Fargo has always been a "true story." Many elements could've been different according to who is telling the story and what their intentions are.
Season 1- Lorne Malvo being some sort of supernatural killer... or is Lester actually making that up because he is a coward?
Season 2- UFO comes down and distracts the gang guy for the Chief to make the kill. But according to who? The chief never told the story to anyone.
Season 3 takes this to another level. Based on the political climate of 2016/2017 in America, many lies are being told. This season uses that as a foundation. The very first scene of the entire season. A guy being questioned for being Yuri. He is not Yuri, yet they say he is. It is said on the paper that it is indeed Yuri. We find out later that it is not Yuri and Yuri is a henchman of VM Varga of this season.
Take the paper as what is shown to us during this season. Why should we believe it is a true story? Is Gloria really so invisible she does not activate the sink sensor? Or is it just the way she feels invisible to the world? Was her stepfather really a writer of sci-fi who went to Hollywood? Or is this just a story? Did God truly sit in a bowling alley and give Nikki car keys and punish Yuri? Or did she steal a car and kill Yuri?
Now to my main point of the season. Could Emmit Stussy really be the main bad guy of this season even though he is shown to be the good guy? Did he actually mean to kill his brother rather than the little accident with the stamp frame? Was he really a clueless business partner of VM Varga or an acquaintance? I see people saying there are huge plot holes. How did the car start even though it broke down? Could that have been just a story and Emmit killed both the police officer and Nikki? What truly happened here? It is down to interpretation for the viewer. Now watch the last scene between Varga and Gloria with this interpretation in mind.
