In Gomorrah, betrayal rarely announces itself. There is no need for a dramatic confession or a villain explaining his intentions. More often, betrayal exists in the uncomfortable space between what a character knows, what he chooses to reveal, and what he stands to gain from another man’s misfortune. Loyalty and treachery are not necessarily opposites. Sometimes they are two aspects of the same calculation. The second episode of Season 2 offers a particularly intriguing example.
