True Detective 2.2 FAQ
What’s it called?
“Night Finds You.”
What says HBO?
Written by Nic Pizzolatto; directed by Justin Lin. (HBO provided far more descriptive “True Detective” loglines last year.)
How does it start?
“How’d the water stain get there?” asks Frank Semyon. Vince Vaughn’s character then offers a story about hungry rats.
Do “Wedding Crashers” co-stars Vince Vaughn and Rachel McAdams finally share a scene this week?
No. But Taylor Kitsch brushes up against Vaughn next week.
Do we learn this week what Rust 2012 does for a living?
What?
The big news?
2.2 ends rather more dramatically than 2.1.
What else is HBO not telling us?
Casper, the Vinci city manager whose murder is the heart of season two, was bound upside down, according to the coroner.
What’s great?
Vince Vaughn generally and his conversation with a beaten man beneath a bridge. Velcoro’s partner’s gaydar. Colin Farrell. Lolita Davidovich. Casper’s therapist. “Just one question.” “I really do.” “I thought it was smoking me.” “Can’t round off zero!” “Yeah? Why would you do that?” “Sometimes a good beating promotes personal growth.” “And you weren’t strong enough to stay decent!” “I don’t know what that means; I’m asking you!” “I wish we could figure out what you did!!” “She became a detective.” “Anyways, goodnight.”
What’s not so great?
“Maybe it’s just a little too close to sucking a robot’s dick.”
How does it end, spoiler boy?
“That’s not mine.”
9 p.m. Sunday. HBO.
