Stray Ob: The OG Fargo music signals "the end of the road" for the wicked. Even VM Varga.

More Stray obvs:
+ Mrs. Hudson's line about Sherlock leading with emotion, over intellect. He stabs things!

More stray obvs: 1) The split screen effect was popularized in the 70s. 2) So were UFO theories 3) "I'm from New Jersey" smokes tobacco, cause you know, he's an Indian.
