Yep, very distracted. I watched the first two episodes between vital checks and antibiotic drips of my son's... septic knee and staph infection of the femur is no joke. I need to watch all three episodes again for sure.
M.C. Swag said:lol we don't know yet. When the PI showed up at the nursing home, the Secretary mentioned something about "all the reporters." The PI looks into what happened recently to cause reporters swooping in to a nursing home in this town and discovers that one of the staff - a young black man - was arrested and convicted of killing two young girls about the same time that Terry visited Dayton.ItsA&InotA&M said:
What was going on in the jail cell when the guy slit his throat?
What did I miss?
This is the same man we see in the prison earlier in the episode, who kills himself at the end of the episode rather than let another inmate do the deed. The mystery deepens; another instance of a child murder, this time in Dayton, Ohio just weeks before the murder in Cherokee Creek, Georgia. The only connection is Terry Maitland and the van, and possibly the strange cut that he got from a male nurse when he visited his father.
Speculation;
At this point, it seems more and more likely that someone - or something - is somehow killing these children as an impostor, taking the identities of men like Terry Maitland and the man from the nursing home, right down to their fingerprints and DNA, essentially framing them and then moving on to new victims.

Oh and btw, the detective guy who was hunting and started the fight in the strip club - played by Marc Menchaca - is the bearded, secretly gay uncle dude from Ozark. More importantly, though, Menchaca is also an Aggie.

Super random, completely inconsequential question... but as I was watching episode three I started to wonder... at this point, who, exactly, is funding this case? With Terry dead, from the police perspective, isn't the case now essentially closed? Or do the clothes discovered in the barn warrant further time/resources? I'm also wondering why Terry's wife's lawyer (Bill Camp) still has skin in the game / still has his P.I. looking into everything, which is no doubt costing him money as well. And who's paying Dibney's fee? The police or Terry's wife's lawyer, as both were represented in their meeting at the bar? Again, not a big deal in the least, I'm just not sure how any of this works in the real world, so it was something I was wondering in the wake of Terry's death.

I totally forgot about the civil suit. Makes perfect sense in that regard. Good call.
But yeah, Terry's lawyer working with Mendelsohn still doesn't quite jibe. In fact, it was the scene in episode three where the four of them - Terry's lawyer, his PI, Mendelsohn and his detective colleague - were together in that office building and first started mentioning Dibney that I was like, "Wait, what?" That said, I actually love the adversaries-coming-together vibe, I was just curious as to the actual logistics of it all.
Beyond a civil suit they also have doubts that it was Terry who did the crime. The detective has said that if Terry didn't do it, their work isn't done. So from the police perspective, I don't think the case is done.TCTTS said:

Why did bateman fly between his town and the teacher conference when it was 70 miles away?
That part makes no sense. No one would fly that distance.
Maybe i confused it with the Dayton fam vacation but pretty sure he said he hopped on a flight with 2 other people to go to the teacher conference on censoring books as his alibi.
Where did you hear that he flew to the conference?coastsrs said:

Seemed like standard protocol to me. Overwhelming DNA evidence prolly prohobited bail so where else would they be?Silky Johnston said:
Really digging this show. Only question/complaint is how fast the justice system seems to be working in this series. The black guy that "killed" the girls was already convicted, sentenced, and put in jail in a matter of four weeks? Or, was he just being held until trial? Same with the hispanic chick that Gibney interviewed in jail.
I'm guessing they had not gone to trial yet.Silky Johnston said:
