True Detective Season 4 Episode 2 Review | Recap & Breakdown 

to add….. Tuttle Company > S1 Travis > Rust Cohle’s Dad!!! WOW

It wasn't confirmed that Corsaro is the mine woman's ex husband. It feels like Danvers was sleeping with more than one married man.

That corpsicle looming over the episode just gave the entire episode a subtle eeriness.

I think the little boy was Liz Danvers' biological son with husband Jake and Leah is Jake's daughter from a previous relationahip. I read somewhere that Travis was miming someone drowning, pointing to where the frozen scientists are. I don't think Danvers fails to notice things; I think she doesn't want to reveal all she knows to everybody.

It isn’t Turley united. It’s Tuttle united, which is likely quite important…

I think that Clark used the science that they were studying to try and bring Annie back, because there was something off on the cells on the tongue and they were working on stopping cellular decay I also thought it was interesting that Danvers was so involved with Navarro to the point that she knew what shelf her canned goods used to be on

I find it hard to believe this isn't going the supernatural angle when a lady literally finds bodies frozen in a tundra because a ghost leads her there. She had zero way of just "bumping into" that exact spot.

Rose says his whole name when she’s talking about him to Navarro - Travis CHOLE.

I love your analysis, your calm and cheerful attitude, and your lack of profanity. Thankyou.

Seems like there is a battle between Christianity and the Night Country demon. The Christmas tree gets replaced with the Corpsiciles. Navarro throws the cross into the show with disgust. And Danvers is ostensibly Christian but behaves just the opposite while also being very contemptuous of the native traditions.

Peter might be in danger and his daddy is in love with a Nigerian dude.

Steve, Thank you for posting.

I love watching your reviews. You explain everything in such detail without the extra fluff that other creators sometimes do. Thank you 🙏

21:01 He is mimicking drowning!! Also, you'll notice weird coincidences like that in the media put out in and outside of the show(tik toks, music videos, etc.) The eye pops up, and now this drowning dance. This is like The Thing and Twin Peaks had a baby... And I'm here for it.

Well done. You’re picking up on everything.

When they mention "Tuttle United," I immediately thought, "TuttleCorp," which made me think Mr. Robot and I started feeling those vibes for the rest of the episode... only to come to see the 'Anonymous Content' tag in the credits. This season is only 2 episodes in, and the sprawl is already there to find...

I’m loving it too! Great episode. I think the little boy is Danvers son with her husband, Leah’s dad, bc she called to a little boy in episode one “Holden”. So her son and husband Jake possibly died? And Leah is her husbands daughter. Lots of tragedy here in Corpsickle town

Could Danvers and Navarro been in an intimate relationship at one point previously. When in Navarro's home, Danvers mentioned that Navarro changed where she kept the canned goods. If not lovers, then at least really close friends that spent time at the other's home.

6 armed men cut the power to the facility, entered the facility and tossed in a few flash bangs causing ruptured eardrums and burned corneas. They are then taken out, forced to strip and tossed into a hole where they froze to death. No reanimated Annie. No monsters, no ghosts, no polar bears

I thought maybe you would be wearing a fur trim hooded parka for these episode reviews 😂. Great overview, thanks 😊

Just watched Ep2(Season4). I think the direction and placement of the spiral have different meanings; up and down, clockwise vs counter clockwise, where it opens and the direction of the spiral. For it to be so random in a show that has nothing random seems like a clue. andrew.. carolyn's son.

It was weird how nonchalant everybody was about the screaming corpsicle. There is talk of the screamers medical status, but no other mention of the screaming corpsicle by anyone. It is all anyone would be talking about.

Tuttles....from season 1. They were behind the cult

Thenk you great review!!

About the scientist that was angry at the cleaning lady because she moved his notebooks, it's just normal scientist behavior. I don't think it's a symbol for something, maybe just to show that the scientists are weird (which is usually true - we are weird). Love the video

I agree with you 100%. I don't think it's supernatural. It does have a spiritual element but it will all be able to be explained scientifically at the end. I think they will stay true to the other two detective seasons where they just hint at it, and and its actually depends on the viewer whether it's supernatural or scientific.

Tuttle United, dead travis cohle dad of rut , spiral are connections to season 1. Not only references

Tuttle shell company = Tuttle corp had all the schools where doing child sacrificing/abuse in first season. Travis is Rust dad

Holden Danvers is her son not step son. And he’s not a girl (other reviewers saying that) not how people missed this so many times lol it says his name in the credits as well

I am a little confused- I did watch TD season 1 three times (Ann Dowd addict here) but I don't remember a lot of supernatural elements confirmed. Season 2 was yuck for me. Glad you covered 3 and I'll be watching that and your videos this week. What the heck did I miss in season 1 that was confirmed supernatural?! I know I could Google it, and I might. I hope you're having a fabulous Monday

Not stepchildren. Stepchild.. the boy was hers

What are your thoughts about the ai generated posters in the episode? 😅

Honestly Liz Danvers doing the whole “ask the right questions” thing felt a little too eye roll call back to S1 for me, dialogue in general is a little generic/campy otherwise I’m interested in the mystery so far

.this was a hell of an episode

Ok is it just me Rust Dad name was Travis and when he took the leave of absence to get back into the biker gang didn't he say his Pop's had leukemia? Or maybe he told Marty later he died of leukemia??? In a distance Travis does resemble the 3rd time line Rust?? Seems too coincidental to me...anyone else?

I love your hat. What brand?

I really wanted to like this show. However, all the characters are miserable and unhappy. The dialogue is not realistic. The physical scenes are shallow and transactional. The show checks all the boxes for modern Hollywood (racism, anti-white, men are not intelligent, all relationships don’t last). It is basically Los Angeles in the snow.

They confirmed Travis is in fact rusts dad.. and they threw the name Tuttle in this episode as well.. both of those moments had me going ohhhh shhhhiiiiii.. all I’ll say is, S3 was great, but they did this same thing, a lot of hints n symbolism toward season 1, and then at the end rhey subverted it and I don’t think ir worked, it felt like they strung us along n then pulled the rug out at the end to a very underwhelming finale.. I just hope, if they’re gonna bring up all these hints and symbols from S1, they go all the way in!

Who has a better neck tattoo? Steve or Navarro??

Rust is coming back!

Is it just me or does it feel like they give away too much on the trailers? I've seen at least two or three spoilers in the trailer. I'm done watching the trailers😂

Is it just me or does this season suck so far.

Amaizing episode, characters are intriguing, story clearly connected to season 1 through Rust's Dad and the Tuttle family. Cant believe Tuttle stil dominates the world years after everything. Or what year is it? Are we parallel or after season 1 timeline? Is Rust still alive while these events transpire?

Love your insight and appreciation for everything about this amazing show! Great video!

I think its amazing so far! Love the way its weaving the story and atmosphere and characters together

I don't think Davers is messing up as a detective, but rather, she can't give Navarre hope because she's so attached to the case. She knows theories aren't facts. Facts connected the cases, not their hunch.

I thought they said Tuttle

I love all the connections to season one. I'm not sure if they're just doing it For nostalgic reasons ,or there's gonna be a real connection at the end.

At 1st I wasn't on board w Danvers was the drunk driver idea of yours but now I think she became a sex addict to cope. Meaningless hookups to keep her heart.

I love this season so far. Jodi Foster is amazing and I’m really enjoying the storyline so far.

Maybe Annie's wounds are actually STARFISH shaped because she was stabbed by a sharpened Patrick Star toothbrush. Which was replaced by a Sponge Bob toothbrush.

They should have connected all four seasons like this. It has epic potential. If I was writing it Rusty might make an appearance

you're so dope. thank you!

I don't trust this review at all. He said "I don't find any flaws in this episode. It is fun to watch." This show is hard to watch and is no fun at all because everybody is unhappy all the time and the dialogue is terrible. This review is fake and this guy is probably getting paid by the studio.

I am keenly desirous of gaining additional insights into the intricate and captivating realm of the detective crime narrative embedded within the fabric of the show. However, my fervent inclination leans towards a divergence from the aforementioned focus, as I find myself yearning for a more profound exploration of the identity politics intricately interwoven into the narrative tapestry. Moreover, I harbor a distinct dissatisfaction with the portrayal of certain male characters within the show, perceiving them as feeble and impuissant individuals, utterly devoid of the competence required to fulfill their professional obligations with commendable efficacy. In articulating my sentiments regarding the show's thematic dynamics, I am compelled to express a heartfelt yearning for a more extensive and robust discourse revolving around the indomitable strength and resilience of female characters. In my humble estimation, the show would undoubtedly benefit from a heightened emphasis on fervent and empowering discussions among its female personas, thereby contributing to a more balanced and enriching viewing experience. In summation, while my initial quest was centered around delving deeper into the detective crime elements, my evolving contemplation underscores the imperative need for a nuanced exploration of identity politics and a pronounced elevation of fierce female dialogues within the narrative framework of the show.

Steve! Thank you for your content as always. My only nitpick of the show is it relies on too many, "Uh Oh Chief, you need to get here!" for the cut to the next scene. Then I'd giggle. No more smoking before the show. So glad you're covering this one.

Much better than first review. Agree on a lot. Nice work.

Holden is Danvers son. Not step son.
