![]() ![]() (Yeah, he’s definitely not a guy who voluntarily does his own laundry.) She immediately checks his phone for text messages and gets Beth’s naked selfies. Maggie, who is much smarter than Marty understands, figures out that he’s cheating the moment she finds his clothes in the wash. ![]() Now that she moved on, he’s come back into her life, and he immediately starts treating her like a prostitute. There’s a dark irony here: When she was a prostitute, he gave her money in hopes of helping her move on. Not only is she a woman from Marty’s past, but in initiating an affair, she compels him to re-create the events that nearly ended his marriage in 1995.īeth takes Marty to her apartment-an apartment decorated with statues of angels and devils, and a creepy collage of faces on her vanity mirror-and fucks him. Beth is the incarnation of history repeating itself. Sound familiar? It’s almost exactly what Rust says to a murder suspect in Episode 3, the first time we see him do an interrogation. Has she been dreaming about him all these years, her white knight who handed her the contents of his wallet and told her to do something better? It’s puzzling, the eagerness with which this young knockout pursues Marty. He doesn’t recognize her at first, but when she spies him at the Fox and Hound (heh) bar, she pounces. Speaking of whom, here’s the underage prostitute from the brothel! She’s now a respectable phone saleswoman going by the name of Beth. In short, he falls off the wagon quite spectacularly, while running to the store to buy tampons his family. Not after all this time," says Maggie-obviously still angry.Īnd now we learn what happens with Marty after the 2002 prison incident. But I’m big enough to not stay angry at someone for that. And Marty’s single big problem was that he never really knew himself, so he never really knew what to want. "Rust knew exactly who he was, and there was no talking him out of it. Little do the detectives realize that Maggie intends to lie her way through their questions, just like Rust and Marty did. ![]() So ask your questions or I’m leaving," she tells them. "In a former life, I used to exhaust myself navigating crude men who thought they were clever. Maggie has very little patience for their interrogation game. Papania and Gilbough think she can shed some light on the enigma that is Rust Cohle. Sawyer?) is seated right in between where Cohle and Hart were seated: the dusty storage bos on one side of her, the open door on the other. Welcome to 2012, Maggie! Marty’s ex-wife they called her Mrs. Her nurse looks on in shock, because apparently this revelation never came up in seven years of therapy? And now we’re left to wonder if LeDoux was the tall man with the scars-as was previously believed-or if the "giant" was someone else entirely.Īnd now let’s return to 2012, where somebody familiar has walked into the police office. He made me watch what he did to Billy," says Kelly, before she breaks into screams of horror. Rust wants to know if there were more than two men involved in whatever happened. Remember when Cohle said that, time being a flat circle, those kids are trapped in that room forever, forced to re-live the horror over and over? In Kelly’s case, that’s actually true. I started to expect each Cohle scene to be preceded by a "thunk-thunk" sound and the name of an intersection.) Tragically, Kelly suffers from "regressive catatonia" and lives at a psychiatric facility. (This is about the time when the episode started to seem a little too _Law and Order-_like for comfort. Next on Cohle’s list is Kelly, the barely-alive girl he rescued from LeDoux’s compound. (Where did that saying come from? Could it be something his father said to him before a similar beating?) Throughout the scene, director Cary Fukunaga shoots Martin through bars, as if he were actually the one in prison. "A man’s game charges a man’s price," says Hart, before he starts mercilessly beating the boys, one after the other. But as he pulls on a pair of black gloves, it’s clear that he has something else in mind. Hart’s logical means for revenge would be to pursue statutory rape charges it would be well within his purview as a police officer. The episode opens with a sense of dread as Hart walks into a jail cell, where he faces down the two young men caught having (consensual) car sex with his sixteen-year-old daughter. Can we all agree that Martin Hart is now officially scarier than Rustin Cohle? The momentum of the Marty-is-the-Yellow-King theory has been steadily gaining traction among internet obsessives, and Episode 6, "Haunted Houses," will do nothing to slow its momentum. ![]()
