuable than we realize. Teddy didn’t actually kill anyone during the course of the episode, but he didn’t seem totally opposed to it.
The synopsis for “Baby Teeth” reads:
"Franklin’s business ramps up, causing a rift in his inexperienced crew. Teddy pulls out all the stops to protect Alejandro. While visiting her dying father, Lucia has a realization."

The promo for episode 8 seems to emphasize Franklin’s business dealings. Lucia and Teddy only get a moment or two. The kind of exciting thing is that the disparate storylines seem to be converging. They are all dealing with the drugs in (roughly) the same space now. Teddy came back from his sojourn in Central America and Lucia has begun hiding things from her boss (I assume).
With only three episodes left in the first season, Snowfall may want to start giving some of its characters a degree of closure heading into season 2.
