@@omnipotentpumpkin9755 Absolutely. But the quiet kind. Like, they go to church, come home, chop up their kids, toss the parts in a nearby pasture, and blame it on the neighbor's cows.
For those who don't understand the plot, there was a gang war in the midwest between criminal syndicates. I think it was the Kansas City mob against the Minneapolis mob.

1:10 Ben Schmidt says "Aw Christ, it's Rapid City all over again!" In season one, Schmidt is scolding Gus Grimley for letting Malvo go, and he says "Christ, it's Sioux Falls all over again."
Seeing this shootout, which was a reference to the story Molly’s dad tell Malvo in the diner is what made me fall in love with the series. All the seasons are connected in one way or another. Whether it’s the Souix Falls shootout or Mr Wrench coming back in season 3.
The definition of Fargo is about ordinary people in extraordinary situations making bad decisions. The original movie was packed with bad decisions as are all five of the TV series. This clip is the climax of the turf war between the Gerhardt family and the Kansas City mob, although it is the police who are all in white t-shirts. (This was Captain Cheney's spectacularly stupid decision to have all the police out of uniform - Captain Cheney, by the way, is the officer who said "No" before being blown away), so he paid for his stupidity. If you think this clip is nuts wait till you see Season Five - very dark and very brutal.
He's supposed to be a WWI veteran. Which makes no sense because the show takes place in 1979 and also all of the details he gives about his service are all nonsensical.
@@alexmarlow2508 seasons 1 and 2 are good. They're also somewhat connected but you don't need to have watched the previous seasons to get what's going on. Season 4 wasn't very good in my opinion. Didn't see season 3, though.
It shocked and delighted me. My wife and I saw a UFO together. Was within 500' to 1000'. Brightly glowing red triangle flew over us on the beach at night. Astounding.
If you watch season 2 of Fargo, the UFO appears at least four times and even instigates the main "complication" in the very first episode. The entire season is an exploration of case studies of applying the Myth of Sisyphus and the role that outside forces play in determining the outcome of our lives. The UFO is an ultimate metaphor of "outside forces" changing lives. There are plenty of other examples of more realistic "outside forces" discussed and presented in the season, however.
@@amsfountain8792 basically Hanzee had told the Dodd’s that KC Mafia had taken Dodd but that he was still alive (which was not true, Hanzee had murdered him earlier that day) so basically Floyd and the crew thought they were ambushing a fellow family in order to get Dodd.

It’s never explained in the show, but there’s tons of fan theories and analyses on RUclips. It’s almost definitely a reference to the Coen Brothers film “The Man Who Wasn’t There,” which has a scene with a UFO that’s also never explained.
The show-runner said at the time that when writing the season they like to add little pieces of history or local tales into the stories based on the location they’re setting the season in. The UFO was a reference to a newspaper article in the early 70’s when a Minnesota state trooper reported seeing a UFO while out on patrol.
except the way the big dude handles the shotgun and when he runs with it instead of shooting with it.... this is absolutely cool. Oh and also the shotguns without shells...
Man here I was watching this knowing absolutely nothing about the show thinking it might be related to the movie Fargo and then I see some random ass aliens show up and leave within seconds.
lmao same I was trying to wrap my head around who was fighting who and how many factions there are here now and that UFO just says passes by to say hi like !?!?!?!?!?!
This season is set in the 70s and there are a lot of references to conspiracy theories and ufos but yeah, the actual ufo comes out of nowhere. I kind of see it as representative of random chance and the idea of characters being judged, both of which are strong themes in Coen bros films (obviously the series isn’t actually by them but it uses common themes from their work).
What the hell? 😂😂😂 I was watching a straight on full-on shootout and I thought Hanzee was there to save the day going full on John Wick then it turned into a GTA Online scene with that UFO showing up! 😂😂😂
I seen a combat vet having a shootout with some cops and he was even better at dodging bullets than what's on display here. It was terrifying. Dude was a marine through and through.
It's all fun and games until Hanzee gets involved. I always felt that his character's actions were more in the desire to cleanse himself of evil influence. It was all around him. Suffocating him. For decades. This was his exit strategy.
This illustrates why police don't want you getting too close to them. That bear was the whole way across the parking lot, and, even though he was hit by three shots (one to the head), he wasn't stopped from reaching and almost killing the officer.
that's realistic. people don't just drop like a sack of bricks after getting shot like they do in movies and tv. the only time that ever happens IRL is if you get shot directly in the heart or if you get shot in the head and it severs the brainsteam. otherwise you can keep on going just like bear did here, especially since the shot to his head was a graze that took away his ear lobe. and even then, i don't really understand the physics of that particular shot because the cop that shot him was on his side, so a 'graze' to the ear would still go through the back of his skull and out the other side. that kind of ear wound is generally only sustained from either the back or the front, unless the bullet is in the middle of some crazy ass ricochet.
0:46 - he must have been using some magic shotgun shells because nothing was ejected or loaded when he racked his gun. I guess he might have ejected the cartridge off-screen and not noticed his gun was empty but even then it would be silly for him to work the action again because, to his knowledge, he's just ejecting an unfired cartridge.
I think it’s just a continuity mistake. A lot of times when filming scenes where an actor is handling a firearm and not firing it, they’re usually holding a dummy gun or unloaded firearm(for safety reasons of course). Timeline wise it wouldn’t make sense for him to already be empty after shooting the 2 cops, but scenes like 0:46 will inevitably sneak through the editors room
@@dannygloversshotgun211 I guess I would classify it more as a mistake. The actor never should have worked the action of the shotgun because a spent cartridge should have been ejected. By working the action he just demonstrated that his shotgun was fully empty of any shells, fired or unfired -- nothing in the chamber and nothing in the magazine.
To be fair, cars DO go faster when you change gears, lol. Anyways, as someone who's worked in film his entire adult life, I can weigh in here. Odds are, these are two separate takes. One where the actor works the action earlier in the scene, and one where he works it later in the scene. The director probably liked the action in both parts of the scene, and stitched the bits together in the editing room, knowing full well there was an error, but preferring to keep the best emotions from both takes. It's a mistake, but it's actually the more professional move. The feel of the scene comes before small continuity errors. I have a saying when editing around these sorts of mistakes. "If anyone notices, we've done our jobs well." If these scene hadn't fucking rocked, you wouldn't have watched it so many times so as to notice. :)
At least the “invincible” guys with plot armor seems more realistic. He has a rifle and everyone else has pistols or shotguns. It does make it more believable. Good job.
I have never seen Fargo. I was just watching clips of shootouts from various movies and TV shows. _3:53__ has left me confused and intrigued beyond belief._
Amazing scene! But has Sioux Falls PD never done a stakeout before?? 90% of the cops on-scene are sitting around in their underwear! The sherif has the instincts to actually get in uniform & arm himself before things get crazy. Still, fun to see Ted Danson do so well with a full-on action scene
they were totally incompetent. Both sides were lured into each other by Hanzee pulling the strings but the cops weren’t expecting anyone until morning, the mobsters weren’t expecting them to be cops. being out of uniform was part of the “plan” but the old officer wasnt having it. so he suited up and was ready for action when the ambush came.
This was a sting. You can't watch this scene w/o knowing the proper set up. They're in their underwear bc they're expecting the iceholes later, not now. That's why they were playing cards and some sleeping. The Gerhardt mob got there early and ambushed em
Funny thing is Ben Schmidt - the cop who was protecting the witnesses and shot the two intruders from behind - was portrayed throughout the season as extremely cowardly and incompetent, yet he was smart enough to take good cover and he lived.
It's Fargo, weird shit happens for the sake of being weird and to add mystery to the plot. But, it's not a subplot because it's just two appearances when it merges into the plot, it's really more cameos than anything else.
It's NOT an M16. It's supposed to be a civilian AR15 SP1 rifle. We had TONS of those for sale in sporting good shops in 1979. The slab side upper and lower receiver and triangular handguard are the giveaway.
@@BurntPlaydoh that’s an sp1 Ar-15, the first of the Civilian AR-15s. Until the A2 came out in the early ‘80s, the triangle handguard was all you could get for full length rifles.
Bruh what the fuck is happening in this scene. So much is going on, a gang shooting at a motel, a random dude killing people left and right and a fucking alien saucer shows up in the middle of all of it 😂
Cops staying in motel. Gang assumes them to be rival gang and attacks. Native American man is gang hitman gone rogue, killing the don (old lady) and everyone else. Big man is old lady's son, aspirant for don's position. UFO is entirely unrelated to the series, but adds to its quirkiness Watch the series. Its awesome.
@@lookintoit4537 ive already started it, honestly the ufo during the gunfight is what did it for me 😂 so much shit going on then a alien Saucer appears lmao fucking what
Uhm.. Why the fuck was there a alien space ship there like that? They all saw it, it was really there and not some hallucination, yet they all just kept murdering each other anyway. Why is this in the show? lmao
to show that even a f'ing alien space ship can't make humans stop killing each other; as long as humans are free to decide what to do we will always keep on murdering. And that we are always been judged for our actions.
That UFO still fills me with awe and utter terror every time I see it. The image of this surreal object hovering over everything, violating all our expectations, is quite something. I guess they call it "megalophobia".
Watching this with no context, the UFO caught me really off guard. Curious if it was foreshadowed in anyway or if it was random even if I I watched the show?
It's a little random as in why the hell did the add a UFO to a dark comedy crime show but it works. Highly recommend you check out Fargo it's really good
Insanely unrealistic engagement outcomes here. Standing in the kill box without cover yet coming out victorious against multiple opponents in which several had cover and high ground. That Indian would not have survived.
Throughout the Season 2 episodes, he often just walked around killing people and never got even a paper cut. There's two sides to every coin, some people die without firing a shot.

This was the best scene out of all of the series’s
One of the guys in our coffee club lives in the motel they filmed this at. Cool to see it in a movie!
3:49 he was acting like a real bear there... 😂 😂
It's all fun and games until Hanzee gets involved. I always felt that his character's actions were more in the desire to cleanse himself of evil influence. It was all around him. Suffocating him. For decades. This was his exit strategy.
I hate when Hollywood does these elaborate shoot scenes, then 0:44 happens. Why is there no empty shell being ejected after he pumped the next shell?
4:18 Fargo is great for the small things. Like firing a gun with your pinky because it was easier to pick it up that way.
This illustrates why police don't want you getting too close to them. That bear was the whole way across the parking lot, and, even though he was hit by three shots (one to the head), he wasn't stopped from reaching and almost killing the officer.
that's realistic. people don't just drop like a sack of bricks after getting shot like they do in movies and tv. the only time that ever happens IRL is if you get shot directly in the heart or if you get shot in the head and it severs the brainsteam. otherwise you can keep on going just like bear did here, especially since the shot to his head was a graze that took away his ear lobe. and even then, i don't really understand the physics of that particular shot because the cop that shot him was on his side, so a 'graze' to the ear would still go through the back of his skull and out the other side. that kind of ear wound is generally only sustained from either the back or the front, unless the bullet is in the middle of some crazy ass ricochet.
@@gchovvard6265 Thanks for taking time to explain all that to me. It was very interesting! Learn something new every day.
I've never met bigger cowards than cops.
@@jessblues848 Lou is a pretty brave officer though, given the earlier confrontation with the family.
@jessblues848 I seriously don't think you'd be much better
0:46 - he must have been using some magic shotgun shells because nothing was ejected or loaded when he racked his gun. I guess he might have ejected the cartridge off-screen and not noticed his gun was empty but even then it would be silly for him to work the action again because, to his knowledge, he's just ejecting an unfired cartridge.
I think it’s just a continuity mistake. A lot of times when filming scenes where an actor is handling a firearm and not firing it, they’re usually holding a dummy gun or unloaded firearm(for safety reasons of course). Timeline wise it wouldn’t make sense for him to already be empty after shooting the 2 cops, but scenes like 0:46 will inevitably sneak through the editors room
@@dannygloversshotgun211 I guess I would classify it more as a mistake. The actor never should have worked the action of the shotgun because a spent cartridge should have been ejected. By working the action he just demonstrated that his shotgun was fully empty of any shells, fired or unfired -- nothing in the chamber and nothing in the magazine.
I love the recoiless action of the shotgun!!!
Hollywood cliches like neverending pistol magazines and cars that go faster when you change gears.
To be fair, cars DO go faster when you change gears, lol. Anyways, as someone who's worked in film his entire adult life, I can weigh in here. Odds are, these are two separate takes. One where the actor works the action earlier in the scene, and one where he works it later in the scene. The director probably liked the action in both parts of the scene, and stitched the bits together in the editing room, knowing full well there was an error, but preferring to keep the best emotions from both takes. It's a mistake, but it's actually the more professional move. The feel of the scene comes before small continuity errors. I have a saying when editing around these sorts of mistakes. "If anyone notices, we've done our jobs well." If these scene hadn't fucking rocked, you wouldn't have watched it so many times so as to notice. :)
Season 2 best of all 4 ❤️❤️❤️
Agreed
I prefer 1
@@seanisgone5413 Season 1 is amazing, I think Season 2 is best but I can't even argue with you cus Season 1 is also best season.
sucks that people dislike S3 which was also great
At least the “invincible” guys with plot armor seems more realistic. He has a rifle and everyone else has pistols or shotguns. It does make it more believable. Good job.
0:44 empty shotgun
I have never seen Fargo. I was just watching clips of shootouts from various movies and TV shows.
_3:53__ has left me confused and intrigued beyond belief._
0:45 no shell ejected 🤣 you're empty buddy
I was gonna say the same thing…
the music is just incredible
Aw, the scene cuts off before Mike Milligan and his henchmen arrive and nope the hell out of there.
"Okay then" is just the cherry on top
Lmao I love the random UFO cameo…
“Hey what’s up Earth, we come in peac-“
**gunfire**
“Understandable, have a great day ✌️”
Okay, this is the craziest shootout I've ever seen.
So cool, Henzee . . . .cooler than Clint himself ! You got to love thid character !
Amazing scene! But has Sioux Falls PD never done a stakeout before?? 90% of the cops on-scene are sitting around in their underwear! The sherif has the instincts to actually get in uniform & arm himself before things get crazy. Still, fun to see Ted Danson do so well with a full-on action scene
they were totally incompetent. Both sides were lured into each other by Hanzee pulling the strings but the cops weren’t expecting anyone until morning, the mobsters weren’t expecting them to be cops. being out of uniform was part of the “plan” but the old officer wasnt having it. so he suited up and was ready for action when the ambush came.
This was a sting. You can't watch this scene w/o knowing the proper set up. They're in their underwear bc they're expecting the iceholes later, not now. That's why they were playing cards and some sleeping. The Gerhardt mob got there early and ambushed em
Funny thing is Ben Schmidt - the cop who was protecting the witnesses and shot the two intruders from behind - was portrayed throughout the season as extremely cowardly and incompetent, yet he was smart enough to take good cover and he lived.
I haven't seen the show and this is a bizarre scene to watch without any context.
Man I got to watch this series
Ah, that famous shotgun ammo that sends you flying.
Why's the cop run towards the bearded guy like it's Middle-Earth? He has a gun, distance, and cover.
thanks rambo
I can think of a bigger problem with this scene....
This “Between Two Ferns” / “Sicario” crossover is LIT!
Can we all agree the whole UFO subplot was weird?
It didn't need to happen here. Not in this scene.
It's Fargo, weird shit happens for the sake of being weird and to add mystery to the plot. But, it's not a subplot because it's just two appearances when it merges into the plot, it's really more cameos than anything else.
Not really tbh. Alot of people try to find symbolism in the meaning of the UFO. The truth is, it's just a fucking Alien spacecraft, nbd.
UFO: dayum look at this big shootout at a motel lmao take some pics, make sure you use the lights
UFOs are apparently real now. So this actually is non-fiction.
Watching this with no context is a trip
It is much better when u watch the build up of the entire season
The sound effects are incredible
Hanzee is strait badass.
See that 222 door? Good stuff right there.
Aliens: look they're shooting each other again.
At least the last thing Bear saw was cool.
very well done gunshot sound effects
Hanzee hitting the metal stairs trying to shoot Lou sounded cool.
this series was awesome, i loved all seasons. 4th one didnt got me hooked tho...
Nothing was as gripping as the interrogation scene in the first season.
@@poopymcpoop9945 which one?
Hanzee good show
The ufo part had me 😳
2:37 casually tanks 2 gunshots like it's nothing 😭
4:07 the dust cover of m16 was open, then it was closed .
Aliens: “Look, intelligent life forms!!!”
*Bear’s head gets blown off*
Aliens: “…Let’s get out of here.”
Im pretty sure the cop with the Python fired a few more than 6 rounds before reloading.
Are you the guy that invented the MacPherson strut?
@@zarakdurrani7584 Can't say I've heard of the MacPherson strut
Wait, is that the same Motel from The Dead Don't Die? Everything looks so similar.
The shootout was so good, aliens showed up. >_
Aliens: "Oooohh... I can see y'all are busy. We'll come back later."
0:45 no cartridge ejection upon pumping of shotgun. Either it was empty and he didnt know, or the producers got sloppy.
Sloppy
Watching with zero context is absolutely insane
Gawd what a m16
Wait is this Fargo or damn stranger things
It's NOT an M16. It's supposed to be a civilian AR15 SP1 rifle. We had TONS of those for sale in sporting good shops in 1979. The slab side upper and lower receiver and triangular handguard are the giveaway.
I never saw the original Fargo but are UFO’s a part of the plot?
@@BurntPlaydoh that’s an sp1 Ar-15, the first of the Civilian AR-15s. Until the A2 came out in the early ‘80s, the triangle handguard was all you could get for full length rifles.
Gorbrek: See this, Hogurka? This is why we don’t come to Earth.
these RUclips short level muzzle flashes are so funny.
Short level? What are you talking about?
What!?
I've never seen this before, so that alien sh!t thru way the hell off😂🤣😂
I wonder if Ricky G realized they were cops before everyone else did.
Justice for Native Indians, Aboriginals and Palestinians and all the indegenous tribes who lost their land, dignity to the wild West😮
Bruh what the fuck is happening in this scene. So much is going on, a gang shooting at a motel, a random dude killing people left and right and a fucking alien saucer shows up in the middle of all of it 😂
Cops staying in motel. Gang assumes them to be rival gang and attacks. Native American man is gang hitman gone rogue, killing the don (old lady) and everyone else. Big man is old lady's son, aspirant for don's position. UFO is entirely unrelated to the series, but adds to its quirkiness
Watch the series. Its awesome.
@@lookintoit4537 ive already started it, honestly the ufo during the gunfight is what did it for me 😂 so much shit going on then a alien Saucer appears lmao fucking what
Para mi , el mejor episodio de ls tv en una serie de una temporada desde bua hace años
Uhm.. Why the fuck was there a alien space ship there like that? They all saw it, it was really there and not some hallucination, yet they all just kept murdering each other anyway. Why is this in the show? lmao
Unscripted. It was an actual UFO that came to the set while they were filming.
to show that even a f'ing alien space ship can't make humans stop killing each other; as long as humans are free to decide what to do we will always keep on murdering. And that we are always been judged for our actions.
That UFO still fills me with awe and utter terror every time I see it. The image of this surreal object hovering over everything, violating all our expectations, is quite something. I guess they call it "megalophobia".
3:44 dig your fingers into his gun shot wound
On his neck? Lou probably couldn't reach and wouldn't have much strength to do anything while he's getting strangled/concussed.
Watching this with no context, the UFO caught me really off guard. Curious if it was foreshadowed in anyway or if it was random even if I I watched the show?
The UFO appeared several times before this
It's a little random as in why the hell did the add a UFO to a dark comedy crime show but it works. Highly recommend you check out Fargo it's really good
Insanely unrealistic engagement outcomes here.
Standing in the kill box without cover yet coming out victorious against multiple opponents in which several had cover and high ground.
That Indian would not have survived.
Throughout the Season 2 episodes, he often just walked around killing people and never got even a paper cut. There's two sides to every coin, some people die without firing a shot.
i'm glad I stayed at a Holiday Inn express last night
3:29 that was the sickest bullet dodge I have ever seen!
Just don't try in real life, you might just dip your head right into the path of a torso shot...
What a show!
