On Fargo S5E4, “Insolubilila”
On Halloween night, Gator and his masked crew invade Dot and Wayne’s home. She has the house booby-trapped, so Dot and her family are able to escape, but not before Wayne is severely injured and the house catches on fire and burns down.
Officers Olmstead and Farr have confirmed that Dot was the victim that was kidnapped and are trying to question Dot about the events while getting shot down by Lorraine and Danish.
Meanwhile, Munch left an ominous note in the girls’ room at the Tillman house after breaking in.
