Fargo: Season 3

3x10 Somebody to Love

Sad to Nikki die. I wanted her to get her revenge. I'm also kinda bummed Emmit died too. Mr. Wrench must of really be fond of Nikki and who wouldn't be. Side note how did Emmit drive away after the shootout with the cop, I thought his car broke down right before that? I kind of like it that they left it on a cliffhanger letting us decide what happens. Do we root for evil, manipulating the truth to get the facts they want and getting away or do we root for the good, the truth is the truth and you can't change that.

I think the theme of the season between good and evil, truth and lies, Gloria and Varga was very interesting. Looking back on the beginning of every episode where its says "This is a true story" and then true goes away and then it is just story really hits on this theme. What is being told is it the truth or is it just a story? I always thought it was just funny they did this like the movie but it has some real meaning this season. Truth vs facts.

I went back and watched the first scene of the first episode and it was very similar to the last scene. A man is accused of killing his girlfriend and he denies it. He's not the same name or age but lives in the same location as the dead girlfriend's boyfriend. The cop doesn't believe his "story" because he has proof of where he lives and they need to pin this on someone. So which is true, the story or the facts? It ends where we don't know who "won" there just like the end of the season.
