Just that it is hard for me to believe that somehow the ppl in the top floor couldn't hear Malvo coming up and do something. Also if we look at a syndicate or gang (idk) like V.M.

Possibly, "Moses Tripoli" has turned more into a title, rather than a personal name.

It doesn't add much narratively, but it's a convenient way of explaining the visual discrepancies.

Edit: I'm not sure about season 3, but seasons 1, 2 and 4 all have people or places named Pearl. Lester's wife (s1), Pearl Hotel (s2) and Ethelrida's middle name (s4).

Great recap of all of the connections! One question: i could have sworn it was little Dodd Gearhart, not dad Otto, who killed Kellerman in the movie theatre (by stabbing him in the back) in 1951. Otto then wiped everyone else out with a gun. Am I wrong? Thanks again for a great video.

Oh geez, you're right. Otto brings Dodd, and he's the one that stabbed him. Probably should have made that clearer since the clip is brief.

In Season Three where we see old Mr. Stussey watching TV shortly before he is killed by having his nose and mouth glued shut, the scene on the black and white TV shows lights from overhead circling around on the ground around some people in a parking lot. It is, in fact, a snippet from the motel shootout scene from Season Two where the UFO is hovering overhead and shining a light down on Trooper Solverson and Bear Gehrhardt fighting to the death hand to hand. So old Mr. Stussey in Season Three is watching a scene from Season Two on TV. I love it.

Whew! A lot of work went into this. My wife and I just started binging Fargo a couple weeks ago and actually started with Season 5 because it was the first to pop up on Hulu. We THEN realized there were four previous seasons so we went back to ONE. Because we are binging and not letting some stuff "sink in", I am a bit confuseled on the connections. Thanks for this... and at some point I will probably watch again in order.

@4:27 - Notice that Joe Bulo is in the passenger rear seat with Gayle Kitchen (reddish brown jacket) driving along an open road. At the end of season 4, Mike is now sitting where Joe was (after his decapitation) and Gayle is still driving (before meeting the same fate via Hanzee). Then at the end of season 2, we see Mike in his new office. Thus we can assume that Mike has Joe's old position in the organization... before he is gunned down (assuming) by Lorne.
