1 | * Gus stops Malvo after running a stop sign. Malvo calmly and creepily intimidates Gus into leaving him alone, and due to Billy Bob Thornton's utterly skin-crawling performance, it's nigh-impossible not to sympathize with Gus. Malvo gives the impression of being a black hole of evil who won't be stopped by a lone cop. |
2 | * Malvo ties Don Chumph up with an unloaded gun taped to his hands, gags him and then attracts the attention of the police. He then shoots from a safe spot, causing the cops to open fire on a helpless Don who can only desperately and vainly scream through his gag as he's cut down. It's a horrific, prolonged death. |
3 | * After the TimeSkip in "The Heap", we see that Lester has gotten his life back together, has a loving new wife, and just got named "Insurance Salesman of the Year". Yessiree, everything seems to be goin' gangbusters for ol' Lester... and then he runs into Lorne Malvo. [[OhCrap Aww]] ''[[OhCrap jeez]]''... |
4 | * "Is this what you want, Lester?" |
5 | * How Linda is sent to her death by her own husband. |
6 | * In the closing act of the finale where Malvo is trying to fix his fractured leg (courtesy of a bear trap laid by Lester), we get to see the flesh and bone sticking out as he applies the brace. Jeez. |
7 | * Also when Gus shows Malvo's collection of tape recordings to Molly, indicating that Lester was just one of many people that Malvo corrupted into becoming as much of a monster as he was. |
8 | * WordOfGod (i.e. Billy Bob Thornton) says that the thoughts going through Lorne Malvo's head in his final moments were: |
9 | -->"Nice job, Gus. I taught you well." |
10 | -->"I guess this is it. My job is done." |
