[SHOW]
Marty was the one who killed Ledoux after all. Pretty convenient if you're trying to cover something up. He might have seen Cohle pushing the case to a conclusion, so he pushed Cohle harder to find someone to tag it on to get coverage. Either he did it, or he knows/is connected to them.

It's likely that Christian Fundamentalism is to blame for the deaths somehow. The Governor's brother is probably tied up in it somehow, using the task force to cover up his sins. Marty's line about "I'm in Promise Keepers" was unsettling for some reason. I think it's establishing his connection to Christianity and thus the killings.

With a show like "The Killing" where the whole tag line was "Who Killed Rosie Larsen???!!!" you can't leave it hanging like that. It sells out the audience. This show is way beyond who killed who when and where, and it's so much more about the relationships between the people and the polar opposites of religious dedication and nihilism...which might not be such polar opposites. It doesn't matter if they find the killer to me the way it did in "The Killing." Probably explains why I love this and hated "The Killing."
That's a great breakdown.

Gotta be Downton Abbey season finale!


That parking lot fight was awesome (the True D one, the Downton Abbey one wasn't as good).

Marty does have sex with a lot of hot women. Of course, after Alexandra Daddario, all else is only second-best.

There have been many boobs on HBO over the years. That young lady might have the Prettiest Boobs To Ever Appear On HBO.
