Did you guys know that Tuttle and Mary both supposedly wear red jeweled rings on their right hand that they supposedly turn before shaking hands in ep 1?

This thread is almost as good as the show


Maybe I missed it and its a long shot but what if this is all just a story Hart is writing in the True Crime genre?

I'm more curious as to why he has a picture of McConaughey circa Contact tattooed on him.

That should be explained if its not that's a little too much of a red herring

I also read some thing suggesting Maggie has an ominous role, what with her yellow flowers and father and such.

Also, maybe she deliberately sent that whore in to corrupt Marty so she could create a rift and break up their case - remember she ordered the same drink?

Funny timing, as it was right when Rust was starting to re-open the investigation. That would fit the definition as being "right under the nose", ay?

I've come to believe that the daughter's story is over. The dolls were just in Marty's mind as that reddit post showed they weren't really staged that way in the earlier shot.

I hope I'm wrong because that would be weak.

I understand that, but, to fit the puzzle piece together, Maggie could have asked him to pick up a phone for her.

really, really weak

You cannot point so often to something in a story and then let it go, unexplained. Yet, if he explains it thoroughly, he will have burned up a good portion of the 55 minutes.

That's a lot of machinations when everyone involved with him pretty much knows all she would have to do is bump into him on the street.

Is ANYBODY reading the links that I am providing?

Also, the chest tattoo is discussed in detail much earlier in this thread.

C'mon, keep up, people!

Why wouldn't it?

Why wouldn't it? as I stated above, the emphasis on the tampons (shown at least twice) would tend to show that he was sent out there by Maggie.

It is pretty easy from there:

Maggie speaks to Beth before, tells her what to do.

Marty goes in shop, as instructed by Maggie to look at phones.

Beth sees her cue and chats him up.

Now here is the stretch - there is a bar/tavern in vicinity, and Marty stops in, where Beth saddles up next to him and orders MAGGIE'S DIRTY MARTINI - but maybe Maggie knows that Marty is such a drunk he would not be able to pass up a watering hole. Like I said, THAT is the only stretch I see, because after that, Beth follows him outside and admits that she remembers him.

The phone pics could have been Maggie setting that up very easily. She has Beth send them so that she can find them and go get summa that Krayzy RustMeat - Boom.

Refresh me: what was her exact reaction right after she saw it?

"Thank you", as in "Thank you for fulfilling my plan!" - maybe?

Anyhow, she would indeed have to look at the phone to confirm that her ammo for her own betrayal was indeed delivered - i.e. if Marty was smart and he deleted the pics, she would have no justification. Also, maybe Beth was instructed to send the pics at that specific time (while Marty was in shower) to escape deletion (not sure about this one - does it show timestamps or give any time indication on the texts?).

That is an easy explanation. It looks similar to every angelic depiction I have ever seen. Why fixate on the tattoo. Ledoux straight out tells Cohle he has seen him before.

I can't get over all the looks that Charlie Lange and Marty give each other in this scene: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vla-8D_U_Po

even better, the look Ledoux gives Cohle the first time he sees him through the opened window after Marty first announces their presence

I haven't rewatched any episode and didn't notice this. He definitely has seen Cohle before but I don't think it is as any sort of accomplice role or one that Cohle is aware of. It obviously has an impact on Cohle as his meeting with Ledoux is the genesis of his philosophy that everything in life is recurring.

Im gonna have to rewatch all 7. Not sure I can do it by sunday
