In prison, cigarettes are used as a type of commerce. Lorraine gives him cigarettes as final salt in the wound because it will probably save Roy from a savage beating for just one day, so he needs to spend it wisely. Lorraine's gesture is like robbing a bank for thousands and leaving behind just $1.
Yep, cigarettes are prison currency and a cliched notion of buying your way to avoid grave harm behind bars…it’s metaphorical. Roy grabbing it was his acknowledgment of desperation/hopeless (one pack of cigarettes will not save him).
In true Lorraine fashion, just one pack of cigarettes is extremely cruel because that won't be nothing and after what she said Roy probably will be smoking them himself 😅...
Fargo has been good at incorporating esoteric figures into their storylines S1: Malvo as fear/the predator S2: The UFO S3: Varga and the Wandering Jew S4: The Snowman Ghost S5: The SinEater / Moonk
Roy and Munch and Lorraine were old testament--an eye for an eye. Dot turns out to be new testament--forgive me my trespasses as I forgive others who trespass against me. She even gives Munch the equivalent of communion (bIsquick style) and redeems him.
SINCE THE CURSE AND FARGO IS OVER NOW LET ME KNOW WHAT TO WATCH NEXT!
Currently im only watching the new season of True Detective.
Minnesota resident here, love that they stopped the munch fight with hospitality!
omg so awesome to have someone from Minnesota!! that was such a wholesome ending

That's actually a really good observation, I particularly liked how the UFO was incorporated in S2
Lorraine accepting Dot as not only a Lyon but as a daughter of her own warmed my heart.
That phone call in the penultimate episode made me tear up :')

ah thats an interesting interpretation!
That’s how I interpreted it as well….
The actor who played Trooper Witt, was a show "The New Girl" where he was a cop, named Winston. His character had a cat and 6 sisters.
Ohhh, thats an awesome reference, I really would like to see more of this actor
I wonder if that implies way out of his element in this show.
Love that you love fargo s2
what the hell is this nick mullen from the adam friedland show?! and yeah everything about season 2 was just top tier!
It killed me with the dinner scene, one trying to be serious the other like...anywho. 😀
"Ever drive a Kia, its like driving a cloud. " 😂lmfao
This is the single most Minnesotan shit ever. We do it all the time.
LOL at "double tap!"
This season was pretty bad imo.
It was awesome.
