Hey, why is there paper on the windows?

Word for word.

You really want me to say all this?

Yeah?

once upon a time,

There was a little boy.

He was born in a field and raised in the woods.

And he had nothing.

In the winter the boy would freeze,

And in the summer he would boil.

He knew the name of every stinging insect.

At night he would look at the lights in the houses,

And he would want.

Why was he outside and they in?

Why was he so hungry and they fed?

"it should be me," he said.

And out of the darkness the wolves came,

Whispering.

Do you understand what I'm saying?

Yeah.

gustafson parking garage, high noon.

Well, did it sound like he's gonna pay?

I--I don't know what that sounds like.

So is the greek the boy or...

Give me that duffel over there, and I'll tell you.

Hey, uh...

what's with all the duct tape?

I'm telling you, folks,

Things are shaping up to make this

One of the worst blizzards in minnesota history,

The perfect storm or what have you.

This is definitely one for the record books.

that's right, norm.

And expect whiteouts and blizzard-like conditions.

And since it's to move slightly down from canada,

Also expect poor road conditions and even closures.

So, folks, please avoid driving today

Unless you absolutely have to.

Gosh, avoid going--

starting to come down out there.

Storm of the century, they're saying.

Is greta here?

No, she's at a friend's.

Thought it would be safer.

um, you didn't have to come.

I was coming anyway. Told you last night.

Just left a little earlier is all.

So, um, you really think this malvo fella

Was at your apartment?

Not at the apartment, outside.

Uh, my neighbor, he does the watch.

Said he saw this fella sitting in his car

Outside the apartment.

May even have followed me here, I'm thinking.

So the neighbor-- jewish fella--

He gives the guy a warning, you know,

A kinda "move along."

Said the fella was real menacing in return.

Had a police scanner, he said.

Talked about how maybe he was gonna

Come back and kill the neighbor and his family.

Aw, jeez.

Did you call it in?

Well, see,

I don't think they'd believe me is the thing.

I mean, not after, you know, I arrest the wrong fella,

Being what they think.

So there's that.

He get a plate number, your neighbor?

Yeah, yeah.

He, uh... I called it in.

Suv of some type, company car.

Which company?

The grocery chain, you know. July in January.

Phoenix farms. Right.

Which...

This malvo fella's saying he's a pastor,

So I'm not sure of the connection there.

Well, maybe we should drive over,

See what they say.

Yeah. Let me get changed.

Morning, mr. Creech.

And how are we feeling there, mr. Nygaard?

Oh, yeah.

Real good. Ready to go home.

Well, now, that's up to him, I suppose.

So how's your pain level on a scale of one to ten?

Uh, yeah, not bad.

So maybe a three?

hmm?

Wh-what's with, uh...

Why is there a police officer outside?

Not for me to say, is it?

Okay, mr. Creech,

I'll be back to take you to radiology in ten minutes.

I'm his brother, chazz.

Chazz nygaard.

Lester, it's me.

Hey.

What did you do?

When? Come on, lester.

There's a deputy outside the door, for pete's sake.

I just...Ah...

Cut my hand on a-- some rusty nail.

Not sure how that involves local law enforcement.

They said you were there when the police chief got murdered.

Well, heck.

I think I'd remember that.

Unless... I don't know,

With the head injury maybe...
