The plot thickens! Hart and Cohle Characters develop more and the major plot twist takes the story into a new direction. The viewer discovers the capture of a serial killer is a sub-plot, a rouse to the major story. Hart is covered for by Cohle. There are limits of what Hart can say or do because of his debt to his partner. Cohle is an ice cold personality. Suspicions turn towards Cohle as the killer. The script, directing, and acting blend into a smooth, riveting, series making the viewer wanting to watch more. H B O has raised the bar for television quality. I give "The Secret Fate of All Life" a 10 out of 10. Let us see if the suspect's prophecy of everything in life goes full circle goes to fruition. A must see episode.
