I told this to Fargo.
29

He came by the garage
the day it happened.

Lester was involved.

00:12:58,378 --> 00:12:59,914
BILL: Look, Lester,
178
00:12:59,979 --> 00:13:01,981
if this is too
hard for you,
179
00:13:02,081 --> 00:13:03,116
you can just give us
the bare bones...
180
00:13:03,216 --> 00:13:05,253
We got a witness
says that, uh...
181
00:13:05,318 --> 00:13:09,789
she saw you and this other
fella arguing about Sam Hess.
182
00:13:13,726 --> 00:13:14,670
Who?
183
00:13:14,761 --> 00:13:16,297
Sam Hess.
184
00:13:17,130 --> 00:13:20,077
BILL: You remember Sam. He used
to beat you up in high school.
185
00:13:20,133 --> 00:13:21,134
What?
186
00:13:21,234 --> 00:13:24,306
Oh, yeah, Sam had a thing
for ol' Lester here.
187
00:13:24,404 --> 00:13:26,315
Used to chase him
around the schoolyard
188
00:13:26,406 --> 00:13:28,283
till one or the other
ran out of gas.
189
00:13:28,341 --> 00:13:30,480
You remember...
big kid. Uh...
190
00:13:30,576 --> 00:13:33,079
What was that name he called you?
Lester Nig...
191
00:13:33,146 --> 00:13:35,148
Oh, yeah. Yeah, Sam.
(BILL CLEARS THROAT)
192
00:13:35,248 --> 00:13:36,852

That... that was a long time ago.
(CHUCKLING) Oh...
195
00:13:40,453 --> 00:13:42,455
But,
196
00:13:42,522 --> 00:13:44,502
you were talking about him
in the emergency room,
197
00:13:44,590 --> 00:13:45,694
so what's the story there?
198
00:13:52,031 --> 00:13:54,602
Well, I, uh...
199
00:13:57,770 --> 00:14:02,378
Hmm, it's real fuzzy, but
I might have said, uh,
200
00:14:02,542 --> 00:14:04,112
"My face is a mess."
201
00:14:05,144 --> 00:14:07,988
Mess sounds like Hess,
so probably your, uh,
202
00:14:08,047 --> 00:14:09,526
the witness just misheard.
203
00:14:09,615 --> 00:14:11,492
Yeah, that's possible.
204
00:14:12,885 --> 00:14:14,523
Can you describe
the fella?
205
00:14:15,321 --> 00:14:17,699
Height, eye color,
that kind of thing?
206
00:14:17,790 --> 00:14:20,361
You know, the last few
days, they're real fuzzy.
207
00:14:20,460 --> 00:14:24,408
Reason we asks is, we got
an operating theory, okay?

this fella you met at the hospital...
211
00:14:34,340 --> 00:14:36,217
maybe he followed you home...
That's not...
212

share that theory. So...

I tell you.

look up the name of that

what's your name?

Why?
244
00:16:24,584 --> 00:16:26,586
So I can find
the package.

I'm sorry?

The package is
addressed to "Duluth."

Eh, that's a city.
I need your name.
249
00:16:36,362 --> 00:16:38,035
I told you my name.
250
00:16:38,130 --> 00:16:39,871
Your name's Duluth?
251
00:16:42,869 --> 00:16:45,110
Well, I'll need
to see some ID.

No.

Well, I can't give you your
mail if you don't show ID.

Sure you can.
257
00:16:58,351 --> 00:17:00,388
All you gotta do is look through
those packages over there,
258
00:17:00,486 --> 00:17:02,966
find the one addressed to
"Duluth" and then hand it to me.

Look, son,
we're in Duluth,
260

so technically, all the mail
is addressed to "Duluth."

Am I gonna need to come back
there and find it myself?

She's in the basement
dead and, uh...

been a bad boy?

to believe is all, you know?

saying that you were talking
about Sam Hess the day he died

then it turns out
671

Uh, well, it turns out Lester and
Hess went to high school together
690

and Hess used
to beat him up.
691

might consider that a clue.

sense he makes up in self-esteem.
695
00:43:25,636 --> 00:43:26,740
(CHUCKLES) Yeah.
696
00:43:28,573 --> 00:43:30,075
Bill have a theory?
697
00:43:30,141 --> 00:43:33,953
Oh, yeah, he says that it
was a spree, you know?
698
00:43:34,045 --> 00:43:37,549
A drifter or, quote,
gang of drifters.
699
00:43:37,615 --> 00:43:39,219
You know, like it's 1942.
700
00:43:39,283 --> 00:43:42,492
Like, uh, drifters are a
national threat. Hobos.
701
00:43:42,753 --> 00:43:43,891
(SCOFFS)
702
00:43:44,922 --> 00:43:49,393
Well, he's chief now, so he sets
the agenda, same as always.
703
00:43:49,460 --> 00:43:51,269
Yeah, I know. It's just...
(CHUCKLES)
704
00:43:52,263 --> 00:43:54,573
I mean, you know, here
we get this car crash
705
00:43:54,632 --> 00:43:57,511
with this dead man
in frozen panties nearby,
706
00:43:57,602 --> 00:43:58,979
and the driver
has a head injury
707
00:43:59,070 --> 00:44:00,413
and maybe went to
the emergency room
708
00:44:00,471 --> 00:44:02,849
where he talked to Lester
about Sam Hess,
709
00:44:02,940 --> 00:44:05,648
and then within 24 hours,
Hess is dead
710
00:44:05,743 --> 00:44:09,919
and then there's the fracas with,
you know, Lester's wife and Vern.
711
00:44:13,251 --> 00:44:15,697
Not sure
if you remember,
712
00:44:15,786 --> 00:44:16,787
but when you were five,
713
00:44:16,854 --> 00:44:20,529
they had to put you under
anesthesia to fix your teeth.
714
00:44:20,625 --> 00:44:23,765
Gave you that mask and gas that
smelled like tutti-frutti.
715
00:44:23,828 --> 00:44:24,829
Yeah.
716
00:44:25,997 --> 00:44:29,945
My soft, little girl in a hard
world of drills and needles.
717
00:44:30,801 --> 00:44:33,839
I'm 31, Dad.
I carry a gun.
718
00:44:33,938 --> 00:44:35,975
I know,
719
00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:38,213
but it's relative,
you know?
720
00:44:40,978 --> 00:44:44,187
There's the kind of things a
school teacher gets exposed to,
721
00:44:44,282 --> 00:44:46,523
truancy and the like,
722
00:44:46,617 --> 00:44:49,325
and then there's
the stuff a cop sees,
723
00:44:49,387 --> 00:44:52,800
murder and violence,
and general scofflawery,
724
00:44:54,792 --> 00:44:56,965
and then there's the kind of
deal you're looking at now.
725
00:44:58,963 --> 00:45:00,738
Which is?
726
00:45:00,831 --> 00:45:02,037
Which is
727
00:45:02,133 --> 00:45:03,669
if I'm right...
728
00:45:05,136 --> 00:45:08,140
savagery, pure and simple.
729
00:45:08,206 --> 00:45:10,413
Slaughter, hatred,
730
00:45:10,508 --> 00:45:13,148
devils with dead eyes
and shark smiles.
731
00:45:15,713 --> 00:45:19,388
One day, you're gonna get married
and have kids... (SCOFFS)
732
00:45:19,483 --> 00:45:20,894
and when you
look at them,
733
00:45:20,985 --> 00:45:23,591
their faces,
734
00:45:23,688 --> 00:45:26,669
you need to see
what's good in the world.
735
00:45:26,724 --> 00:45:28,499
'Cause if you don't,
736
00:45:28,559 --> 00:45:30,163
how you gonna live?
737
00:45:33,264 --> 00:45:34,743
You talk a lot,
you know that?
738
00:45:36,500 --> 00:45:38,605
It's always been a problem.
(DOOR CLOSES)
739
00:45:44,575 --> 00:45:46,748
Lou.
Chief.
740
00:45:46,844 --> 00:45:48,790
(CLEARS THROAT) Molly,
could I have a word?
741
00:45:48,879 --> 00:45:49,914
Yeah, sure.
742
00:45:50,014 --> 00:45:51,516
Pull up a chair.
You want some coffee or...
743
00:45:51,582 --> 00:45:53,357
Yeah, no, uh...
(SIGHS)
744
00:45:54,085 --> 00:45:57,259
Lester Nygaard called me,
yeah, and he's super upset.
745
00:45:57,355 --> 00:45:59,028
Well, yeah, you know, I
thought he might do that.
746
00:45:59,090 --> 00:46:00,797
Yeah, we talked
about this and all...
747
00:46:00,891 --> 00:46:02,302
and I thought we were...
748
00:46:02,393 --> 00:46:05,772
I thought I was clear that we were
gonna focus on the drifter angle
749
00:46:05,863 --> 00:46:07,604
and not, you know,
harass the victim.
750
00:46:07,698 --> 00:46:10,042
Well, I'm not,
you know...
751
00:46:10,101 --> 00:46:12,103
I didn't harass him. I just...
I got questions, you know.
752
00:46:12,203 --> 00:46:14,774
Yeah, well, I'm the chief
now, and I got to...
753
00:46:14,872 --> 00:46:15,907
(SIGHS)
754
00:46:15,973 --> 00:46:18,749
Everyone's gotta line up behind
me, you know, toe the line.
755
00:46:18,809 --> 00:46:19,981
Sure, yeah,
yeah, I know...
756
00:46:20,077 --> 00:46:23,820
Yeah, we talked about this, and now
I gotta take you off the case.
757
00:46:24,715 --> 00:46:26,092
Well, we all know
how you felt about Vern.
758
00:46:26,150 --> 00:46:27,128
I mean, heck,
who didn't?
759
00:46:27,218 --> 00:46:29,824
But, uh, maybe
it's best if you just...
760
00:46:31,389 --> 00:46:34,336
And this could be good for you,
career-wise, because, uh...
761
00:46:34,425 --> 00:46:35,961
I'm gonna make
you head of inquiry
762
00:46:36,060 --> 00:46:38,438
on that, uh, frozen fella,
the naked one, yeah.
763
00:46:38,496 --> 00:46:39,634
I'll make you
lead on that.
764
00:46:39,730 --> 00:46:40,765
Bill, listen, I...
765
00:46:40,831 --> 00:46:42,902
Yeah, so
that's my decision.
766
00:46:43,734 --> 00:46:45,145
Take care.
What...
767
00:46:48,339 --> 00:46:50,250
(DOOR OPENS)
768

(DOOR CLOSES)
769
00:46:57,114 --> 00:46:58,252
Well, okay, then.
770
00:47:05,289 --> 00:47:06,791
See you for dinner.
Yep.
771
00:47:07,658 --> 00:47:10,298
Drills and needles.
772
00:47:13,197 --> 00:47:14,267
(DOOR CLOSES)
773
00:47:24,809 --> 00:47:28,052
To live in an old shack
by the sea
774
00:47:32,383 --> 00:47:33,487
(GRUNTING)
775
00:47:35,986 --> 00:47:38,967
To live with thge dawn
and the dusk
776
00:47:41,125 --> 00:47:45,198
The new moon
and the full moon
777
00:47:46,464 --> 00:47:52,312
The tides
the wind and the rain
778
00:47:53,537 --> 00:47:57,041
To surf
and comb the beach
779
00:47:57,975 --> 00:48:01,923
And gather sea shells
and driftwood
780
00:48:03,147 --> 00:48:05,525
And know the thrill
of loneliness
781
00:48:07,051 --> 00:48:09,657
And lose all sense of time
782
00:48:10,521 --> 00:48:12,159
And be free
783
00:48:15,059 --> 00:48:17,539
To hike over the island
to the village
784
00:48:19,430 --> 00:48:22,673
And visit the market place
785
00:48:22,833 --> 00:48:25,609
And enjoy the music and
the food and the people
786
00:48:27,405 --> 00:48:28,748
And do a little trading
787
00:48:30,040 --> 00:48:32,042
And see the great ships
come and go
788
00:48:32,109 --> 00:48:34,453
No, wait.
789
00:48:34,545 --> 00:48:36,354
And man, have me a ball
790
00:48:38,749 --> 00:48:42,526
And in the evening
when the sky is on fire
791
00:48:43,587 --> 00:48:47,125
Heaven and earth become
my great open cathedral
792
00:48:47,792 --> 00:48:50,033
Where all men are brothers
793
00:48:50,861 --> 00:48:54,035
Where all things
are bound by law
794
00:48:54,365 --> 00:48:56,538
And crowned with love
