That had to be some way to communicate with the aliens, right?
Yeah what exactly was the deal with the hieroglyphs?

I'm assuming it's my guess, but it is just that... a guess.

There have been a few UFO mentions - a glimpse here and there. Looks like Ted Danson's been playing with aliens.
Def related to the UFOs  
Lafferty, Daniel : 11/25/2015 10:36 am : link
hes been communicating -- or trying to!
Such and epically good show!  
Lafferty, Daniel : 11/25/2015 10:36 am : link
its the best show since Breaking Bad
Lou Solverson is a fuckin bad ass cop  
Lafferty, Daniel : 11/25/2015 10:38 am : link
. I also love when Nick Offerman aka Karl Weathers went "Full Swanson" so to speak lol

So, did Bear do the deed?

Or did he leave Simone out there to take a long walk and think about things? His demeanor would imply she's in the ground (her words earlier in the episode being prophetic), but odd that they didn't show it when they're pretty graphic with the violence on that show.
Examples of alien stuff?

Ive totally missed that.
This might have been  
NewFakeDannyHeep : 11/25/2015 10:49 am : link
the prettiest looking episode so far. All those infinity mirror shots, and the UFO-eye view of the woods with Bear and Simone.

The whole reason Rye Gerhadt was in the road when he got hit is because he saw/was memorized by a UFO that appeared in the field across from the diner.

I believe there was another UFO sighting in which the Indian sort of took it all in and embraced the presence.

Lastly, the Solverson daughter drew a family portrait with crayons and included a UFO type ship in the picture.
Gotcha...I now remember the UFO that Rye was looking at  
Bold Ruler : Mod : 11/25/2015 10:53 am : link
forgot that.
I'm inclined to think Bear put her in the ground  
Lafferty, Daniel : 11/25/2015 10:53 am : link
but it is too soon to tell. She basically had her own family executed. She is a victim of the entire situation in many ways and never had much of a choice but it seems like she gone now, one way or another.
The UFO references are very subtle  
jcn56 : 11/25/2015 10:56 am : link
they're easy to miss, but at the same time they're impossible to overlook. Question is - are the UFO sightings relevant to the story, or are they a red herring? I don't know how they'd work them in, but the writers have done a great job up until now, I'm sure they'd find a good way to do so if they so choose.
I got pretty pumped when it became clear  
Lafferty, Daniel : 11/25/2015 10:58 am : link
it was Ed Blumquist's voice on the other end of the phone line. Pretty funny how the "Butcher of Leverne" went from a made up/embellishment to a fulfilling prophecy -- Ed is not fucking around/not trying to get killed or caught!!
Last night's episode was

The best of the season. Stunning.

The overshot shots in the forest seemed like the aliens looking down on them.
Great point about those overhead shots  
Lafferty, Daniel : 11/25/2015 11:27 am : link
I hadn't thought about that.

Also -- bigtime respect to Mike Milligan on taking out the Undertaker, that was sick

Looked like a Miller's Crossing tribute.

I think he killed her, they didn't show it because I think they want you to wonder.

If he didn't kill her, they seemed to be in a pretty remote area and she wasn't dressed very warmly.
Even though the Betsy-Karl scene caused a salty discharge  
shockeyisthebest8056 : 11/25/2015 4:15 pm : link
from my eyes, I didn't care for the episode. Bear killing Simone (I'm assuming) was rather shitty, regardless of his terrible decisions.
not sure he killed her  
mdc1 : 11/25/2015 4:48 pm : link
you did not hear a gunshot unless it was intentional to not have it although he did kill her.
Oops...  
shockeyisthebest8056 : 11/25/2015 4:56 pm : link
I said his. I meant "her" terrible decisions.
Awesome show, awesome episode  
5BowlsSoon : 11/25/2015 5:14 pm : link
The alien angle adds to the coolness. Sioux Falls massacre up next.
She was killed  
Headhunter : 11/25/2015 5:43 pm : link
Bear didn't punch up his truck afterwards because he didnt kill her

I tend to believe she was killed, but why do you think that would make a difference? He easily could have reacted that way because he didn't have it in him to finish the job.

she did cause the death of multiple family members, he probably saved the life of a few more.
