Fargo (TV series)
- Thread starter T & P
- Start date
I thought that was a great episode. A bit slower and less violent than last weeks but stronger for it. Only thing I didn't get was the end.
Why was it such a big deal for Lester seeing Malvo at the end? I know its obviously a big thing seeing the guy who shot a cop in your house but was that alone worth the dramatic music and Lester's reaction? Malvo would of killed Lester long ago if he had wanted to. What reason, if he needs one, would he have for killing Lester now? Did he know Lester planned to shoot him and fit him up? If so why is Lester alive? Does he somehow know Lester put the hitmen on to him? If so why is Lester alive? Is it just the unpredictable nature of the character? Some parallel to what happened with the deaf hitman?
zoooo
zero tolerance for walkers
I don't know logically why it was so scary and sinister that he was there, but it was.
I was waiting for him to turn around, and if he had I may well have pooed myself.
Possibly something about him knowing the truth about a Lester. A truth he can do little with without implicating himself. Is the stuff with Lester anymore memorable to him than the stuff with the guy pissing in the fuel tank?

Martin Freeman has more range than I gave him credit for. His Doctor Watson, Bilbo Baggins and Arthur Dent (has anyone else ever landed such a trilogy of cult roles? I doubt it) were all basically the same character, but Lester is something entirely different. Native Minnesotans may disagree, but I reckon he's nailed the accent as well.

I loved him as Tim from The Office.
That was a year ago and in De Luth (or whatever the place is called) to boot.
BBT is excellent - I can't think of anyone who could have done a better job of this character.

Duluth.
I'm really enjoying this, but as someone else pointed out, is Lorne Malvo not a bit Anton Chigurh - the killer from No Country for Old Men?

It wasn't a year ago when it happened. And Molly was involved in the case, she shot the hitman in the first place. If he had escaped surely she should have been alerted.
Yes, but much, much better. Funnier, dryer, scarier.
A Magnificent Bastard indeed, to use the trope name. The most magnificent of the Magnificent.
The above is a spoiler for the latest american episode. If you're watching on channel 4 and think it is safe to look you're wrong, dead wrong.Jemma "Aww, that's so sweet! I am gonna stick my whole thumb up your ass later"
Malvo "Aces!"
I died laughing.

theyre making it really easy to dislike lester, was thinking they were going the heisenberg route at first with the new lester but hes completely despicable as you can see at the end of 9
oh and what happened to the supermarket guy? did i miss something or was the raining fish scene the last time he was on screen or mentioned?
the deaf hitman too has vanished, maybe all these people effected by Malvo just arent that important to the main plot but id like to see some of these loose ends tied up next week

I'm impressed with Gilles Peterson. His first acting role and he's so right you can forget it's him

The deaf guy shot at a copper with an assault rifle. I'm guessing he's in prison.

yeah but malvo gave him the key to his handcuffs and killed the guard then said something like, i killed your partner if you got a problem come and find me so im assuming he'll come back in at some point but maybe not
