My theory is that Rust gets suspended and quits the CID after he blows up on Marty. I am buying less and less into a smoke screen.


I think you could be right.

My theory: They have a falling out but after 6-7 years Rust comes back into contact with Marty about the case. It could be a few months (or years) before the interviews and says something like "hey man, let's let the past go and move on. I've been off the grid doing some undercover work about that Yellow King case. here's what I got...let's work together (discreetly) on this.."

And I think somewhere right after that, the Lake Charles murder happens and then the interviewers find both Marty and Rust.

Coming back to Maggie being potentially involved ....

When she goes to Cohle's place she is distraught. Upon entering the main room she looks around, in a circle, observing all of the stuff on the walls. Then she sets up Cohle.

She didn't say what the hell is on the walls???

Just a thought.

Didn't it seem strange the way Marty noticed the angels at Bs?

Things with Marty do seem strange. He goes to a place where the girl works, takes tampons into a bar and then bangs the girl while looking at her angels....

For me, I took that to be more reflective of Marty's struggles with his inner demons considering he had supposedly given up whoring about, alcohol, and had found religion. I imagined him to have just a little moment of clarity mid-thrust where he thought "Oh crap... I'm doing this self-destructive shite again, aren't I?" He appeared to have gotten over any guilt pretty quick, though!

I also thought that Rust knew what was going on when with Marty when he got into his face about his disheveled appearance before they argued about the report.

Stolen from reddit:

May be pure coincidence, but there is a painting in Marty and Maggie's bedroom that exactly matches the wall at the hospital where Rust went to the visit the girl in the last episode.

When she walked in she looked at the walls and had this wtf look on her face......
She asks rust what's going on and rust tells her he was suspended......

I wouldn't call it an exact match, but very similar.

Same here. Also, Rust tells Marty he needs to write up the report because he needs to spend time with his family. I thought it was a subtle jab of "I know you aren't really spending that much time at home, so make yourself useful."

I can't wait to see what is in that video that Rust shows Marty and Marty screams NO.
