I'm no longer in the "Marty did it" camp after further research. I feel that the cult is unavoidable at this point.
We can assume that there are red herrings implicating Marty. One being the fact that he tends to wear shades or hangs out in the car when possible cult related people are interviewed. This still bothers me.

If anyone goes back to episode 2 and watches the scene at the bunny ranch when Marty is left alone with the woman who holds the lease, it seems almost as if they know each other.

I'm not so sure about that. Check Marty's wife's reaction to the train incident with the daughter. When she goes upstairs to knock, she wisperes, "c'mon baby open the door, It's just you and me". I took that to mean, I can relate to what you are going through. I've been there. How so? Because the FIL indoctrinated his daughter and now his granddaughter into the cult at young ages. Maybe a reach, but a definite possibility.



Or.... She is being a mom. Dad flew off the handle (rightfully so) and mom is there to coddle her. It's only me and not your pissed off dad.

Marty says something about the girl at the bunny ranch not being 18 and then the woman replies something along the lines of "such holy bullshite from you" as if she knows how marty is

I need a reminder: Tuttle is not anywhere on their radar in 1995 or, as far as we know, up until 2002, correct? I know his name was mentioned, but they never said "Tuttle is involved" or followed a clue because it was related to Tuttle?

I think Rust was skeptical of Tuttle from the beginning, but no his name doesn't come up until 2002

Correct.

ETA: Rust just found all that cultish stuff at the old Tuttle school which I guess occurred in 2002. That is what sends them to Tuttle, IMHO.

*Crazy
*Vengeful
*Access to cops/courts (potential string pullers) and her semi-open fallout with Hart could make her an attractive target for someone looking to get to Hart

I'm not claiming that its a lock or staking my reputation on it, just wondering if the writers could try to work than angle.

That's a good policy. Still, I hate the thought of dem tittays being finished on the show.

ETA:

Does anyone think Hart told Maggie the truth when she asked if he had cheated on her with anyone else?

If Marty is involved in the cult, his killing Reggie would have to be explained. Do you kill fellow cult members when they are caught? Reggie didn't seem to be very rich and powerful, so he may not have been one of the cult leaders. Are the sacrifices willing members of the cult or are they just victims outside of the cult (or a little of both)? Miles hasn't been introduced yet so there are still other possibilities for rich and powerful cultists.

Is Tuttle involved? Yes (maybe both cousins). Is Pastor Theriot involved? Not certain. They burned his churches down twice. Who would have done it if he is a cult member?

There are several red herrings, so the story still has to develop further.

I guess the reason Marty killed Reggie is because he got exposed (with the children). Marty killed him in part he was pissed about Reggie's sloppiness or just to cover a connection. This is if you believe Marty is in a cult....which I don't.....sorta.
