1. Javier and Letty's Dinner Date

Letty and Javier's dinner was memorable for so many reasons, one of which being the fact that it put the Jetty 'ship on the map. Their chemistry was undeniable as they sat across from one another both lying, but also, ironically, baring their souls in a way that both of them had never done. It was interesting watching as Letty started it off pretending to be a high school teacher working on a book and slowly stripped layers to reveal her real self as the night went on, and the same went for Javier.

2. Javier and Letty's Elevator Hookup

Who can forget that sexy scene in the elevator? The pair gave a show like Grey's Anatomy a run for its money with a smoldering elevator scene that heated up the screen. Letty admitted to Javier that she lied about being a blond by removing her wig, and he admitted that he preferred brunettes, then proceeded to show her just how much.

If their entire dinner date wasn't enough to convince viewers of their insane chemistry, their steamy hookup in an elevator that carried over into a hotel room certainly did the trick. It was hard not to ship them from that point forward.

3. Letty Attempts to Save Javier's Next Hit

Letty often came across as selfish and disastrous. Despite being a grifter, addict, and thief, she had her own moral code that she followed. Murder was not on her list. She went to great lengths in an effort to save a woman whom Javier was hired to kill. It was a bold and incredibly brave moment for Letty, who, for all intents and purposes, was a human disaster.

4. Javier's Special Note

When the truth was out, and Javier realized who and what Letty was, their relationship had a few rocky moments. For starters, he essentially kidnapped her. The lines of decency were blurry when Letty was being held until she paid off her debt, but Javier was genuinely concerned for her well being. The note he left the grifter posing as his wife not only gave us a glimpse of Javier's sense of humor, but also his care and concern for her. He didn't want her using or abusing any substances on his watch but made a two glasses of wine exception.

5. Letty Returns for Javier - The Tesla Episode

OK, so the stand out moment was when Javier, who had been technically holding Letty hostage, had to trust her to leave and return to him after getting help for their car trouble. With a body in the trunk and her knowledge that he was a hitman responsible for said body, the risk was high. Letty could have called the authorities on him and/or abandoned him, but she came back for him. Something shifted in their relationship after that moment. But honestly, the entire episode often referred to as the "Tesla episode", was fantastic and one of the best of the season.

6. Estelle Defends Letty

A significant part of the season was Letty and Estelle mending their relationship. It took a while before they reached that point, but Estelle often proved that when it comes to family, no one messes with hers but her. When Letty's childhood friend berated and insulted her, Estelle wasn't having any of it. It was refreshing to see that despite their differences Estelle is still protective of her daughter. It came as a shock to both the audience and Letty.

7. Letty and Jacob Talks

Letty and Jacob's moments were all fantastic, particularly the one that took place in Jacob's blanket fort. Jacob is such a mature kid that it's often overlooked that he's still a kid. Jacob and Letty have such an interesting mother-son bond because she's frank about her issues being an addict and con artist, and he's honest about things like his racial identity crisis and his frustration with Letty being a screw-up.

8. Letty and Javier Can't Shake Each Other

Unusual though it may be, Letty knew just who to call when she was in a bind and desperately needed out. If it wasn't already clear that the pair were bound to one another, particularly after a road trip to dispose of a body, it was when Javier came back for Letty when she summoned him.

His tenderness was apparent with the care he took towards keeping her sober, and when he gave her his glasses as a keepsake when he was reluctant to part ways with her, but his face lit up when he showed up to whisk her away. "You came, " she noted when he arrived no questions asked. "You called," he responded.

9. Jacob and Javier Bonding

Any moment Jacob and Javier spent together was a fantastic moment. Jacob is a mature kid, wise beyond his years, and Javier noticed that instantly. Javier spoke to Jacob like a peer and the two had honest conversations about life, but mostly, about Letty.

10. Letty Bails Out Estelle

Letty and Estelle had a strained relationship because of Letty's battles with addiction and theft. Estelle never pulled any punches with Letty and made it known that she disapproved of her daughter's life choices. That's why it was such a fun moment when Letty was the one who had to bail her mother out of jail for a change, in her wedding dress at that. Estelle was unfazed by the ordeal and didn't give Letty a chance to gloat too much. Who can forget Estelle's iconic line in reference to her dress? "It still fits bitch."

11. Javier Says Goodbye to His Sister For Good

Javier's father outing Javier to the rest of the family was shocking, and so was him disowning Javier and ordering the rest of the family to do the same. But one of the best and most gutwrenching moments, was when Javier was forced to say goodbye to his sister who had been in his corner for years. The fact that her baby brother was a killer was just too much even for her. Their last words were intense, and their emotion was raw. It was all the more visceral knowing that Juan Diego Botto's real sister played his sister on the show.

12. Letty Comforts Javier

Up until the family dinner, Javier always came across as the more stable, supportive person in the relationship. He reined Letty in and kept her clean and on track. But after losing his family all over again, Javier was a shell of a person and more distraught than ever. It was expected that he would want to push the last person in his life away, Letty.

He tried to send her away with their stolen car so she could live her life without him. She agreed to take the car, but she agreed to take something else, too. "And I'll take you." It was another powerful moment that cemented their bond, and one of the moments that emphasized that Letty could be a support to Javier too; their relationship wasn't imbalanced.

13. Javier Meets with Sean

Javier and Sean had quite the altercation when things got heated between them at Estelle's wedding reception. The scene where the two sat opposite of each other at a diner and talked was so much better though. In such a brief scene, the audience was provided with greater insight into both men. It was an excellent moment to highlight the contrast between them, and it brought new meaning to the saying that "A person who is nice to you but rude to the server is not a good person."

14. Letty and Christian Run A Con Together

Letty and Christian had an unusual relationship, considering he was her parole officer turned friend. Their relationship was one of the highlights of the season. So was the scam they ran that led to a nice windfall for the both of them. Freshly fired and out of damns, Letty was able to entice Christian over to the dark side, and it helped him live a little. It was nice watching the pair work together, even if it was illegal.

15. Javier's Confession

Javier was in a funk over his family dinner from hell, but he descended into a particularly dark and vulnerable place while explaining his first kill. Javier went from being a complete mystery to a man with his heart on his sleeve and his feelings exposed. His desperate "I need you" and Letty's reassuring "You got me" hit viewers right in the feels.

16. Motorcycle Ride

The impromptu motorcycle ride was a moment of clarity where Letty and Javier could get away from everything for a few moments and just simply be. It was great to see Letty so carefree and lighthearted for a few moments while Bishop Briggs' Wild Horses played in the background. Javier knew Letty needed to get out of her head for a few moments, and it was such a relaxed moment for a pair constantly plagued by drama.

17. Letty's Desperate Request

Letty begging Javier to kill Sean was a turning point for her character. It not only showed how much she trusted Javier, but it showed how desperate she was to rid him from her and Jacob's lives. Sean represented Letty at her lowest, and she couldn't let her son go to him. It was quite the request from someone who adamantly refused to kill anyone and frowned upon Javier's job. It was also a great moment because Javier didn't want Letty to become a killer even if it was via him, but he swore not to let anyone take Jacob away from them.

18. The Custody Outcome

Letty getting custody of Jacob is something that she had been working towards since the beginning of the season. The process was rewarding when Letty won against Sean. Yet, it was an interesting moment because Letty, arguably, should have never won the case. The deal with the FBI is the only thing that saved her. So, it was a sweet moment, but the moment also set Letty on a path where she would have to actually earn the break she was given.

19. Estelle Gives Jacob to Letty

Estelle often came across as cold, but the soft side of her came out whenever it had anything to do with Jacob. For so long, she took care of her grandson as if he was her very own child. It was so easy to get wrapped up in Letty getting her son back, that sometimes we forgot that Estelle was essentially losing hers. It was both heartbreaking and touching when Estelle bid Letty farewell and imparted upon her all the little tidbits and facts about Jacob. It was evident that Estelle loved Jacob with all of her heart.

20. Christian Finds Happiness with Agent Lashevere

It was an unexpected moment when it was revealed that Christian may have found genuine happiness with Agent Lashever. It was also one of the best moments. If anyone deserved to find their own happiness, it was Christian. Here's to hoping the couple is still watching Judge Judy together in season 2.

21. Saving Javier

Letty may have been the reason why Javier needed saving because she turned him in in exchange for her son, but it was a full circle moment. Javier begins the series saving Letty from herself. Letty got to return the favor. It led to a raunchy bordering on violent hookup, but in the end, it showed that the screwed up pair somehow balance each other out.

22. Javier, Letty, and Jacob On the Run

Letty, Jacob, and Javier forming their own family is the best aspect of the series. It was most rewarding that the three of them set off on a path towards a fresh start with one another. All of them finally getting the opportunity to be happy. Taking off down the highway with the law in pursuit couldn't have been a more fitting moment to end the season.
