Fargo, S1 Ep8

Fargo, S1 Ep8

Hi everybody, Mary here.

So, here is the review for the eigth episode in the first season of Fargo. Without any further ado, let's get started, shall we ?

The Heap

So, here are the three words I've chosen for this episode :

Giving Up : In this episode, it's the conclusion of the investigation started at the beginning of the season. The case is closed and Lester's brother will go to the trial. Now, it's time to move on and have a new life, and start fresh after the incidents that changed everything in everybody's life. Not only people died, but the survivors have to live and learn to keep their lives without them. Maybe something good will happen to them, in the end...

A Dream Life : Now that it's one year later, and everyone is having a dream life. The father is now a mailman, just like he always wanted to be, and he's married to the policewoman. They now live in a house with his daughter and they seem to be very happy. Also, Lester has married this lady called Linda who works with him and won the 'Best Salesman Of The Year' award given by his company and he's also married. They all seem to have a very 'happy' ending, in the end, and Lester has thrown away everything that belonged to his now dead wife, Pearl.

Ghosts : But, in the end, everyone knows that things will never get back to normal. The policewoman hasn't given up yet on the case and keeps calling the FBI, since our serial killer kept committing crimes here and there, to know what's up and if they have new information. Apparently, since the FBI is busy with the Patriot Act, they can't help her and they tell her that they probably won't call back. Also, as Lester's at a party thrown by his company, he sees our serial killer at a table talking with some of his colleagues, and he knows that he'll get in trouble soon...

Overall impression : Another great episode, that shows that even with time passing, things will never be the same as before.

Okay, that's it for today ! I hope that you enjoyed this post and I will see you very soon with another one !

And as usual, our last word : KIDNEYS !
