A story of family, religion, hatred, oil and madness, focusing on a turn-of-the-century prospector in the early days of the business.
The tune that Plainview croons to the boy after the explosion is the traditional Gaelic song "Gradh Geal Mo Chridh".
Plainview:
I told you I would to eat you!
Eli Sunday:
We're family!
Plainview:
I told you I would eat you up!
In the bowling alley scene, Eli is clearly visible placing Daniel's refused drink above the central panel on the paneled divider. After the cut-away to Daniel, the drink is not above the central panel, but above the panel adjacent to the central one.
