Pardon my French, I'm still coming off the fumes from the episode so stay with me here, from opening frame to last I was loving this hour (or hour and a half because of commercials) of television. Its opening montage had me as soon as Jethro Tull's locomotive breath came through the speakers on the t.v., this particular music choice smacked a grin on my face. I just love it when a movie or show knows how to utilize good music such as Fargo, this is something they have already established many times this year and episode alone.
As if I wasn't having a good enough time with this opening montage they laid to rest one of the ambiguous notes from last weeks episode, old Otto Gerhardt is gone. Simone pays her price for sleeping with the enemy (whose fate is left to some ambiguity), and the undertaker makes an appearance. Outside of the synopsis I have to say that this episode just furthers my admiration for this terrific season of Fargo. In last weeks review that I wrote I mentioned that I hope this weeks episode is another home run and I am glad to say that this episode knocks it out of the park.
Of course I have yet to mention my favorite aspect of this weeks episode.They answered another ambiguous hanger from episode 6 at the end, Peggy and Ed have kidnapped Dodd and are headed towards Sioux Falls. That's right folks, they have set forth the actions that will lead to the massacre in Sioux Falls.
Overall I'm glad this season has managed to not just masterfully sustain tension but also pay it off quite well. Believe me there's many other bits I could talk about but I hope this is still useful. Enjoy the show and tune in for these final 3 episodes of the season and of this story for they are most likely going to knock the ball further out of the park than this and previous episodes had. Thanks for reading and enjoy the show.
