It's good to see you again, Mrs. Lyon. That... That's not accurate. Ah, well, first of all, I recognize you.

Having just watched the Fargo season 5 finale, I have to say I didn't know I was going to tear up from watching a 500 year old man eating a biscuit. But I was moved by his story, by how oblivious Wayne was throughout all of it (which was also kind of hilarious to me), and by how forgiving Dot was.
She forgives not one but two of her kidnappers. I wish I saw more of Gator in this episode, he turned his dad in, showed contrition and reconciled with Dot. I couldn't really ask for a gentler for him ending given how unsympathetic he was most of the season. Yes, he lost his eyes and is in jail, but he kept his life and perhaps found a bit of his soul.
My heart breaks for Witt Farr, though. He deserved so much better, but he was just too good and too fair, if that's possible. His last scene really stings. The only other character whose ending broke my heart like that was Nikki Swango's.
Roy finally being weak, powerless, and periodically beaten by his inmates is the ending he deserves.
This was the first time I watched Fargo as the season aired. I'm going to miss it on Tuesday nights.

Fargo: Oedipus and the Sphinx
Tumblr media
"The Greek sphinx had a woman’s face and breasts, a lion’s body, and a bird’s wings."
"The legendary Greek prince Oedipus confronts the malevolent Sphinx, who torments travelers with a riddle: What creature walks on four legs in the morning,
Tumblr media
two legs at noon,
Tumblr media
and three legs in the evening?
Tumblr media
Remains of victims who answered incorrectly litter the foreground. (The solution is the human, who crawls as a baby, strides upright in maturity, and uses a cane in old age.)"

Good stories have 3 types of characters. The characters who represent what we should strive to be. The characters who represent the people who are incapable of change. And the characters with the potential to change.
This literary device has fascinated me since I was a high school student reading "In the Heat of the Night". It was then that I realized that some characters are like "Sam Wood"; they start life off with prejudices but have the potential to change their way of thinking and become better individuals.
I have carried this with me ever since, trying to see the humanity in everyone and trying to first understand the cause of someone's actions before jumping to conclusions. 
This does not mean that I condone crimes or racism or prejudices of any sort. People should be held accountable for their actions. Period. However, I also try to uphold an optimistic view of the world and hope that with proper information and facts, those with that potential are able to change in time.
Part of why I enjoyed Fargo season 5 so much was because the characters were complex. No one was perfect. Everyone was fallable.
More specifically, we had several characters who represented the values we should strive for in ourselves: Dot, Witt, Wayne, and Indira. These characters showed us their humanity and willingness to put others before themselves.
We also had characters who represented those who cannot change: Roy and Odin are but two examples. These characters represent those whose view of the world is so twisted that they do not possess the humanity to ever change.
But we also had characters who represented those with the potential to change: Gator, Lorraine, and even Ole Munch. Each started the season set in their ways. They only had one goal in mind but through the events that happened, either to them or to someone close to them, they found it inside themselves to see their world differently; to consider the world from someone else's point of view and how their actions could affect it. In Ole Munch's case, it was the kindness and forgiveness offered by Dot that gives him his path forward. For Lorraine, it was the solidarity of being a woman, and seeing the abuse Dot suffered that allowed her a change of heart. And for Gator, it was his blindness that finally set him free of trying to be like his father.
These characterizations were intentional and, matter-of-factly, a product of excellent writing. 
In my Tumblr world, I like to dive deeper than the good vs evil we see on the surface and try to understand the characters' motivations and trajectories. It just so happened that an actor that I respect was playing one of these morally gray characters. This is why my focus on Gator was so heavy. I enjoyed trying to understand his character and appreciated the way Joe Keery was able to depict it on screen.
I have been raised to see the world from others' point of view before I make conclusions about who they are and how they act. I try to look for the humanity in everyone, even if it may not be immediately apparent.
Tumblr is also my safe space. It is a place I have turned to for 13 years to express my love of fandom and to connect with others who share this excitement. If I have ever made anyone uncomfortable on here, I apologize. It was never my intention. Politics has no place on my blog, and it never will. This is my safe space for enjoying fandom away from real life. I will not judge other Tumblr users, and I expect the same in return. After all, every single one of us is fallable in some way. We can all grow and be better, and my choices, both online and in real life, will always be made with others in mind. 
Tumblr is not a place for judgment before we get to know others. It is a place to respectfully share our love of fandoms without the fear of that judgment or of being labeled. It is a place to support one another. This is how I have, and always will, conduct myself while on this site, and I appreciate all the lovely people I have met along the way. ❤️

If you're curious about the contents of the news articles that Witt Farr was looking at when researching Gator, here's blowups of the images.
The top picture is the article about Gator and his history of corruption. As you can see it gives us more insight into what the Tillman machine does with the Stark County sheriff's office (and is now implying that the "Fixing Place" is a place where Roy dumps dead bodies).
The bottom one is the article about the upcoming town hall debate between Roy and his opposition who is running to replace him as sheriff, which we saw a glimpse of in the trailer:
