Plot

In 1951, Fargo, North Dakota, Otto brings Dodd along to a movie theater for a meeting with Kellerman, the man who killed Otto's father. Dodd kills him and avenges his grandfather while Otto kills Kellerman's henchmen.

28 years later, as Otto is being taken to a doctor's appointment, Simone has sex with Milligan, inadvertently mentioning the doctor visit. The Kitchens then eliminate Otto's guards in the parking lot outside the medical clinic, leaving Otto unharmed.

Meanwhile, Floyd, Dodd, and Bear meet with Bulo and propose a counter-offer to his buyout in the form of a partnership. Bulo balks at the idea, since Dodd assaulted two of his men earlier. Bulo phones his superiors who reject the Gerhardts' proposal. They now offer two million dollars less than the first offer and demand the Gerhardts' complete surrender.

In Luverne, Hanzee's investigation leads him to find Rye's belt buckle in the Blumquist fireplace. Lou talks to the Blumquists regarding his suspicions that they are involved in Rye's death, but they stubbornly refuse to cooperate. He warns them of the Gerhardts' violent history.

At the Gerhardt farm, Floyd tells the family to prepare for war.

Production

The music for the episode was provided by series composer Jeff Russo.[2]
