That may be satisfying.
Or the strongest move might be for Rick just finally walking away from his step-dad forever, and starting a new "family" .
Now that Rick's seen what Pat is made of, and what he can achieve, on a personal level Rick and Pat might finally get his dad's Mustang up and running again, could be the symbolic bond to bring them together.
And yeah although things didn't go their way Hourman had some great scenes this episode.

This episode was shot beautifully. Hugely cinematic.
That fight between Courtney and Shiv was riveting.
Who was the guy with the sword who saved Courtney? The Shining Knight? Shiv is playing the part perfectly. Spoiled little ........
May I also add, I'd like to see the secrecy angle in the family be dealt with quickly. There's nothing creepier than when stepfather and stepdaughter keep secrets from mom.
I mean, I don't think Pat is intentionally ignoring Mike and Rick is honestly in a really bad place emotionally, still.
I don't think it's creepy, but it's definitely a problem and we've seen Pat wants to tell Barbara but Courtney nixed it.
Telling Barbara and Mike would take away half the fun at this point. Mike wouldn't even be able to keep the secret.
double post, please delete.

I thought it was a really good intro to Shining Knight. It could easily have gone wrong, but they did it very well. As for the villains, well, they've always been a highlight of the show, so it's no surprise about how well they did with the character of Shiv.
