Big Love: Uncle Eddie

Uncle Eddie (Brian Kerwin) is a new significant character this season.  He was introduced to us as Lois' brother who has been helping her with the laundromat.  It would be unlikely that he was brought in, with such a significant presence, without figuring heavily in this seasons arc.

In the last episode, while at Weber Gaming, Bill's conversations with Eddie lent me to think that he is being setup as Bill's new partner. Also, Don Embry seems to be gradually loosing faith in Bill's decisions.  I could see a scenario with Don passing on the gaming deal, and Eddie stepping in.
