‘True Detective: Night Country’ Episode 2 Analysis: Did They Already Reveal the Killer? Our Latest Burning Questions and Observations


"True Detective: Night Country" Episode 2 gets closer to the killer behind a group of scientists' grotesque deaths and a previously unsolved murder.

In last week’s premiere, viewers were introduced to Liz Danvers ( Jodie Foster) and Evangeline Navarro ( Kali Reis), two law enforcement officers in the fictional mining town of Ennis, Alaska. According to a quick flash of his bio on the show last week, Clark is a “Royal Society Wolford Fellow in Paleomicrobiology.” We learned in episode 1 that he had some sort of connection to Annie: He is seen in photos wearing a jacket that once belonged to her. Last week, we noticed the citizens of both TSALAL and Ennis seem to enjoy Lone Star beer — the same brew that Rustin “Rust” Cohle (Matthew McConaughey) and Martin “Marty” Hart (Woody Harrelson) consumed on the show a decade ago.
