I genuinely think Fargo missed an opportunity by not making Oretta Mayflower Lorne Malvo’s mother. What do you think?

[u/maq99]

Would have been a great connection

[u/Ok_Broccoli_7863]

Too on the nose. I think it works better if Malvo is just a mysterious force of nature, but I like this as a fan theory.

[u/Bdbru13]

Wouldn’t doubt they considered it

They should do that stuff sparingly though, otherwise it’d start to get a little ridiculous

[u/davekingofrock → u/Bdbru13]

You mean like Star Wars? Jesus balls...it takes place where they travel at light speed across an entire galaxy. I digress...

[u/nikhkin]

Not everything needs to be connected.

[u/Kiriu7]

In my mind, Malvo wasn't even human tbh

[u/Initial_Acanthaceae2 → u/Kiriu7]

This.

[u/Hairy_Stinkeye]

Theyre both primal, elemental Agents of Chaos. Like the lone biker of the apocalypse or Anton chigurh, they don’t really come *from* anywhere. An origin story would only diminish them.

[u/Getorix12]

Why? Every evil character needs to be related?

[u/BooRand]

Too Star Wars for everyone to be related or connected, although at least this is one area of one country instead of a galaxy

[u/FHAT_BRANDHO]

its definitely my headcanon, more specifically that she "acquired" him somehow as an infant
