Fargo: Somebody to Love (2017)
Season 3, Episode 10
8/10
Comeuppance
22 June 2017
Warning: Spoilers
If this show has taught us anything over the past 3 seasons, it's to expect the unexpected while also realizing people usually get their comeuppance anyway. It's easy to see which character will usually end up on the wrong side of a kill, but I hardly ever expect how exactly the show will present said death. Fargo is an unusual show where they can go 10 episodes without ever gaining much momentum or flow through the episodes, and still produce a quality season. It's hard to imagine this season ever reaching the re-watchability of the first two seasons, but it proved itself as a fascinating tale of truth vs propaganda. It all started with the interrogation scene in Germany, and it ends with an interrogation between Gloria and Varga, two people so opposite of each other in morals and ideals. But is the important thing who's actually right, or who believes in their ways of life more? I think it's important to note that this whole season has shown just how confident Varga can be even in the most dire circumstances, and just how much Gloria doubts herself. Could this scene be the turn for them both? Well, I don't think we'll ever get that answer. Just another open-ended story, which was probably for the best. In all, the season never boasted the shock value or relentless momentum that the first two had, but it still managed to be a gloriously irreverent tale nonetheless.
